Psychiatrist 's  Response
dear user ,
There are many myths prevalent in the general public about masturbation - and this is the biggest of all that it is not good for health. Scientific research has disproved any such claims . Masturbation is a very normal activity that nearly all men and many women practice in their lifetime. remember, there is no normal limit of masturbation , and one can keep on living a healthy life with it . only a very minor abnormality can be of"compulsive masturbation" , that is preoccupation and performance of masturbation to such an extent that it disrupts your daily routine and/or normal sexual life with your partner , in that case one needs to visit a psychiatrist, otherwise just relax , everything is fine !!
any follow up queries are welcome , anf if satisfied -please rate the answer
