Can excessive masturbation cause ibs??
7 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Some handy facts...: No, masturbation does not cause irritable bowel syndrome. Masturbation isn't harmful, as the body goes through similar effects during regular sex with a partner (but too much of anything may become a problem). Masturbation does not stunt height, cause hair loss, make you weak, create heart problems, lower testosterone, affect virginity, lower fertility, change your weight, or damage eyes, etc...

No: Having bowel problems is difficult enough without misinformed / manipulative people telling you things that aren't true. Best of luck caring for your GI health.
