Help! need to know if there's any health benefit from masturbating?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None to speak of: This really opens the idea to what one can call a health benefit. As far as helping you grow taller, gain or lose weight, live longer, etc., I am not aware of any recorded benefit.This is also considered a natural part of developing and maintaining a sexual identity for most individuals.Whether a transient or long term practice, it is considered normal.
