A member asked:
Hello, is it possible that frequent masturbation can make an inbalance in neurotransmitters/it makes you anxious/panic? ideal frequency in 20's/week?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: No study has ever shown any physical harm from excessive masturbation. The only harm i am aware of is the possibility of addiction, which can lead to some patients' being distracted from essential activities of life.
