A member asked:
Does masturbating a lot have any side effects? hormmone levels or any other things?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Masturbation should be harmless to the body as long as he or she does not use too much force or friction on his or her genitals. One should realize that the body has essentially the same response to masturbation as to sex for the purpose of reproduction. That means the body reacts just as it does during sexual intercourse, which, of course, has no harmful side effects on the body.
