What Are The Side Effects Of Excessive Masturbation?

My name is John, I m 53yo, & been suffering very badly with chronic groin pain due to shame to admit over-masturbation. This started to seriously affect me in 2004, before getting extremely bad in 2005 with pain occurring after urination as well as ejaculation. I had tests done for prostate & saw urologists etc, but verdict only seemed to be it s only muscles/nerves so take pain killers etc & eventually may go away. But NO! absolutely NOTHING I tried,seriously, no drugs/natural products/abstinence etc has helped to rid this terrible condition. I attempted multiple suicides(obviously failed) in 2006, & since just tolerated this hellish scourge that s destroyed me physically/emotionally. Right now I m desperately distressed,HELP!!! Have I reached the point of never getting back to a pain-free life? I hate simply existing like this :-(

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I don't understand, why you try suicide for this problem? What is so serious about this problem? You just have pain in your groin area where there was no medical reasons were spotted except muscular stress.

Please understand, blaming masturbation is not correct. Masturbation is a natural process and cannot harm your health. You said you masturbated in excess. What is in excess? Teenage people masturbate once or twice a day. After twenty, masturbation comes down to thrice of twice a week because they have so many other things to take care of like education, health, career etc. In your case, what is the number?

You should also understand, your doctors did all those tests and said there is nothing wrong. YOU MUST BELIEVE THEM. If you don;t believe them and go with normal life style, you will obsess with the same area of pain again and again, and naturally the you will feel and wriggle with pain, even though, actually the pain does not exist. That is called, in psychiatry, Psycho-somatic disorder.

I suggest you to consult a psychiatrist for further treatment.
