what are the bad effects of masturbating?

Question

i defianly know there should be bad affects of masturbating. i know the good affects but i want to know the bad effects.

Answer 1

it's a sin.

Answer 2

Not the "you'll go blind stuff". Or Larry the Cable guy suing Hustler Magazine for causing Carpal Tunnel! ..

1. psycho-social withdrawal from actual or potential life mate
2. excess masturbation reduces the desire and conviction to pursue, it is believed partly because of reduction in serum testosterone as the result of shooting down the sink.
3. in ability to perform when actual sex occurs because of stimulation differences.

Some may have a "religious" issue and guilt can be a very detrimental problem for some. If you feel guilty for jerking off excessively then don't do it so much. Too much of anything is bad. Same holds true with this.

Good news is when not done in excess it can improve performance as well. excessive is more the 2 times per week.

You might check out some real scientific studies, don't believe the old wive's tales you'll get from a bunch of amateurs on Yahoo threads. it's not all bad. Some people have "moral issues" with this subject. They are entitled to their beliefs, and I won't discount the fact that moral reasoning effects psycho-sexual health. If you have a moral problem with it because of your belief systems, then you might not want to imbibe. The puritanical belief systems that think the "manseed" should be saved for breeding with your spouse. To each their own. Sex is God given, and I expect the God of my understanding doesn't have the same view as that of the biblical literalists. Generally those that preach against porn have been those who probably have that guilt system. Porn can be problematic for many. And some do use it much as an addict to alcohol. Anything to excess, drugs, sex, gambling, eating can cause problems. Duh..

I read a correlational study where there was a reduction in the incidence of prostate cancers and incontinences as one ages with normal or above normal masturbation throughout life. So it'd ain't all bad.

Answer 3

this may sound really awkward but its really good advise i got when i asked the same question from my doctor.

take a pic of you penis full erect.. keep it safe dont want it fall on wrong hands...(pun intended) any ways ..after a couple of months of masturbation, then again take a picture of your penis..

now compare both the pics.. the results will be visible..trust me if you will not stop it completely ..you will atleast cut down on masturbation a lot...

one of the side effects of the masturbation is that, due to excessive masturbation the pee hole gets bigger.. hence the shooting power reduces.. some people say that that can seriously affect when trying to concieve.. as older you get the less potent your sperm gets.. if the shooting power is low the the sperm may take longer to reach the female eggs.

another sideeffect is that if you masturbate really hard and rough then you might hurt your skin and the sensitive tissues and muscle.. always remember the penis is made up of tender muscle. so treat it well.

also ask doctors.. my doctor told me that if you masturbate really rough and hard when you are teenager 14-18.. the you can seriously hurt your penis as the body develops most during these years and one serious injury can affect the length, girth and as well make it go side ways .. some bent is natural but excessive is not healthy.

so i know that no one stops masturbating .. but next time " if " you masturbate.. take care of your little buddy.. he is your best friend.. if you abuse him too much .. then he will let you down when you get old.

Answer 4

A messy blanket or a messy hand LOL.... No bad side effects from masturbation accept.... you'll start walking sideways after awhile, hahah sorry just another joke!! Nope there are no side effects cheer up and masterbate away!!

Answer 5

The only bad effect is when you regret after masturbating

Answer 6

the only bad affects are that u might become addicted which is rare and that if u do it to much your penis may become a little raw but just use lubricant there arent really bad effects.

Answer 7

You counterfeit the sex that was given for you to have with a wife only.
Here is an example.
Lets say you do it to a lady you fantasize about that you see in pornography.
You get your quick good feeling when the endorphins are released in your brain at climax.
Here is the kicker.
Now, every time you try to have legitimate sex, since you have ruined the awe of doing it the first time with a woman you intend to spend the rest of your life with, most men will not be satisfied with sex unless they do other things to heighten the sexual experience so that it feels as good as the first time.
See, with a lifetime partner, it feels just as good every time because that is the only sex you know.
Does that mean all hope is lost?
Absolutely not.
God can heal the misuse of our sex as men, however, it takes work on our part to recognize the problems and retrain our minds about how we think about sex and to train our eyes to quickly move away from the temptation to lust after real or fantasized women.
It is the same as the junkie who is trying to get the feeling from the first high on crystal meth, they cannot achieve it.
So we dupe ourselves into trading the truth for a lie and that never satisfies.
Have a blessed day.

Answer 8

The only bad thing about masturbating is you can't get enough of it.

Answer 9

the only bad effect I know is that if a willing woman comes along a few minutes later, you may not be able to get an erection right away.

Answer 10

there is only some bad side effects if you do it too much...

such as pre mature ejaculation..

anxiety

and

no energy to do other things in your daily life..

again thats in excess.. you would have to be doing it way too much for your own good.. and if you are young thats a hard thing to do.

dont be worried about it just dont be a fiend about it either you will be okay.

Answer 11

bad effects of masturbating can be related to mind
