Is jacking off bad for your health?

Question

This is weird question...

I heard from people around me jerking off to much can result in low self steam is this true? And what are the negative sides of it?

Answer 1

Masterbation is neither good nor bad, depending on how often you can afford to do so without affecting the functions of other organs. In one recently published study, ninety-five percent of men and eighty-seven percent of women have practiced masterbation occasionally. The study further indicated those men usually experience an orgasm when they masturbate and learn how to masturbate before engaging in any sexual intercourse. Another important finding showed males who masturbate frequently during adolescence continue this sexual behavior into their adulthood with the frequency increasing.

Is this addictive behavior of female masterbation and male masterbation harmful to your body? To answer this question, one has to understand how ejaculating works. An orgasm or ejaculation discharges the bioelectric energy (bio-energy) stored by the parasympathetic nervous subsystem via the sympathetic nervous action. It is supposed to discharge the bio-energy stored in the sexual organs. This is why an orgasm is associated with a burst and subsequent release of tension. When the sexual organs are insufficiently charged, the sympathetic system will draw the energy from other organs, deactivating the associated organs and slowing down the response of the Central Nervous System (CNS) which is the commander of the endocrine and nervous function. So, frequent masterbation and consequent ejaculation will result in depleting other organs of bio-energy since the sexual organs can't support the release of bio-energy being drawn from over-masterbation.

The association of male masterbation and female masterbation with guilt and anxiety is partly due to the ignorance of the fact masterbation is not harmful. These negative sentiments are partly due to centuries of religious teachings that masturbating is sinful. In addition, many of us have received negative messages about masterbation from our parents or have even been punished when caught masturbating as children. The cumulative effect of these influences is usually confusion and guilt, which is often difficult to sort out. However, the only time masterbation can be 'bad' or harmful is when it becomes compulsive. Compulsive masterbation, like all other compulsive behaviors, is a sign of an emotional problem and needs to be addressed by a mental health specialist. Sex, of course, is extremely pleasurable and all things pleasurable are addictive. Over-masterbation can cause serious problems that aren't limited to the bedroom. Frequent masterbation should be addressed.

Sexual activity is healthy whether it is solo or with a partner. There are many health benefits including good prostate health. Low self esteem is a result of negative relationships with others and has nothing to do with masturbation. I cannot think of any negative things associated with it. Have a healthy year. Rock on!

Answer 3

If you're whackin' off in front of the Hell's Angels, it might be extremely hazardous to your health. However, if you have the good sense to lock yourself in the bathroom it might not be a life threatening ordeal. On the other hand, if you fall over and crack your head on the toilet, who knows?

Answer 4

Masturbate As often as you like, just don’t over do it!

Explore your body find out other routines and try different techniques so that you don’t get bored such as


Try experimenting with your hands to make those inches feel good. Once you master I don’t mean just plain ole jacking it, try using two hands, hand switching, using your hips, double twist with both hands, rub your ball in circular motions as your masturbating not hard but gentle circler motions, you can even pull on them be gentle until you get used to it, use your imagination and act on it.

You can also use toys to get different sensations such as coc*rings and other toys maybe even butt plugs it just heightens the sensation

Enjoy yourself! :)
I say only a guy knows how to please a guy! So ask one of your male friends…

Get back to me and let me know how’s it going. :)

I hope this helps.

Answer 5

It's cheaper than raising kids or curing STDs. Chill. It hasn't given anybody blindness or hairy palms since the early 20th Century.

Just make sure you pay more attention to book learning and your stock holdings and you'll do OK.

Answer 6

None, man. The person told you this was some adult who thinks it's wrong to do, so they just lied to you. They want to scare you so you listen to them.
Jacking off helps even with pimples sometimes, and always keeps your stress level down.

Answer 7

You know what I actually heard from my Health teacher at the college that it's good for your health

Answer 8

low self esteem if you feel guilt, if you dont feel guilt about it, i dont think it will cause you any problem in that area, if you dont use something like cooking oil or baby oil to keep from making abrasions on your penis it will hurt, if you do it a lot eventually you wont be able to be pleased by normal sex with a woman, because you will only climax with your hand, otherwise it might distract you from doing things you should be doing, like studying. but it isnt really harmful if you dont let it be.

Answer 9

doing that everytime on end is bad for you because it lowers blood levels. And plus i makes you sleepy and forgetful. When I was 12, I used to go up to 7 times a day and it made me fall asleep in class.

Answer 10
