What Are The Side Effects Of Excessive Masturbation?
Hey! This is karam. I musterbate once a day or sometimes once in 2-3 days. I usually musterbate in night. My penis size is also good and bit like banana shape. My question is that my daily life activities are not affected by masterbation I do my regular jobs. Spend time with friends. I do everyday task as a man should do but at night I masterbate not because without this I can't fall asleep just for pleasure. Is there any problem can occur to me like sperm infertility.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Masturbation does not cause any physical damage if you are taking healthy diet. Masturbation of 2 to 3 times a week is normal and will not cause any problem. However, excessive masturbation could be harmful to your future sex life.
Excessive masturbation can cause keratinization (hardening of mucosa) of glands of penis. This can make penis insenstive to normal stimulation during sex. This may cause lack of pleasure during sex and inability to ejaculate during sex.
Masturbation can cause temporary reduction to sperm count as well. A bent in shape of penis is a very common finding. It will not cause any problem in sexual activity if bent is less than 45 degree.
To reduce masturbation frequency, you should try to focus more on your studies, sports activities, etcetera. You should avoid watching porn/adult content. You should sleep in such a way (such as tight clothes, wearing gloves etcetera) that your hands could not gain access to your penis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Vivek Goyal
