Is there a negative effect of masturbation?

Question

If you masturbate close to daily, is there any long term negative effects?

Answer 1

Maybe. You can develop nutritional deficiencies in the long term if you masturbate excessively. Ejaculation takes a lot of energy and nutrients, and you need to take care not to deplete your body. I try and do it between one and three times per week. I used to do it once per day, but that seemed like too much masturbation with no break. It got boring fast, and occasionally I felt like I was sucked dry.

Something else you need to watch out for is losing sensitivity. If you masturbate too much, with too tight a grip, or with bad lubrication (like soap), you can damage your skin or lose sensitivity in your penis. It will usually return, but in the meantime you will not get as much pleasure from sex.

I would stick to about three times per week, or whatever you feel like doing. If you feel bad in general, you should not masturbate and make things harder on your body. Have a nice day!

Answer 2

Everyone that I know of masturbates, it is completely normal. Nothing has ever happened to them or me, So just do what you do and forget all the negativity about it, because people don't like to admit that they do in fact masturbate, it's human nature.

Answer 3

No, absolutely!
Otherwise we all should have problem or be impotent even!
On the contrary, scientists says that a regular sexual life (masturbation too) helps the reproductive system to keep healthy, increasing performance (libido) too.
Somebody even plays more time in a day and there’s no correlation with impotency or erection.
Masturbation is a normal event, and with the age and stable relation should decrease till vanish slowly.

Answer 4

There's nothing wrong with this, totally routine. Really, if there was something wrong with it, don't you think there would be some hoopla about it?? Millions of guys do it daily! Personally, the only thing I can see going wrong is maybe it being sore from excessive use, LOL.

By the way, I agree with illusions, it keeps the prostate healthy...kinda like flushing out your system so there's no buildup of anything. ;-)

Answer 5

Only if the boss catches you.

Actually, studies indicate the the male should have about 20 ejaculations per month to reduce the risk of early prostate cancer. Every male will get prostate cancer if he lives long enough, the goal is to delay this as long as possible. Since this is one way that feels good too, go for it!

Answer 6

a bad habit when you get older. for instance, when you are 50 years old, you still have a habit of masturbating daily. Then you will die soon. You will have no control in sex because you can have that easily whenever you like. This is not good either. Besides that, masturbating is good for your health.

Answer 7

i say no but here is what experts say

Frequent masturbation and ejaculation stimulate acetylcholine/parasympathetic nervous functions excessively, resulting in the over production of sex hormones and neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine, dopamine and serotonin. Abundant and unusually amount of these hormones and neurotransmitters can cause the brain and adrenal glands to perform excessive dopamine-norepinephrine-epinephrine conversion and turn the brain and body functions to be extremely sympathetic. In other words, there is a big change of body chemistry when one excessively pratices masturbation

Answer 8

Negative effect....yeah if you get caught by your mother or girlfriend they may think you are a weirdo!! Lock the door!!!

Answer 9

It actually keeps the prostate healthy. Just don't slam the thing until it's raw.

Answer 10

I would think that depends on when, where, why and whom. Statisically it is probably normal. Some have referred this to; "Cleaning the pipes"
