Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXX,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

As I can see that you are concerned with bad effects of masturbation as there are lot of myths prevalent in our society.

I like to inform you that masturbation is most commonly practiced sex habit with no side effects. If you are doing under limits it is unlikely to cause any adverse effects to you or your sexual life. For a person of 29 year age masturbation of 7+- 2 times in week is completely normal. In case your per week frequency falls between 5-9 there is no need to worry and you can continuer your pleasure provided you feel happy with it.

I hope this helps you.
If you have more questions feel free to contact me.
Thanks and regards.
