Question About Masturbation Posted: 01-08-07 22:21pm
Hey guys,
i don't really have a medical problem, but
I do have a question:
is there any average on how often a guy
should masturbate?
I used to masturbate once in a while when
I first "discovered it", then it got more
frequent, like a few time a week, and at
one point I was doing it way too often
once or twice each day (i say to often
because the amount of sperm wasn't very
much each time compared to what it was
when I did it less often. So I don't
think I was giving myself enough time to
produce more sperm).
Anyways I was just wondering how often
it's best to masturbate, I have been
making an effort not to do it too often
and not to space it out too much, because
I have a feeling it's probably not good to
stop completely for long periods of
time.
Anyways, if anyone could answer the
question, or just give opinions, from
personal experience that would good too.
Thanks,
kevin29

Too much masturbation isn't overly
unhealthy, but it can still cause
problems. It can cause the overproduction
of hormones, which should otherwise remain
in balance. I've read that in can cause
premature ejaculation, groin pain, weak
erections, seminal leakage, etc. Many
things that could otherwise be caused by
other factors.
Generally speaking, it's not terribly
unhealthy, but reduction can have some
healthful and sexual health benefits.
Semen contains many nutrients important
for sexual health and ejaculating will
cause you to lose these, in addition to
losing the testosterone. Really, it's the
ejaculation that causes the problems. The
masturbation itself has great effects on
your sexual health, so if you do so
without ejaculating, you're better than if
you refrained altogether.
Depending on your age, 2-3 times per week
is okay. If over 40 maybe once a week.
Older than that, even more rarely.
I'm currently researching multiple orgasms
and orgasm without ejaculation. So I hope
to be able enjoy orgasms daily, without
the loss of fluids.

I'm 16, so the age is a problem, but good
to keep in mind.
I guess I don't have to worry then if I do
it a little more often every once in a
while. On average i'm going to try to
aim for about 2-3 times per week like you
mentioned because it seems not to often
and not too spread out. Thanks for the
reply.

Kevin29,
There is absolutely nothing wrong with
masturbation -everyone does it. I do it
usually once a day, sometimes more
depending on my mood. At 16 I would think
that your erections are very hard and that
you shoot a fair amount of cum. I think
you should do some research on google or
likewise, and/or ask your doctor if this
is bothering you.
Personally I think that you can "beat it"
a little more often than 2-3 times per
week, as long as your cum shots are still
strong and plentiful.
