Question 1

could masturbation cause a bad disease?

Accepted Answer

No: No reason why it should unless someone lays on a guilt trip which remains and you go into a long term depression. Masturbation is healthy and normal for human beings ; some animals.

Question 2

i masturbated on a daily basis for past 7 years . i want to stop this. am i suffering from any serious disease or can it cause any serious disease?

Accepted Answer

No: Masturbation is a natural human function.  There are no "diseases" associated with masturbation.

Question 3

can overly rough masturbation cause peyronie's disease?

Accepted Answer

No: "scar tissue" that builds up in peyronie's does not look microscopically like scar tissue from injury, and i doubt there is a connection. However, a fracture of the corpora can leave you with a bent penis. Have fun but be reasonably gentle.

Question 4

if masturbation does not cause disease so why most of the religions do not allow us to do it ?

Accepted Answer

Is that so?: Speaking as a protestant christian, i'd like to reassure you that that vast majority of us, including our leaders, have no problem with you enjoying yourself in private. People who warn you of "spiritual dangers" here are perhaps simply trying to make you afraid to sell a dubious product. Talk to someone who's a member of your faith community and has some common sense ; decency.

Question 5

i inserted a lollipop that i was eating in my anus for fun while masturbating and then my finger (i washed my finger) can this cause any disease?

Accepted Answer

Sex play: No. There is no disease caused by exposure to a lollipop.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

: Masturbation is never harmful. Assuming no mechanical devices are used, no damage can occur and Pyronies disease will not result. You'll be fine.

Question 7

can masturbation cause heart disease?

Accepted Answer

Masturbation: Masturbation has not been shown to cause heart disease. Given that the physiologic responses are those of the sex act, it is unlikely that it would cause serious physiologic dysfunction.

Question 8

can a lot of masturbation cause any type of prostate disease or cancer?

Accepted Answer

No: In fact some studies suggest that sexually active men may reduce their risk of prostate cancer.

Question 9

i am 25 years of age. i am infected with latent syphilis. . please help me. the cause of this disease is excessive masturbation.

Accepted Answer

Unusual statement: You don't get syphilis by masturbating.You get it from an infected person having some form of sexual contact or you are born with it passed down by your mother.Latent syphillis is curable with antibiotic treatment although some of the damaage done by the germs may not return to normal.

Question 10

i can't find out the main cause of hairloss i don't have genetic affect, no stress, no illness masturbation not linked with hairloss as doctors belive?

Accepted Answer

It's genetic: Male pattern baldness is usually unmistakable by its distribution and how it tends to affect men with thicker bears and more body hair earlier. It's polygenic and you can only make a first estimate from dad and granddad. Entertaining yourself absolutely does not cause it. Your choices include surgery, medicines, and embracing your heritage, getting really fit, and looking and feeling fantastic.
