It's perfectly safe. In fact, it's safer than having sex with someone else. Wishing you a very happy sex life with yourself! ;-)

It is held in many mental health circles that masturbation can relieve depression and lead to a higher sense of self-worth (Hurlbert & Whittaker, 1991). Masturbation can also be particularly useful in relationships where one partner wants more sex than the other — in which case masturbation provides a balancing effect and thus a more harmonious relationship.
On July 16, 2003, an Australian research team led by Graham Giles of The Cancer Council published a medical study [5] which concluded that frequent masturbation by males may help prevent the development of prostate cancer. The study also indicated that this would be more helpful than ejaculation through sexual intercourse because intercourse can transmit diseases that may increase the risk of cancer instead.
Masturbation is also seen as a sexual technique that protects individuals from the risk of contracting sexually transmitted diseases such as AIDS. Support for such a view, and for making it part of the sex education curriculum led to the dismissal of US Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders during the Clinton administration.
Some people actually consider masturbation as a cardiovascular workout. And while doctors have no proof of this actually being true, those suffering from cardiovascular disorders (particularly those recovering from myocardial infarction, or heart attacks) should resume physical acitivity (including sexual intercourse and masturbation) gradually and with the frequency and rigor in which their physical status will allow.

If that was true most of the population would be continuously sick from masturbation. Probably 93% maybe higher of the population masturbates and I leave women in there along with the men. It can not affect your health negatively but may actually relieve the pressure of having to find someone to perform with and ultimately keep you happier.

Lucky you! better this way so that you can masturbate 3 times per day. With a girlfriend help, you can only make once max per day because you have to spend time for her as well.
best lucks to you. Keep doing as your wishes

All I will say is this. At least you are saving yourself from getting any "std's". I don't care otherwise where, when and why you masturbate, that choice is yours. If you were my child, I'd rather you masturbate than to screw every sleazy woman around. Think about it, its not all that bad is it??

Masturbation is not safe, its a psychological disorder kinda. Try other stimulants like commercial television and car magazines. Good luck!

No, masturbation cannot cause a problem with your health. Neither can sexual intercourse, unless there is a underlying STD somewhere in the act.

Oh goodness no.. it is not safe at all.
Want proof? Look around you... don't you see all those sick, deformed, blind men? Why... they're all walking around holding the reigns to a seeing eye dog in their hairy palms. Have you even talked to another man? Why... they're all half crazy from doing it so often.

Masturbation is safe but too much is not.
Take it easy little guy.
In traditional chinese medicine it is believed that everytime you ejaculate you lose "jing" or essence. Essence is not easily replacable. The more jing you lose the quicker you age.
This you can research online. read about sexual qigong.
