Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Masturbation is usual. It does not cause physical or sexual problems. Also, do not give any importance to the advertisement that mentions masturbation cause health problems or destroys life, and it does not require any treatment.

Masturbation is a maintenance procedure. It keeps the penis well and regular turnover of fresh semen or sperm. If you want to reduce it, you should involve yourself in studies, games, and hobbies. Also, try not to remain alone most of the time and avoid porn. Erection problem can be due to stress or anxiety or due to a physical cause.

For the physical reason, you need to do blood tests Hb (hemoglobin), TC (total cell count), DC (differential cell count), fasting sugar, prolactin, TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone), testosterone. Please upload the reports. Depending on the results treatment can be decided.
