Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for choosing wwwhealthcaremagic
It is a very interesting question. 99% questions are about bad effects of masturbation? Yes, there are some positive effects of masturbation. Masturbation is manual sex and orgasm attained is same as vaginal sex. Orgasm is associated with release of endorphins causing relaxation, dopamine causing feeling of pleasure, increase immunity, reduces stress and blood pressure and help build trust due to release of oxytocin . Too much involvement to the level of distress to self or others is bad otherwise it is perfectly fine.
