Is masturbation healthy?\nMasturbation is a healthy and normal practice, like daydreaming or napping. Even masturbating several times each day is completely harmless. You may encounter people, books, or websites that say masturbation is bad or harmful; this is just plain incorrect. As any reputable medical doctor will tell you, old myths about masturbation affecting the eyesight, causing permanent fatigue or insanity, etc., have long been disproved. In fact, recent studies suggest that ejaculating regularly isn't just fun, it can actually help prevent a certain kind of cancer later in life.

Dear Alice-\n\nIf a person masturbates once or twice a day, for approximately over a long period of time, like two to three years, would there be any side effects for this person? Or maybe, are there any long-term side effects?\n\nSigned-- Curious Student about Masturbation\n\n \n\nDear Curious Student about Masturbation,\n\nIndividuals vary tremendously in the frequencies with which they masturbate. There are people who never masturbate, those who masturbate two or three times in their lifetime, and those who masturbate three or more times a day, as well as everything in between. Many people masturbate throughout their lifetime without any side effects, other than pleasure. If there is no significant stress in your life (work, school, relationship, family, etc.), and the amount you are masturbating isn't hurting you, why not just enjoy yourself?

Masturbation cannot, and will not harm your health in any way. It will not make you go Blind, Bald and/or insane. Actually Masturbating will release the hormone endorphine which makes you feel more chilled out. That's just rubbish. for more on Masturbation follow the link below:

There are no harmful effects of masturbation.  I guess you could become pre occupied with it and obsessed maybe, but doubt it. It's normal for guys and girls.

nothing harmful about having it.  It just means your sac is full.  Are you having sex or mastur*ting.  If not that is why you have it.  If you are it is still no problem

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!

M*sturbation is when you are sexually satisfying yourself. You can be doing it on your own or with another person near you.\n\nIt is safe.  It is not harmful unless you use utensils or sex toys in the wrong way.  For men, if they pull themselves too much they are going to end up really sore but that would only be harmful if they continue doing so.

There shouldnt be. In fact, it is better than having sex to get the orgasm you need if you are not yet married.I've heard that if man masturbates too much,its bad for their eyesights, possibly due to the too much flow of Vit.A from the sperm. But as for women, they dont release like the men. But try not to do it too often because anything done in excess is bad.

Health and psychological effects\nIt is held in many mental health circles that masturbation can relieve depression and lead to a higher sense of self-worth. 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.\n\nBoth from the standpoint of avoiding unwanted pregnancy and that of avoiding sexually transmitted diseases, masturbation is the safest of sexual practices. There is no credible scientific or medical evidence that manual masturbation is damaging to either one's mental or physical health.\n\nA man whose penis has suffered "an invasive procedure, blunt trauma or injury during intercourse"[2] may suffer later in life from Peyronie's disease. Usually in the context of an abnormal tunica albuginea, the rare event of penile fracture[3] may occur. Phimosis is "a contracted foreskin (that) may cause trouble by hurting when an attempt is made to pull the foreskin back"[4]. In each of these cases, overly aggressive manipulation of the penis can be problematic.\n\nContrary to popular myth, masturbation does not cause blindness. There is some basis, however, to the myth: zinc is required both to transport vitamin A from the liver to the retina and is excreted in relatively high amount in semen. Thus, it is not inconceivable that in zinc-deficient or vitamin A-deficient environments excessive male masturbation could have caused night blindness (in which case sexual intercourse has an equal probability of causing blindness). Given a normal contemporary diet, however, this is extremely unlikely to happen. There is also the more modern issue of staring at a computer screen while watching pornography for extended periods of time as the pupils tend to dilate during arousal.\n\nThe only side-effects recorded are that repeated masturbation may result in tiredness or soreness, which tend to make repeated masturbation self-limiting in any case. For men, the volume of ejaculate is temporarily reduced after multiple ejaculations until normal seminal volume is regained in a day or so. Nevertheless, people may experience feelings of guilt during or after masturbation, especially if they come from a socially conservative or religious background.\n\nSolitary masturbation carries no risk of pregnancy or sexually transmitted diseases. Masturbation involving both a man and a woman can result in pregnancy only if semen contacts the vulva. Any masturbation with a partner can theoretically result in transmission of sexually transmitted disease by contact with bodily fluids, and such contact should be avoided with any partner whose disease status is uncertain. Objects inserted into the vagina or anus should be clean and of a kind that will not scratch or break. Care should be taken not to fully insert anything into the anus—any object used should have a flared or flanged base; otherwise retrieval can require a visit to the emergency room. Most modern dildos and anal plugs are designed with this feature.\n\nIn 1994, when the first woman appointed Surgeon General of the United States, Dr. Joycelyn Elders, mentioned as an aside that perhaps it ought to be mentioned in school curricula that masturbation was safe and healthy, she was forced to resign, with opponents asserting that she was promoting the teaching of how to masturbate. Many believe this was the result of her long history of promoting controversial viewpoints and not due solely to her public mention of masturbation. Her case led to the coining of a new and humorous slang term for masturbation: Firing the surgeon general.\n\nOn 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 ejaculati

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.

look just don't do it.  It's not good for you.  If you don't do it then it doesn't matter.\n\nThis kind of abuse is dangerous.  It affects a normal brain differently, and it can make you sick.  For the person with normal brain function, there are many potential side effects including elevated blood pressure and heart rate, nausea, agitation, headaches, insomnia, and death.

Mastu*bation gets no negative or bad effects FIRST or AFTER the puberty.\nHave you never read about somebody died of too sex?\nIt just is a human (body and mental) need!\nThe same thing is about the number of acts play.\nOf course there is some limit as well as anything in the life.\nHowever, anybody acts with regard to his characteristics and exigencies. Praecox ejaculation just is another different issue and you can find it ONLY when you are adult and having constant sexual act with a partner.  \nSo, just live your life and enjoy without such trouble.
