masterbation health risks

u guys r like really silly.. first of all if u have sex everyday, what's the dif if u masterbate everyday?? wouldnt it be the same thing? and i've never heard of a problem with having sex everyday.. have yall??
second.. testosterones is the word you guys are looking for..
and that level changes with ur body's ph balance.. not how many times u nut..
for example.. when ur really turned on.. thats when they're at they're highest.. and when ur penis, or penis, which ever one u want me to say..
doesnt wanna get up, thats when they're the lowest..

now i my self think its hot for a guy to do that, but sumtimes it does effect the fact of if ur lil mans gunna get up or not.. so i advise u.. only time not to do it, is before u get ya sum...

well i heard that when u masterbate ur body looses protein, so masterbating consistently will lead to muscle loss will it not? Because our cells are made of protein and so is our semen, so most of our ejaculate is protein being lost from our body right? just curious please respond back

First off, there will be a lot of differing opinions as anyone can post on this forum so let me say this...if you're still unsure, ask your doctor (or any doctor if you're afraid that he'll tell your parents).

For the most part people seem to have it right. Masturbating is totally healthy. I have no proof of this next sentence but I am assuming that never ejaculating (letting off a load) is probably bad for your health!!! Biologically as men we're supposed to ejaculate. Although the body is an amazing instrument so it may be OK to hold it in...on that I am not sure.

I'm 25 and have masturbated a whole lot in my lifetime and let me tell you it's awesome! LOL. It's a safe way to enjoy your body and I believe it's healthy and fun. One thing to consider is...use lotion, any household lotion will be fine but you should try to find one that feels good. Don't worry you're not "weird," in 10 years you and all your friends will be talking about how you thought you were the only one that masturbated in Jr. High but trust me 90% of your buddies do it too. It's fine. As for the lotion, use it so you don't chaff your skin and irritate your penis as it is a very sensitive organ.

As for social things to consider, you don't want to be canceling plans because you want to stay home and masturbate. The longer you wait the better it is anyway. It's not THAT important. Also, relax with the porn (others may object to this saying that 1) porn is ok 2) porn is bad). Personally, I think it's ok but only in moderation and don't start looking at weird crazy stuff. In my opinion the internet allows too much crazy stuff and it's bad for your mental health to see all the sick sh*t they put out there.

Just to let you know I stumbled on this forum because I googled "Masturbation and exercise." In my experience masturbation will leave you with less energy and "drive." This is probably due to a lower amount of testosterone in your body. So if you have a important ball game the next day, or really need to hit the gym hard, or just need to use a lot of energy in general, it's probably a good idea to hold it off for a few days. Again, i'm not sure about that last part but it's "common knowledge" amongst a lot of people with no scientific background. Take it as you may.

I felt compelled to help you young folks out there because it's a great thing and I remember when I was young with no internet I felt so insecure about it.

Oh yeah and 1 more very important thing. Try not to feel to guilty about it! It'll ruin the fun. If you can, don't feel guilty at all! I know I don't!

Hope this helps.

i read an article that was written by a doctor that was in between saying he was not for or against masturbation.... it said that masturbation before puberty or during puberty but done excessively (he didn't stay what "excessively" was) can cause a male adult to lose hair faster when they are older. it also stated that it can cause deformity's in the penis... it did knock down all of the "myths" that were stated by the topic above but I'd like to know what somebody would think of masturbation at the age 13.... i accidentally learned how to do it on my own and one of my best friends referred to it as "male nature" I'd really like to know if I'm harming myself in the future anyway because I'm starting to get addicted to it.... any answers would help please

i actually read an article not too long ago how it states that overexcessive masturbation at a young age can cause earlier hair loss, and lower weight, along with deformitys in the penis...... and just to say so.... if you feel you're masturbating too much you might be......

I just wanted to point out that making comments about religious rulings on matters that one has no background on is wrong. Islam does NOT disregard the concept of masterbation nethier does it state in the quran about masturbation. Sex out side marriage is unlawful, IF there is no other way of a person to release his sexual tensions then he is able to do so. You are CORRECT in stating that durig fasting this is forbidden.

I would also like to say, when christianity was against science, it was Islamic scholars that rescued some crucial scriptures about the human anatomy. So Islam is very concerned with science and medical. Infact.....sperm, mitosis, meiosis, the shape of the uterus, how rain is formed, clouds,, snow the science behind all this is mentioned in the Quran. Also the stages in teh growth of feotus...and the days at which the spirit enters the feotus as described in medical temrs where an abortion is not allowed coincides. Little ignorant of you to pass a judgement without prior knowlegde I would say. But yes, matsurbation is not wrong and everything else keeke said was correct....you're not sleeping around and spreading disease. I would also like to make the ladies aware that not using a condom does not only protect from STDs and pregnancy but also cervical cancers. If a man has had sex and is carrying the HPV (human papiloma virus on his penis and has sex with a woman without a protection. If this woman has a weak immune system the virus could spread forming cervical cancer. So cervical cancer is not a sign of promiscuousity.

So safer to just matsturbate, right?

Are small spots on your penis a health issue?

yeah dude, i completely agree with the urges part. im the same age. and do the same thing.

dude,
i jack off 4-5 times a day. its been years.
and i just get hornier by the minute.

umm am 15 and am wondering if you don't masturbate will your penis be small or if u masturbate when your a teen does it support penis growth please answer

i think from the physical and medical view the first reply of keekee is right , but in addition i think that masturbation is not a physical problem as it is not harmful to the sexual organs , but it is a psychological one if we think about it as an addiction . if masturbation prevent you from doing your normal life activities so you got a problem "psychological problem" . that is why you need to practise other useful activities .
it is right that in islamic culture musturbation break fasting ............. but in islam the main aim of fasting is "self control" . if you are able to make yourself away from sexual activities , food and water for a certain time ; so you can control yourself . mastrurbation is not harmful but take care it may be a kind of addiction as some people performe it even they have no true sexual desire . in addition masturbation is not very useful if you have no much time to wast .............. you must have periorities.

hi iam a 13 year old boy i masterbate a lot but not to much one time i got a little lump on the bottomm of the shaft of my penis ,its gone now but did it have anything to do with me masterbateing loll :-P

Okay so I feel this hard bone while Im making pleasure to myself what is it is it bad?

Whenever I do it my skin gets inflamed and itchy (eczema), my head gets itchy and flakes causing dandruff. Then it takes a couple of weeks to heal. So saying it has no effect what-so-ever is wrong. And yea it took me 5 years to realize it. It also causes pain in front part of legs to some as a side effect. So you can say it badly damages your immune system on long term basis even if the side effects don't show

masterbating even decreases body weight it is my personal experiences
