Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am 23 years old, and I started masturbating when I was 12 or 13-year-old. I was addicted and used to masturbated three or four days a week. Now I have not masturbated for last two months. I want to get married next month. Now I am not getting an erection and if I get an erection it will lose after 10 to 20 seconds. So please help me.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

Masturbation is normal, and ninety-five per cent of male does that (out of a hundred ninety-five male) it is just another way of having sex without a partner. It is a good practice.

1. It helps to relieve stress.

2. Boosts mood.

3. Improves sleep.

4. Helps to prevent depression and anxiety.

5. Relaxes the mind of a person.

6. Relieves pain and muscle cramps.

7. Relieves the sexual tension.

8. Improves the confidence of a person.

9. Allows one to have better sex.

10. Helps the person understand his needs and desires.

11. In females masturbation increases vaginal blood flow.

Masturbation does 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, sense of infertility.

Ways to reduce Masturbation

  1. Sex education.
  2. Physical exercises.
  3. Sleep adjustment.
  4. Quality of sleep.
  5. Healthy and balanced diet.
  6. Programming for leisure time.
  7. Development of spirituality.
  8. Taking a cold bath.

For tiredness or a decrease in strength can use a capsule of Astymin forte once a morning and a tablet of Shelcal (Vitamin D) once a night after food for thirty days.

Thank you.
