What Are The Side Effects Of Masturbation?

Hi doc, I m a 30/m. In an average week I masturbate upwards of 100 times a week. The ejaculate is clear and basically water. How much is too much? If I cut down smoking and caffeine will the urge subside? Is this a self correction to counter the stimulants?

Hello,
Welcome to HCM,

There are no harmful side effects of masturbation. There is a false belief such as hair growing on the palms, insanity and masturbation will drain excessive energy from the body.

In fact it has got lot of good effect on the health, which includes

1.Alleviation premenstrual tension for many women.
2.Masturbation provides a healthy sexual outlet for people who choose to abstain from sex.
3.It is a route to safer sex
4.Provides sexual pleasuring for those who are not ready to engage in sex.
5.Increases blood flow to the genital region, which can help overall sexual functioning.

For women, it can help them learn how to achieve orgasm and for men, it can help them to increase ejaculatory control and manage rapid and delayed ejaculation.

Thank you.
