masturbation is harmful for sex power and penis hardness?

There is nothing harmful about self pleasure.  It is a healthy practice for most men and can actually help with your sex life. It does not decrease your styaying power or sperm count either.  If anything it makes you more aware how it works and gives you more control when using it.

HELL NO!! That's just some crazy myth some perverted person spread to curb the young and haha old from pleasuring themselves. It's normal in fact, not only does masturbation help you understand what makes you feel good but also helps build stronger hand, wrist and forearm muscle!!! I say keep up the good work!

In general, it is not harmful. There is nothing physically damaging about masterbating. Its not going to make you sterile, or use up your sperm, or anything like that.\n\nIf masterbation becomes compulsive, you are spending a lot of time masterbating that you should be spending on other life activities, or if you masterbate at the expense of interpersonal relationships then it can be harmful to you socially or emotionally.

• Masturbation is not bad for your health. It won’t make you go blind, insane, or bald, give you spots, stunt your growth, or turn you into a pervert.\n\n \n\n• Masturbation can be good for you as it helps relieve stress. It also causes your body to release endorphins (pleasure hormones) which make you more chilled-out.

Masturbation is a normal thing for people to do. Nothing harmful about spanking the monkey every now and than. It said to be good to masturbate to get old sperm out and new sperm in if you don't have sex yet in life.

If you meant the masturb*tion, I say:\nNo, you should run no significant risk.\nAnybody acts according to his sexuality and lust.\nA friend of mine had anaemia after one year he was been mastu*bating 3-4 times in a day.\nBut it even depends by your body-build too. \nMasturbating can be done as frequently as you wish as long as it does not interfere with your life.\nDon’t worry, just act as you feel and enjoy!

No, you'll be fine.  Just eat well and get plenty of sleep.  Masturbation doesn't help nor hurt.

"SIDE" Effects Of Masturbation:\nhttp://www.mckinley.uiuc.edu/handouts/masturbation.html\n\nARE THERE SIDE EFFECTS?\n\nThere are no harmful side effects of masturbation. Medical science has debunked many myths formally associated with masturbation, such as hair growing on the palms, insanity, or that masturbation will drain excessive energy from the body. \n\nSome people report feeling guilty about masturbating. Negative feelings associated with any behavior can threaten a person’s health and well being. \n\nThe American medical community pronounced masturbation as normal in the 1972 publication Human Sexuality. \n\nWHY DO PEOPLE MASTURBATE?\nReasons given by people who masturbate include:\n\nTo experience pleasure \n\nTo relieve tension (sexual tension or general tension) \n\nTo relieve stress \n\nTo engage in sex when a partner is unavailable or does not want to have sex \n\nTo relax \n\nTo learn about what feels good to them and how they like to be stimulated or pleasured \n\nMYTHS:\nThe following are myths relating to masturbation that are unfounded in medical and social science.\n\nOnly people, who cannot find sexual partners; or who are socially inadequate masturbate. \n\nMasturbation leads to physical problems such as mental illness and growing hair on your palms. \n\nMasturbation “ruins” a person for partner sex. \n\nMen will run out of semen or sperm if they masturbate excessively. \n\nOthers, including medical doctors and sexual partners, will be able to tell if you masturbate. \n\nHEALTH BENEFITS OF MASTURBATION:\nA number of studies have proven the benefits of self-pleasuring to mental, social and physical health.\n\nMasturbation alleviates premenstrual tension for many women. \n\nMasturbation provides a healthy sexual outlet for people who choose to abstain from sex with partners or who do not currently have available sexual partners. \n\nMasturbation can be a route to safer sex, to help prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, including HIV. \n\nMasturbation allows for sexual pleasuring for those who are not ready to engage in vaginal, anal or oral sex. \n\nIncreases blood flow to the genital region, which can help overall sexual functioning. \n\nMasturbation can induce sleep. \n\nMasturbation allows people to become familiar and comfortable with their body. \n\nMasturbation is often suggested as a therapeutic technique for overcoming sexual dysfunction. \n\nFor women, it can help them learn how to achieve orgasm. \n\nFor men, it can help them increase ejaculatory control and manage rapid or delayed ejaculation. \n\nMasturbation can help alleviate stress. \n\nCAN A PERSON BECOME ADDICTED OR MASTURBATE TOO MUCH?\nPeople often wonder about the normal amount of masturbation. Each person must decide for himself or herself how much to masturbate. Professionals agree that there are no physical or mental implications for frequent masturbation, unless it is symptomatic of an obsessive/compulsive disorder (OCD). Symptoms of OCD are repeatedly performing a behavior to the extent that it interferes with daily functioning, professional responsibilities, or personal relationships.\n\nBehaviors that are performed to reduce stress or alleviate tension, including masturbation, are not considered symptomatic of a disorder unless they interfere with a person’s daily personal or professional life or hinder a person from fulfilling their responsibilities and commitments\n\n\n\nEFFECTS OF OVER-MASTURBATION:\nhttp://www.4-men.org/overmasturbation.html\nFrequent masturbation and ejaculation stimulate acetylcholine/parasympathetic nervous functions. Excessive stimulation can result in over production of sex hormones and neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine, dopamine and serotonin.\n\nAbundant and unusually large 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 t

none what-so-ever, you don't get hairy palms, or go to hell or all those other myths out there. Masturbation really puts you in tune with your body, so that when you are with a physical person, you know what you like and can communicate it with him/her, verbally, or subtly, your choice. Personally, I think it makes you a better lover. Keep it up! =) (if your male, pardon the pun)

Well some doctors say that if you masturbate then you lower your chances of testicular cancer, which is awesome, so I guess you could assume that since porn makes people wank it then it is definitely good for you.

No. Masturbation feels better. (n_n)\n\n.....I'm serious.

No, nothing at all.  As a matter of fact, it is healthy.  One side note also.  Masturbation has been proven to enlarge the penis 10-15% from it's original size over time if you masturbate at least 4-5 times per week.  The penis is simply a muscle and working that muscle out will enlarge it over time.

Masturbating doesn't have any effect on your physical health.  If doing it (or anything else) compulsively it may cause you a problem though.

Well, "************" has the number of letters as "masturb*tion," which is censored.  And there have been studies to show that more frequent ejaculation -- whether through masturb*tion or sexual intercourse -- reduces the risk of prostate cancer.
