Masturbation: From a medical standpoint there is no damage caused by this normal and natural human experience. Masturbation is a natural human event that adds depth to our human experience. It is part of being a sexual being and should not be considered in any way abnormal. Now. If you have religious views that contradict this medical information please find a trusted advisor who can help you through this.
