Not just sexually-transmitted infections, unprotected sex also comes with the risk of unwanted pregnancies. And while using a condom is the best way to kill two birds with one stone, let’s face it: it’s hardly anyone’s favourite prophylactic. So how can you then prevent a pregnancy?

In this episode of Drama Down Under, Dr Niveditha Manokaran and Meghna Kriplani talk about the many benefits of masturbation for women, why there’s nothing dirty about it, and how you—our dear listeners—can practice self care by exploring self pleasure.
