General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Masturbation is the sexual stimulation of one's own genitals for sexual arousal or sexual pleasure, usually to the point of orgasm.
Masturbation is a medically healthy and psychologically normal habit. It is considered as normal and healthy part of sexual enjoyment.
Doing it regularly is not known to have any adverse effect on health.
However, it needs to be spaced properly and performed in a clean environment.
As per your description, it appears that your partner is overdoing it and it needs to be dealt with properly as it is a psychological problem.
You need to consult Psychiatrist promptly as he needs to have psychological counselling sessions to overcome the problem.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
I find this answer helpful
