A member asked:
Is there an effective way to masturbate without getting acne breakouts?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Treat your acne: Whoever told you that acne is caused by masturbating was either ignorant or was misleading you for their own dark purposes. If you're between breakouts, i suggest daily application of benzoyl peroxide; if you've had bad acne flares, talk with your physician about perhaps a low maintenance dose of tetracycline. And embrace being an adult. Cheers.
