Specializes in General Practice

Masturbation: Nope. Masturbation is a common and natural part of the human experience. The frequency you describe is very common in younger people. There is absolutely no medical or health reason to limit one's sexual activity.

Just 26 and no sexual desire since 3 years. No urge for sex or even to masterbate. Even watching porn doesn't affect me. I do get orgasm but I don't enjoy it, it's just my body reacting to it. This is stressing me now?
