Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am 23 years old. I have no bad habits, yet the only activity I engage in is masturbation. Sometimes I do it once a day. So, please, could you help me fix it? Are there any major difficulties in the future? What to do if it does not continue. Please suggest some solutions and interventions to help me get through it until my marriage. Please assist.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I read your query and can understand your concern.
Masturbation is normal; 95 percent of males do that (out of a hundred males, 95 males); it is just another way of having sex without a partner. It is good practice. The benefits of masturbation are:
It helps to relieve stress.
Uplifts your mood.
Improves sleep.
It helps to prevent depression (involves a depressed mood or loss of pleasure or interest in activities for long periods of time) and anxiety (a feeling of fear, dread, and uneasiness).
Relaxes the mind of a person.
Relieves pain and muscle cramps.
Relieves the sexual tension.
Improves the confidence of a person.
Allows one to have better sex.
It helps the person understand his needs and desires.
In females, masturbation increases vaginal blood flow.
Masturbation will not harm your penis; having it two to three times a week is not an issue; more than that can cause tiredness, loss of concentration, and a sense of infertility. Ways to reduce masturbation are:
Sex education.
Physical exercises.
Sleep adjustment.
Quality of sleep.
Healthy and balanced diet.
Programming for leisure time.
Development of spirituality.
Taking a cold bath.
For tiredness or a decrease in strength, I suggest using:
Capsule. Astymin Forte (multivitamin) once a morning.
Tablet. Shelcal (vitamin D) once a night after food for thirty days.
(However, take tablets after consulting your doctor).
I hope this helps.
Thank you, and take care.
Regards.
