A member asked:
Hello. can masturbation hinder erection quality and intercourse ability? how much is healthy in moderation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Masturbation: A normal part of life is to masturbate- it becomes a compulsion only when it preoccupies your thoughts and time. Your ability to have intercourse depends on whether you have masturbated to the point where you can no longer achieve an erection or whether you would rather be masturbating.
