A member asked:

Does avoiding masturbation have any health benefits? ive seen a lot of people online say it helps achieve better health but i just find it hard to believe?

No: It absolutely doesn't matter how often a person masturbates as long he or she is living a normal happy life... and the masturbation is not interfering with one's normal daily activities. If that is not the case, and a person is masturbating too little, or too much, and it's becoming one of life's stressors, then he or she can take a trip to the doctor's office to evaluate the whole big picture.
