A member asked:
What is the effect of masturbation?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
None: It is merely a freshly desire. Some men do it to "clean the pipes" in order to decrease prostatitis symptoms. That is effective for some men. There are no serious medical consequences to "normal" masturbation for men or women.

Masturbation: Usually nothing other than ejaculation.
