Is masturbation healthy?

If you meant the masturb*tion, I say:\nNo, you should run no significant risk.\nAnybody acts according to his sexuality and lust.\nA friend of mine had anaemia after one year he was been mastu*bating 3-4 times in a day.\nBut it even depends by your body-build too. \nMasturbating can be done as frequently as you wish as long as it does not interfere with your life.\nDon’t worry, just act as you feel and enjoy!

masturbation is a normal function.  you must feel guilty about it after you do it.  u probably enjoy the masturbation, but not the feelings that go with it.  masturbation usually has good effects, as it reduces anxiety and stress.  you need to talk to a mental health professional such as a psychologist to explore your feelings towards masturbation.  don't be ashamed by your masturbation it is a normal function   the only time it can be a problem, is when it interferes with your social life say, that you would rather stay home and watch porno all the time, and do not want to go out and meet other people on a social, or sexual level. if you feel you are masturbating obsessively, that is usually caused by stress and anxiety.  counseling would help.  don't worry a lot of people have issues about masturbation,  you are not alone.  if there are, religious beliefs, about masturbation causing you this distress, don't worry about that.  my belief is that it is a god given gift, and part of human nature to masturbate, and not a sin.  hope this helps you good luck

Masturbating doesn't have any effect on your physical health.  If doing it (or anything else) compulsively it may cause you a problem though.

Please do!  Masturbation is  a wonderful  tool for your own sexual health.  You will be surprised to find out how differently sex with someone else feels after you have masturbated, and have a different understanding of your  own body.  Be creative with yourself, fall in love with YOU first!!!!

Masturbation - \n\nIt is not a sin. it is one way of enjoying sex by oneself with out going to any other person of the opposite gender.  God will not mind if you Masturbate as he is now aware of what is masturbation and your will be doing it in the bathroom or in a separate room with doors closed. \n\nIt will not hurt anyone as you are not going to  beat anyone with your action. Secondly you are not going to do it in front of others. So why worry. i find your worry is baseless and there is nothing harm to do it.  \n\nNow you should know something about Mastubation. What is it?Masturbation is the manual excitation of the sexual organs, usually to the point of orgasm. It can refer to excitation either by oneself or by another (see mutual masturbation). It is part of a larger set of activities known as autoeroticism which also includes the use of sex toys and non-genital stimulation. There are also masturbation machines used to simulate intercourse. Masturbation and sexual intercourse are the two most common sexual practices, but they are not mutually exclusive (for example, many people find the sight of their partner masturbating highly erotic). Some people are able to achieve orgasm only through masturbation and not sexual intercourse.\n\n[edit] Benefits\nIt is held in many mental health circles that masturbation can relieve depression and lead to a higher sense of self-worth (Hurlbert & Whittaker, 1991). Masturbation can also be particularly useful in relationships where one partner wants more sex than the other — in which case masturbation provides a balancing effect and thus a more harmonious relationship.\n\nOn July 16, 2003, an Australian research team led by Graham Giles of The Cancer Council published a medical study [2] which concluded that frequent masturbation by males may help prevent the development of prostate cancer. The study also indicated that this would be more helpful than ejaculation through sexual intercourse because intercourse can transmit diseases that may increase the risk of cancer instead.\n\nMasturbation is also seen as a sexual technique that protects individuals from the risk of contracting sexually transmitted diseases such as AIDS. Support for such a view, and for making it part of the American sex education curriculum led to the dismissal of US Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders during the Clinton administration.\n\nSome people actually consider masturbation as a cardiovascular workout. And while doctors have no proof of this actually being true, those suffering from cardiovascular disorders (particularly those recovering from myocardial infarction, or heart attacks) should resume physical activity (including sexual intercourse and masturbation) gradually and with the frequency and rigor in which their physical status will allow. Some doctors will advise those recovering from heart attacks to resume sexual activity (solitary or with a partner) when one is able to climb two flights of stairs without experiencing shortness of breath or chest pain-.

There is nothing harmful about self pleasure.  It is a healthy practice for most men and can actually help with your sex life. It does not decrease your styaying power or sperm count either.  If anything it makes you more aware how it works and gives you more control when using it.

No, and I don't understand why people keep asking this quesion.  There is absolutely nothing wrong with masturbating and it can be good for you, especially if you aren't getting lucky.

No, watching porn is good for you.  It's a healthy expression of human sexuality

There is a strong taboo against masturbation and a lot of myths have been spread. But actually masturbation is very healty. It's good for both genders but especially for males - it is good for our prostate to have a "release" at least once a day.

It is neither.  Having functioning sex organs neither makes you healthier nor unhealthy.  The body has a way to do "system" checks on its own (erections and wet dreams over night), so it does not require that you perform any maintenance.  \n\nOn the other hand the body is designed to procreate over and over again as a way to propagate the species.  The amount of energy/nutrients required to ejaculate is really a very minor amount and does not affect you positively or negatively in the scheme of things.  \n\nIf you were to mastu*rbate excessively then I imagine it is possible to damage yourself, but you would practically need to make it a life's vocation.\n\nI looked up a couple journal articles that address your subject.  Good luck and happy playing.

No it's actually a good thing. It shows your intune with yourself and no exactly what it is you want. Just make sure that you don't let it completely over run your life because then it could be an addiction you should seek help for. There is nothing wrong with masterbation so long as it doesn't interfer with your life (i.e. Job, family etc). So feel free to continue enjoying yourself!!!
