Masturbating Frequently, Soft Erection. Will I Get Hard Erections If I Stop Masturbating?

default
Posted on Mon, 24 Sep 2012
Question: Hi! I masturbate quite often may be 3 or 4 times a week. I have been doing this since I was 17. I am 25 now. I have recently noticed that I don't get the same kind of erection which I used to get may be 3 or 4 years back. It is not that tight. I was wondering if I stop masturbating would I be able to get the same kind of erection? Would the damage that I have caused to my penis heal automatically or would I need some kind of medications?

Hi,

Thanks for posting your query.

Please do not worry.

Masturbation dose not lead to any problem, no weak erection, nothing.

There is no need to worry and you do not require any treatment for same.

Masturbation just like any other sense like eating, sleeping etc.

Strength of erection is related to your excitement.

Please remove any phobia or myths from your mind.

I hope this helps.

Regards,

Dr.Pragnesh
