What are the side effects of masturbation and excess masturbation.

Question

You may think that you lost all of it - spoiling and at the same time feeling embarrassed and dreadful. You must always try your best to concentrate on several resourceful side-lines and distract your attention from anxiety and culpability. Develop a healthy practice and bring self-control in life. Do Workout every day for 1 Hour (you can start with yoga and pranayam as it is mild and stress-free to do).
Masturbation is a natural sexual practice. Myths about masturbation are something that has been around for centuries, being handed down from one generation to another. These myths have made a lot people, especially the younger generation; imagine that there is a problem where none existed. Here a few such myths
The truth is that acne and pimples are caused by oily skin and have nothing to do with masturbation.
Masturbation is a lifelong sexual activity. According to surveys regularly show 70 to 95 per cent of adult men and women masturbate. And while this may slow down as we age, many of us continue masturbating into our golden years. One survey of 800 adults over 60 yrs. Age found that that 46% of them masturbated, another found that 20% of seniors masturbated once a week or more. Masturbation is not just for the young, nor is it an immature form of sexual behaviour.
The act of masturbation is as natural as making love, and, just like sexual intercourse it does not have any adverse effects on your health. Things like it causes acne, impotence, dark circles around the eyes etc. Are just unfounded assumptions and are not correct.
Is regular sexual intercourse bad for you? Then how can masturbation be bad for you as it only mimics the sexual act. One can masturbate up to a couple of times a day with no ill effects. You just need to be aware about the difference between excessive masturbation and compulsive masturbation. The latter can lead to a few problems, if you fell that you masturbate compulsively, and then it is a good idea to contact a sexual health expert.
Most people who are in a relationship indulge in masturbation. The need to masturbate has got nothing to do with a person?s relationship status. Again the unfounded social attitude about this act only makes people indulge in it privately and without their partner?s knowledge.
Masturbation trains us to think that sexual desire is something that should be satisfied immediately, and it reinforces the idea that sex is about selfish instant gratification. While love is all about giving and sacrificing one's desires for the needs of another person, masturbation is all about training us to do whatever we want to feel good. Masturbation slowly but surely destroys our ability to give and receive love.
It is just a way to release sexual tension
While a man who frequently masturbates may find that he has a lower volume of semen per ejaculation, he would not run out, and he won't become infertile. His testicles begin producing and storing sperm during puberty and this sperm production continues throughout much of his adult life.
It is a myth that satisfying yourself sexually will diminish your performance in bed.

1. If you are a teenager, you might want to know, is masturbation bad? is there anything wrong with it? am I the only one doing it? what kind of bad effects it can cause if it can cause any? can it create problems in my future life, esp marriage?

2. Doctors will argue no matter how much you do it, masturbation is not harmful at all. Some doctors say if you are addicted to it obsessively it can be a problem but even then they say the bad affects are only psychological and not physical. Psychological effects basically mean you shun yourself from society, indulge with yourself all the time and lead an unproductive life which can be a problem in the society.

3. My experience with excessive masturbation however is, it can be really harmful. And I mean in physical way. While this is somewhat controversial, controversial in the sense that I first came to know about this from street pamphlets, but my own experience actually affirms that the bad effects are true. I still have an open mind to it however. If someone can convince me these are not bad affects because of masturbation, I am willing to accept it happily. Harmful effects of masturbation include:-

1) penis becomes thin at base I experienced this first hand. How can I believe it was just the pamphlet that caused me to believe my penis had shrunk at the base. I can see it every day and have proof of it. The shrinkage get severe if I masturbated and begin to disappear if you do not masturbate.

2) penis starts to leak semen
when you think about a girl, the tip of your penis gets wet. In mild cases it it is just the tip that gets wet, as it become severe the secretion will actually make more area wet.
Did you have any of these bad affects? you are welcomed to comment below.

3) premature ejaculation
this happens because of over masturbation. What happens is you teach your organ to ejaculate even when there isn't a strong enough stimulus. Gradually your body learns how to ejaculate to achieve orgasm with less stimulus. Eventually when you are in a real encounter where the stimulus is really strong, your body ejaculates just because of thoughts or mild touches just because it learned to ejaculate at a lesser stimulus level. It never reaches it peak in order to cum. In other words there will be this lack of satisfaction. You will not achieve the same amount of pleasure from sex as a normal man would. This can seriously affect your qualify of life.

4) pain in legs
while I do not know the exact science of it but you develop pain in legs that in calf area. You will never see this pain if you do not do any hard activity, but if you stress yourself in a game for example or jogging etc, you will see this pain. I have confirmed this is related to masturbation. If you stop it, then pain goes away.

5) pain in lower back
again this is not obvious to feel. Let say your stress you back a little and you will feel it (do not ever do that in purpose). An example would if you play squash (or racket) which uses your back extensively, you will feel this pain. I had to quit squash because of this pain and I knew it why it was.

6) pain in groin area
  this happens if you indulge yourself in a long masturbation activity. What happens is you start masturbation, then when you are near the edge, you stop it, then continue it again. If you do it for long time, you will have an obvious pain in the groin. At that time it would feel so strong that you would want to stand up.

7) loss in memory I have come across this first hand as well. Loss of memory does not occur because of masturbation. I believe masturbation help boost the memory. Loss of memory occurs because of excessive thinking about unhealthy thing such as sex all the time and being obsessed with it. A point comes that your memory does not help you at all. You are not sure if you locked the door, you forget people name right in front of them, you forget where you parked your car.
Below are psychological effects which are common with any addiction not necessarily just masturbation.

8) isolation from society
one of the reason you masturbate is because you do not need company, you just live with masturbation. It never lets you be bored. It is always available and if it is why not just use it rather than seek a company?

masturbation a lot makes you isolated. It is not that serious because you will have regular interaction with people. However at times if you are obsessed with masturbation, you will realize you do not have any friend, you do not have any girl friend, you do not see any body, you are living in your own world.
