Question 1

is masturbation and sex good for your health?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: Both are natural. So long as the your partner is healthy, then sex can be good for your mental health as well as your physical health. Masturbation can relieve stress. Assuming you are not masturbating to the point where it interferes with your other life activities, it is ok for you to do so.

Question 2

how do masturbation and sex feel different for a gal?

Accepted Answer

Masturbation orgasms: Should be achievable on a consistent basis. That may not be true regarding sex act. Masturbation lacks intimacy and is usually not shared.

Question 3

how to live a good teenage life without masturbation and sex thoughts ?

Accepted Answer

Teens and sex: The large majority of doctors agree that it is normal human behavior to masturbate and have sex thoughts.  Normal teenagers usually have large swings in their sex hormones which can accentuate the normal sexual drive and therefore sometimes increase the frequency of masturbation and sexual thoughts.  This is normal, and this happens to "good" teenages as well as "bad" teenagers.

Question 4

can a victim of sexual excess make his semen healthy again without any medicines just by reducing masturbation and sex frequency and taking good diet?

Accepted Answer

Sexual excess?: Masturbation is normal so exactly what do you mean by excess? 1--20 times a day? What is your sexual frequency? At your age your testicles will produce abundant sperm in response to age related levels of testosterone.

Question 5

is there such a thing as sex/porn addiction? if you would like to cut down on masturbation and sex is this an unnatural/impossible impulse?

Accepted Answer

Two different issues: Addiction is defined as a pursuit (drugs, pornography, etc) that interferes with healthy behaviors. If you watch porn several hours a day instead of working, or interacting with family, then it is an addiction. But watching some pornography and masturbating less than 3 x a day is probably not addictive behavior. It is just being a normal guy. Do it in moderation and consider yourself normal.

Question 6

i'm 29 years old and get dull chest pain during masturbation and sex but only when i'm really aroused i do not get this when exercising or exerting myself in other situations my echocardiogram is fine and stress test is good as well.what could this b?

Accepted Answer

: A negative treadmill stress test is reassuring that coronary artery disease is not a cause of your chest discomfort. I assume it's of rib cage origin when you're sexually aroused but you don't have the identical rib cage musculoskeletal reaction during other exertion or exercise. Some people get headache.during sexual activity which is also from tension in the forehead musculature.

Question 7

why do i have a stronger orgasm through masturbation and not sex?

Accepted Answer

Hand has help: When you masturbate, your brain gives you exact and perfect feed back as to how hard, how fast, where to rub, etc. During sex, even the best partner can only hope to know exactly what you need. In short, it is your brains ability to tell your hand what to do that makes your hand create the strongest orgasms.

Question 8

is it ok to masturbate and have sex in your first trimester of pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Should be fine.

Question 9

i have some erection problems, its fully hard at masturbation and before sex, but when putting a condom and preparing for penetration it goes soft?

Accepted Answer

May benefit from med: Maintenance of erection has a psychological component that may be an issue.  From a practical point of view, try using cialis or viagra (sildenafil) to see if that relieves the problem

Question 10
