Come on guys!!! There is NO WAY masturbation could possibly cause all those physical problems in your body. In fact, the effects could actually help PREVENT certain types of cancer in the long run. The only difference between masturbation and two people having sex on a daily basis is how many people are involved. You're ending with the same result although not nearly as satisfying with one person.

You SERIOUSLY need to go see a doctor and tell him/her ALL of your symptoms.........SOON

Your knee problems, on the other hand, could be caused by you spending too much time on it during masturbation. Find a different position. (I suppose you could get carpal tunnel also if you did it enough.)

Lots of interesting posts. I've researched this topic a bit and wanted to share m experience. Some of the posts seem like they might be from girls with ulterior motives. This is the truth, from a guy that has studied this problem from several different angles.

Are there negative side effects from masturbation? There can be in some people. Over-masturbation can definitely lead to a range of worsening side effects. How much is over-masturbating? Depends on the person. Everyone is different. Just like some people get headaches easily and others have never had a headache in their life, some people have a greater capacity for masturbation. How can you tell what your capacity is? When you start to get negative side effects.

On another side note. There have been some studies on the psychosomatic effect of guilt and masturbation. People can feel guilty afterwards and actually condition themselves to experience negative side effects.

For the most part, masturbation is healthy. You can actually condition yourself to be able to masturbate more frequently without side effects. I don't know how its done but I've heard about people that have done that. Masturbation will protect from prostate cancer later in life. Additionally, regular masturbation will protect against impotence and other sexual dysfunctions and can also protect from urinary tract infections.

If you are an athlete or a bodybuilder then masturbation can have some negative side effects. When you lose a lot of calcium masturbating and then you engage in heavy lifting or explosive exercise like dunking a basketball, your bones and joints are a little bit weaker because of the osteoclasts breaking down your bones to provide more calcium for your muscle to compensate for what you lost masturbating. You can injure yourself more easily. Plus, you can get acne more easily from masturbating. Fatique and memory loss are other problems that you can get from over-masturbating.

This does not mean you should blame masturbation for all your problems. You need to experiment with your body. Go a few weeks without masturbating and see if it makes a positive difference in your life. If it does, then you need to cut down.

Everyone needs to find a healthy balance. It's like food. You can't eat Big MAcs every day and hope to be healthy, right? Same with masturbation. You need to find out how often you can do it without negative side effects.

Plus, if you are trying to bodybuild, and you can only get in the gym 2-3 times/week, masturbation makes it harder to keep your muscle tone because you are losing testosterone.

So, try to enjoy life. But if you are trying to impress that one girl by getting a nice body, ask yourself if maybe she won't be more impressed by you being at ease around her and not so sexually anxious. Find what works best for you. I think the worst advice is from all these supposed experts that keep trying to tell you that masturbation is completely fine and that you should do it as much as you like. I wonder how many people that say that are actual athletes. They might also say that it doesn't matter what your body looks like. They might be right about that one, but its ultimately up to YOU to decide for yourself.

PEACE OUT. I'M GOING TO GO MASTURBATE NOW.

Well I hate to be the bearer of bad news but if you are having these problems with masturbation...sexual activity with another partner may be deadly. (I'm being sarcastic).

Masturbation is physically inducing sexual arousal to the point of orgasm. With any physical activity there is an inherent possibility of injury.

From a neurological standpoint hormones are released in your body and play a role in the orgasm. Afterwards you have a post-climatic sense of euphoria. The time frame of this period varies.

In short unless you have some genetic defect or extreme hypersensitivity to epinephrine masturbation is not causing the symptoms you listed.

Your lack of ability to concentrate is likely due to many additional factors including anxiety and stress.

If you do believe these symptoms are being caused by masturbation the simple answer is to stop masturbating.

I mentioned earlier in the post that any physical activity can bring harm. It is possible that you have injured your knee in some way during masturbation.

Frequent masturbation is often seen as a sign of sexual addiction. If your activities are negatively affecting your life you need to take the necessary steps to get help.

id have to say i am atticted to masturbation. for the last 8 years. i do it at least once a day and i always do it before i fall asleep at night (otherwise i cant) and i do it sometimes 1-5 times during the day. (usually just that once at night though)

I have a knee problem, kind of how you have mention earliy.
Currently with my knees the problem is, i cant stand still (walking, jumping climbing running is fine) for more than 5 mins. After that i feel a very large acking pain in both knees. If i stand longer it ackes even more. So i HAVE to sit down. I have had a doctor do a few scans like bone scans and x-rays. But the scans have not picked up anything. I have looked right through the internet to figure why my knees hurt and i have come to a point where i think it could be the masterbation that causes this. You mention early that you have had scans on your knees but nothing came up. This was the same with me...

I have come to a point in my life where i am a desprate man. I have tryed to stop musturbation so many times but have failed. As you can imagine small things like going to the supermarket is a mission as it hurts standing in line at the counter. I cant even get a part time job to help with my studies because of this...

So plllleeease if i stop masterbation will this really fix my knees? Can i reverse my problem? Please help me out. I am so attictted to this.

You have yet to establish a connection between knee pain and your masturbation.
You simply SUSPECT that it may be linked. But you have not made your case.

Now, if you're kneeling on your knees as you masturbate, that's a problem in a different area.

However, it is not unusual for people to be tired, or achey after having an orgasm or climax.

Try backing off on your frequency and perhaps you'l have more energy.

Good luck.
