Masturbation - \n\nIt is not a sin. it is one way of enjoying sex by oneself with out going to any other person of the opposite gender.  God will not mind if you Masturbate as he is now aware of what is masturbation and your will be doing it in the bathroom or in a separate room with doors closed. \n\nIt will not hurt anyone as you are not going to  beat anyone with your action. Secondly you are not going to do it in front of others. So why worry. i find your worry is baseless and there is nothing harm to do it.  \n\nNow you should know something about Mastubation. What is it?Masturbation is the manual excitation of the sexual organs, usually to the point of orgasm. It can refer to excitation either by oneself or by another (see mutual masturbation). It is part of a larger set of activities known as autoeroticism which also includes the use of sex toys and non-genital stimulation. There are also masturbation machines used to simulate intercourse. Masturbation and sexual intercourse are the two most common sexual practices, but they are not mutually exclusive (for example, many people find the sight of their partner masturbating highly erotic). Some people are able to achieve orgasm only through masturbation and not sexual intercourse.\n\n[edit] Benefits\nIt is held in many mental health circles that masturbation can relieve depression and lead to a higher sense of self-worth (Hurlbert & Whittaker, 1991). 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\nOn July 16, 2003, an Australian research team led by Graham Giles of The Cancer Council published a medical study [2] 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 ejaculation through sexual intercourse because intercourse can transmit diseases that may increase the risk of cancer instead.\n\nMasturbation is also seen as a sexual technique that protects individuals from the risk of contracting sexually transmitted diseases such as AIDS. Support for such a view, and for making it part of the American sex education curriculum led to the dismissal of US Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders during the Clinton administration.\n\nSome people actually consider masturbation as a cardiovascular workout. And while doctors have no proof of this actually being true, those suffering from cardiovascular disorders (particularly those recovering from myocardial infarction, or heart attacks) should resume physical activity (including sexual intercourse and masturbation) gradually and with the frequency and rigor in which their physical status will allow. Some doctors will advise those recovering from heart attacks to resume sexual activity (solitary or with a partner) when one is able to climb two flights of stairs without experiencing shortness of breath or chest pain-.

No.  Of course, anything in excess is bad for you.  However, in moderation, it can help prolong love making and and settle your nerves between encounters.

I was once told in the clearest possible terms that I had to stop masturbating. Normally I wouldn't have worried but this urgent advice came from my very own doctor!\n\n"Oh, come on, doc!" I said. "I have to give up masturbation? Why? Don't give me all that nonesense about pimples, blindness, hairs on the palms ... "\n\n"It's nothing to do with that." he said. "It's just that you're upsetting the other people in my waiting room."

Ill effects?  Hmmmm.... that's a hard one... haha.  Perhaps enjoying it so much you do it more and more - to the point of rubbin' it raw?  You can get sexually deprived, but, dude, it's not likely to happen from strokin it now and then...or daily even.

Masturbation is definitely a healthy sexual activity. It is one way for you to enjoy your own body, and to give yourself sexual pleasure. It can also tune you in to your own sexual likes and dislikes. You then have the choice of sharing that information with a sexual partner to enhance a sexual relationship.

Actually masterbation and sex produces endorphines, your bodies own protective mechanism for pain etc... comes about with excercise as well. So, theoretically, I would have to say it is not unhealthy to do it once a day.\nMike RN

There is quite a bit of evidence that it is VERY good for your mental and physical health. The incidence of prostate cancer is apparently considerably less on guys that masturbated frequently, especially in their younger years. No doubt that it's normal, healthy and fun...so go for it and enjoy!

Yes you can masterbate to much it will destory in REAL sex life and your marriage. Do not masterbate at all, its not needed. You need to be able to control when you come/climax, if you masterbate you teach yourself to come/climax with the thought of sex or thoughts of being with a woman. The more you masterbate more difficult it will be control yourself with the real thing. Look at it this way the average guy comes in 3-4 minutes the average woman takes 6-8 minutes your already behind the eight ball. Why decrease the change of pleasing her (the real her that is). The bottom line is the more you do yourself the faster you will come during real sex. If you come to fast she will not be back, she will look for someone who can please her.\n\nSounds to me that you are a canidate for this site\n\nhttp://www.herbolove.com/solution/survey/overmas.asp\n\nMasturbation is a part of life and our sexual practices. However, like most things in life, too much of a good thing can be bad. Excessive masturbation can lead to symptoms like stress, fatigue, and memory loss. In extreme cases, sufferers fall into the pitfalls of impotence and hair loss. Any of this sound like you?

No, in fact, increased ejaculation (through masturbating or sex) decreases the risk of prostate cancer.  Read about it here: http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn4861

Do not masterbate so much, its not needed. You need to be able to control when you come/climax, if you masterbate you teach yourself to come/climax with the thought of sex or thoughts of being with a woman.

• Masturbation  helps relieve stress. It also causes your body to release endorphins (pleasure hormones) which make you more chilled-out.

No, absolutely!\nOtherwise we all should have problem or be impotent even!\nOn the contrary, scientists says that a regular sexual life (mastu*bation too) helps the reproductive system to keep healthy, increasing the performance (libido) too.\nSomebody even plays more time in a day and there’s no correlation with impotency or erection.\nSo, don’t worry for that, while you only ought to care to don’t become too much addicted.\nMastu*bation is a normal event, and with the age and stable relation should decrease till vanish.

It will only affect your growth if you're masterbating while drinking coffee.lol, j/k.   \nIt won't affect your growth.\nIt will just turn your palms hairy and make you go blind.

It is neither.  Having functioning sex organs neither makes you healthier nor unhealthy.  The body has a way to do "system" checks on its own (erections and wet dreams over night), so it does not require that you perform any maintenance.  \n\nOn the other hand the body is designed to procreate over and over again as a way to propagate the species.  The amount of energy/nutrients required to ejaculate is really a very minor amount and does not affect you positively or negatively in the scheme of things.  \n\nIf you were to mastu*rbate excessively then I imagine it is possible to damage yourself, but you would practically need to make it a life's vocation.\n\nI looked up a couple journal articles that address your subject.  Good luck and happy playing.
