I don't feel the need to masturbate or have sex. I don't do it for months and sex only seems boring. I never had an orgasm. I can't feel any pleasure in both of things and it's kind of affecting my self esteem because I see everyone getting happy with it and I just don't enjoy it.
I don't even feel horny anymore.
What's wrong with me?
Sorry for the bad english.

Have you started taking any type of medication recently that could be affecting your sex drive? If it's really bothering you, you should talk to a doctor about it. Sometimes depression alone can make your sex drive completely go away.
However, as we get older, our bodies change. If you honestly don't enjoy it then don't do it, and definitely don't feel pressured to do it.

Maybe you can go to a sex therapeutist or sexologist or the family doctor to talk about your problem?

Completely agree with all of the above, especially the last part.
If it's bothering you, speak privately to a qualified medical professional. If not, then don't let it bother you. Maybe you just aren't with the right person, or maybe you just don't get sexual aroused - We're all different, and it's a private topic. If you have a partner you love, that can complicate matters I understand, and I refer back to my previous Doctor statement.

The suggestions below are all good.
There is one other possibility. You could be asexual, which means sex just isn't something you have any desire to do. It isn't common, but there are people who just don't want to have anything to do with sex.

It could be caused by stress, or depression or you might just be going through a phase. If it's really bothering you, you should talk to a doctor.

I think it might be good to talk to someone, but we are all different, some are more, well, horny than others, but months seems like a very long time...

I think that I will try to talk to the doctor. I think that this happens since I started to feel more depressed and I also started taking the birth control pills due to my acne. I really hope thats the problem because it's bothering me and I'm getting more more depressed.
I can't feel anything.
Thanks for your help, now I'm just trying to get the courage to talk to a doctor about this, is kind of weird.

I am in the medical profession Kitcate and all I can add is that's what a doctor is trained to do, so please do pluck up the courage and make an appointment to see him/her, or a health professional. He or she may well refer you to a specialist to get to the root of your problem(s). Good luck!

You shouldn't feel pressured to enjoy masturbating or having sex simply because everyone else does. You are an individual, and maybe this is just how it is for you. You my want to bring it up at your next GYN appointment (if you go to them) if it's bothering you, otherwise there's nothing wrong with just plain not feeling it.
However, since it sounds like your self esteem and depression may be connected to it, I think talking to someone trusted (especially a doctor) would be best for you

maybe you should take a day to do all the things that have, in the past, made you feel pleasure.
just take a day to try to discover what makes you feel good
