Masturbation is a normal sexual activity performed by both men and women. But despite the taboo presumption in some cultures, there are some things you need to know about self-satisfying activities which are also known as masturbation.
- Masturbation vs. intimate relationship, which one is better?
As we know, sexual intercourse has a positive impact on men's health, for example on blood pressure and heart and prostate health. However, it is not the case with masturbation. Unfortunately, it is not yet known why ejaculation during masturbation and ejaculation during intercourse has a different effect. A study of 2015 states that masturbation lowers the risk of prostate cancer. But this is still to be investigated further.
2 . Is masturbation harmful to health?
Masturbation remains a risky activity, although the risk is only minimal. Oversupply too often and roughly can cause skin irritation. Penile erect penis is risky to "break" if bent by force. The prone position during masturbation can also put more pressure on the penis. This poses a risk of injury to the penis. The recommended positions for masturbation to be "safe" are supine, sitting, or standing. Should avoid squeezing the area of the penis during ejaculation. This risks causing damage to the nerves and blood vessels contained in the penis area. It can also cause forced semen entry into the bladder.
3 . How often is considered normal?
There is no normal amount of masturbation that is said to be "normal". The thing that becomes the standard is your daily life. If you masturbate several times a day but your life is healthy and enjoyable, the amount is not excessive. But if this affects your life and your partner, you should start slowly reducing it so as not to become "dependent". One effect when you are too often masturbation, is you become lazy to do something other than masturbation. Or, you instead prefer to masturbate than having sex with your partner. Instead of masturbating, you should spend your free time with exercise or other hobbies for a healthier and happier life.
4 . Does masturbation mean less satisfying sexual life?
No. Almost all men masturbate, whether single or married, whether in a good relationship or not. Most men do masturbation not just to satisfy sexual desire alone. Men do it too to relieve stress or calm down before going to sleep.
5 . What are the benefits of masturbation for men?
Several studies have shown the effect of masturbation on prostate cancer prevention.
The cortisol hormone released during ejaculation can regulate and enhance the immune system.
Masturbation can help relieve stress. The release hormone endorphins help boost your mood and satisfaction.
In older men, muscle tone of the penile area weakens naturally. Masturbation can also help you train your pelvic floor muscles to prevent erectile dysfunction and incontinence.
