Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 19-year-old male addicted to masturbation. Now, this addiction is getting serious, now I masturbate twice daily. How to control it?

Kindly help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thank you for your query.

I understand your concern. Masturbation is a normal natural process. It has no side effects on the body, but you can gradually reduce it to once. But like you said you have the inability to concentrate it is because of the guilt you are having of masturbation.

I hope this has helped you. Thank you.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
