A member asked:
Will masturbating affect clearing up my chlamydia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Use good hygiene: You should wash your hands with warm soapy water before and after, and make sure not to touch other mucous membranes or your eyes. There is some risk that it could slow the overall recovery but it is possible if done with care and vigilance.
