For starters i think its best to talk to your doctor and get checked out if you feel you are experiencing prostatitis or inflamed prostate.In my experience i have never had prostate or testical issues from over masturbation.I have been masturbating since a young teen as most men have.When i was going through a drought of not having a girlfriend than masturbating was always more frequent as i assume it would be for most men as well.As a 38 year old married man i can tell you that i still have a very high sexual drive and still masturbate 3-5 times a week on top of my sexual activity with my wife.This is normal for me.I think 3-5 times a day is excessive and might pose some problems down the road if done for years.
Use common sense and understand that yes we are all men but we are still different and our bodies react differently.What works for me may not work for you.I think that prostate massage is a powerful way to keep the prostate healthy.Again,consult your doctor and get as much information as possible before trying this.You can find very useful information on prostate massage and health ****
Find out what other men are saying and how prostate massage did or didn't work for them.Information and educating yourself is the key to solving your prostate problems.Good luck.

Masturbation is necessary to satisfy the ongoing male physical need to discharge semen to prevent and relieve pain from overfilled seminal vesicles. Frequent masturbation prevents wet dreams. Regular ejaculation is associated with better prostate health. Masturbation is a great stress reliever.
Masturbation is relaxing, pleasant, enjoyable, harmless, healthy, normal, and contributes to restful sleep if done before going to bed.
One may masturbate as much or as little as one wishes. There is an amount of time (called the refractory period) that one must wait before doing it again. Some teens find they need to do it three times a day. You may do it again whenever you feel ready.
One may do it in any place where one has privacy. There is no upper or lower age limit for masturbation.
In bed at night, on the toilet, or in the shower are some favorite places to masturbate.
The internally-lubricated movable nerve-laden, erogenous foreskin and its gliding action is an important aid to masturbation.
Circumcision was introduced into medical practice in the 19th century to unforeskin the penis and make it impossible to masturbate. It did not stop masturbation but it made it harder to do and perhaps less enjoyable.
How one does it depends on whether one has an internally lubricated movable foreskin that glides up and down the shaft or whether you have been unforeskinned.
If you are foreskinned, then all you need to do is glide your foreskin back and forth. The foreskin is internally lubricated with lymphatic fluid and glides without friction. The outer foreskin glides over the inner foreskin. It is not necessary or desirable to retract the foreskin. Foreskinned guys normally do not require additional lubrication. The numerous nerves inside the foreskin are stimulated by the motion and generate pleasurable sensations.
Long and vigorous masturbation can cause the foreskin to become edematous and swollen, which is painless and not a cause for alarm. The edema usually goes down within about 24 hours. Pulling back too hard is apt to stretch the frenulum and may tear it.
If you are unforeskinned and the skin is taut and immovable, then you will need some lubrication and you need to slide your hand up and down the shaft. You will likely injure yourself without lubricant. Friction burns are common when a male without foreskin masturbates without lubricant. Some lubricants are baby oil, vegetable oil, personal lubricant, soapy water, and saliva. Products containing harsh, irritating chemicals should not be used. Shampoo and body wash have been found to be irritating.
It is common for an unforeskinned male, who has been deprived of his internally lubricated foreskin, to have friction irritation if
he does not apply external lubricant.

I like to stimulate my prostate when I masturbate I mostly do this in the shower!
I will use my finger I will soap up my finger I will move in and out I also will push on my prostate it feels so good when I cum! I also will my razor handle with out the blade it is fatter at one end.
I will use soap for lube I will also move it in and out of my anus. I will also push in and squeeze my butt cheeks very tight. I start to masturbate slowly and when I cum it is over the top.
I wish I would have found out about this sooner it feels so good when I masturbate like this!
it's amazing what we have never been told as men about masturbation. The things we have had to find out on our own. I have a recent Urolift procedure and the nurse said "no sex for 2 week" but does that go for masturbation also? I am a week and 2 days past surgery and really getting the urge to give it a go.
As for the Guest above, get yourself a smooth, small dildo. I use my wife's. And, stop with the soap, get some KY Lube or Astroglide, water based lube. So much better than soap.
I also bought a Fleshlight, can't remember the model, but it's pretty fun too.
good luck!
I suggest you save your fingers for your penis and nipples and invest in a small battery operated bullet to insert into your anus while enjoying the powerful waterfall in the shower thundering onto your engorged penis and happy balls
Masturbation is good for men and their prostate as well. I've been masturbating all my life regardless whether I had sex partners or not. Regular ejaculation is good for you. So take matters in hand guys !
