What Are The Side Effects Of Masturbation?

Hey, Im 23 years old. I started masturbating 9 years ago and would like to quit now as I have seen my body become weak over the years and I also ejaculate in very less time.. In just 2 minutes. Please suggest me a good diet or any other method with which I can solve my issue and be able to attain and maintain strong and harder erections that last longer. And also how to increase sperm count..? Thank You

Hello,
Welcome to HCM,

Masturbation is a normal physiological activity done to relieve sexual desire by many young people.

Many times those who are not aware of it discuss it with their peer group who are equally unaware of this, and the problem is compounded by immature discussion among the peers.

Some people have many wrong ideas about masturbation - that it causes ill effects on health like nervous weakness, reduced energy, etc or sexual problems like impotence in the future. All this is not true and these are just myths and misconceptions.

Masturbation has no effects on your health at all, so stop worrying. Every one does this activity in his life.Important here is that it should not effect your normal routine activities.
Thank you.
