Is masturrbation bad for health? if so how?

Answer 1

Occasional masturbation in men does not have physical side effects. Chronic masturbation can lead to skin abrasions and, depending on how rough you are, broken blood vessels.

Masturbation can cause physiological problems. You are training your self that physical pleasure does not involve other people. You are also training your self to ejaculate as quickly as possible to reach the pleasure of orgasm. Your girlfriend/wife will not thank you for that!

You probably know it is viewed as a sin in ALL major religions. Remember, every time you masturbate, God kills a kitten.

Answer 2

No it's actually good for the female body.

Answer 3

It is not at all bad for health.It is actually an outlet for your sexual feelings.It is better to involve in masturbation than to make some woman pregnant ! You have the right to scratch any part of your body.But dont overdo it and make it an ulcer.There are many myths about masturbation.They are false and completely baseless.The following are some true facts about masturbation.Masturbation does not affect eyesight. This myth probably originated because boys often start having to wear glasses at about the same age they start masturbating.It doesn't cause acne. Like the eyesight myth, this is a case of two things that happen at the same time, even though one doesn't cause the other. Semen is a fully renewable resource. When you ejaculate semen, your body simply makes more — the same way your body makes more saliva after you spit.So enjoy it without hesitating but enjoy it limited.

Answer 4

if you are a boy then masturbation is the greatest thing to do...every guy has to unload themselves and get off at least once a day. If you are a girl then im not sure but should be cool also. I am a guy and i masturbate every day and get off and when i do i feel better than letting it all build up. Im not sure how but i know it works.

Answer 5

I copy and pasted this..

Masturbation For Good Health
"We have reason to believe that man first walked upright to free his
hands for masturbation." -- Lily Tomlin

Not only is it physically healthy but As one Christian said:
"Isn't it incredible that one of God's most beautiful gifts, masturbation, is held in such contempt by those who wear their religion on their arm. No one has ever become pregnant, impregnated someone, become diseased, or been physically harmed because of the act. I'd like to meet the person who has passed puberty without ever doing it."

Highlights From "Men's Health" Magazine
You are not insane. You are not blind. You have not grown hair on your palms. You are a completely competent member of society - despite all the times you've done it. Kinsey and the latest Sex in America report show there's a whole lot of shaking going on. Today's sex researchers have come to grips with the fact that masturbation has important physical and emotional benefits for both men and women.

Getting a Grip
"Masturbation is a normal, natural activity throughout life," says Robert Pollack, a psychology professor at the University of Georgia. It may even contribute to mental health and not doing it may lead to psychosexual problems.

For men, masturbation or regular sex is good for the prostate and can prevent painful prostate blockage. For women it can help reduce cramping and for both men and women has been shown to have a healthy effect on the immune systems as well as reducing overall tension and helping emotions.

Besides being healthy for the body, a private grope can help both a man and a woman better understand their own sexuality. If you can learn to lie back and enjoy it and really pay attention to the pleasure it gives your body - no one knows better than you what gives you maximum pleasure - you can share that knowledge with a partner and have more mutually fulfilling sexual pleasure sharing. The self-awareness gained from masturbation makes it a central feature of many sex therapy programs.

Evolution may have even designed us to be masturbators. Notice when you are standing where your hand falls if you hang it in front of you. Apes do it, dogs and cats do it, elephants do it and even porcupines have been observed doing it, probably very carefully. One reason we may be so programmed, paradoxically, is to increase our odds of producing offspring. Older sperm can lose their ability to swim well. A good masturbatory flush guarantees fresh, robust sperm for mating.

Storing seminal fluids for long periods can also cause prostate congestion, which in turn can lead to urinary and ejaculatory pain. Regular ejaculations, either through masturbation or intercourse, can help ward off this condition, also called non-specific prostatitis and , for obvious reasons, "sailor's disease" and "priest's disease."

Masturbation is also an ever-renewable health resource. In fact, the people who start the earliest and do it the most often are the ones who do it longest into old age. So, as with all sexual activity, its "use it or lose it."

Another reason why nature designed us to masturbate is to strengthen PC muscles, much like "Kegel" exercises. This is especially true in females where strong PC muscles are practically the sole factor in whether labor is easy and fast or long and difficult. Females masturbating regularly with multiple orgasms would develop strong PC muscles and should have easier labor.

Another potential concern is reliance on masturbation for sexual pleasure to the exclusion of intimacy with another person. But in such cases, masturbation is probably a symptom, not a cause, of larger psychological barriers to intimacy. Most people want relationships. But if you're scared of them, you might stick with masturbation exclusively.

Answer 6

Yes masturbation is very very dangerous I can surely warn you masturbation can make you thin and skinny and it is also the reason for pimples, marks at your face if you love your face you want to live a happy life I can suggest you to don't masturbate. I was too skinny at the time and there was a lot of pimples in my face. I was trying every thing to get rid of than but I couldn't. Then I was masturbating once or twice in a week. I was also founding on internet that masturbation is dangerous or not but on internet almost every one was telling that masturbation is not dangerous but it is all wrong. masturbation is very very dangerous don't do it.
