    Wox is right. If you pay attention close enough, you'll notice the harms masturbation does to your body. Earning a medical degree does not guarantee one is correct on every single health issue. I don't understand why some doctors try so hard to prove that masturbation is healthy, when it has many serious side effects on one's physical and mental health. But some responsible doctors, especially traditional Chinese medicine practicioners will tell you that masturbation is absolutely harmful. It does direct harm to your kidneys, from there many other serious disease could develop.

    The symptoms might not be pronounced when masturbation has not become an addiction. But they are still there if you pay close attention. For example, I noticed that my concentration and memory got worse. I often lost motivation to stick to my plans for the day after masturbation. Long term effects of masturbation includes small stature, kidney disease and prostate disease.

    Masturbation could become an addiction. I used to be addicted at one point in my life. I sometimes even wanted to go home to masturbate when i was at school or workplace. I became somewhat anti-social and cried for no reason. I had many fights with people around me and was often angry. I realized I was in serious trouble so i quit.

    Quitting masturbation made a big difference in my life. I become more energetic, happier and more satisfied with my life. I can build body muscle mass more easily than before. I now have great concentration and memory, which has helped me perform well at school. Moreover, I have more time and energy for my hobbies and pursuits. Life is much better without masturbation! Why not give it a try.

    There are no harmful effects of masturbation.

    Masturbation is normal, natural and very healthy. It helps to prevent depression, its good for your heart, good for your brain, and good for your sex organs.

    It has no effect on your hair (if it did, I'd be bald)

    It has no effect on your hardness (thats usually caused by mental problems)

    And what the hell is "sex power?" Maybe you need to plug it in? Recharge the battery?

    Ejaculation can be considered premature when it occurs 30 seconds to 4 minutes into sex, depending on different cultures, countries and experts. Behavioural techniques can help you delay orgasm. Learn here https://tr.im/W0VcR

    These include the start-and-stop method and the squeeze technique. A combination of these techniques along with sexual counselling and medication (either using an anaesthetic cream or an oral tablet) is recommended.

    "There is no such thing as polishing the raised scepter of love too often." (From the TV show Weeds)

    The only problem might be if you masturbate now and then your sex partner suddenly arrives, you might have to wait several hours before being able to perform well. Other than that there are no negatives. Trust me - I've been doing it for decades.

    I heard you could go blind. So I only did it until I needed glasses. Now I get my wife to do it for me.
