How To Get Rid Of Masturbation?

Hi, im 21 years old and have been masturbating since l was 13. Since then l have had several problems both physically and sexually. When l was around 14/15 my iron levels dropped dramatically and l had to go on iron supplements for months. l noticed that every time l masturbated l felt weak and disorientated. This still happens to me (occasionally) but now l can't even get a fully erect penis and if l do it won't be for long. What im trying to say is that im addicted to self pleasure but l think its killing my erections and l really need help since im too embarrassed to say to ANYBODY.

Hi,

Masturbation is normal, it’s just the another way of having sex without partner. It’s a good practice, helps to calm your mind and release happy and stress-busting enzymes.

Having 2 to 3 times a week is not an issue, more than that is also not an issue , but needs adequate nutrition and exercise which will be difficult to fulfill.

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.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr S.R.Raveendran, Sexologist
