Too Much Of a Good Thing

[Felix_Jones]

I heard on some sex talk show that if you masturbate every day for something like 6 months then you might have a problem. So then, how much is too much? How much do you do it? I go once a day at least. Probably more on weekends. Is that too much?

Hell no, Felix, your body will tell you when it is time to rest. Mine does.

 

[Felix_Jones]

That's pretty good advice. Thanks!

Like anything else, if your behavior is interfering with your life (work, school, relationships, health, mood, etc.), there's a good chance it's a problem. If masturbating once--or several times--a day isn't having a negative impact on any other facet of your health or life, you're probably still on the healthy side of the spectrum. Either way, if it might be concerning you, it's probably worthy of a closer look.

Thanks for the great answer. What does 'a closer look' entail? Like maybe some internet research or somethin?

If once a day for 6 months is a problem, then I must have gone way past the problem level. I should be able to claim nymphomaniac status or something since I usually hit 3-12 times a day and have since I was 15.

How is masturbating a problem? Is too much sex a problem? I highly doubt it. If masturbating too much is a problem, it's a problem I absolutely wanna' have... perhaps the ONLY problem I wanna' have. Shit, if you wanna' masturbate 37 times a day, go ahead. Sure, your balls might shrivel up and your sac might dry up, but if that's what you want...

Sometimes you hear of guys who masturbate so much that when they actually get a chance to have sex with a woman that they can't cum because their body has acclimatized itself to cumming through masturbation only.

Then a career as a porn star would be in order.

Not sure, but that might be when you start blasting it in your own face ...

Although inability to produce massive amounts of semen to release onto your female co-stars face/breasts/whatever might be a bit of a hinderance. We all know all good porn involves masses of cum

That's irrelevant since you can cheat on the cum in porn. You can manufacture it with an egg white mixture.

you might find this poll from a few years back educational: you're far from alone. :>

in terms of "a closer look", i suspect erika was talking about consulting a medical professional.

I saw on Web Dreams (IFC docu series about the online porn industry, much of it filmed here in Mtl) that they used after-sun lotion in lieu of actual cum. Huh!

Or this thead (same subject) might be of interest.

If every day is a problem, I've had serious issues pretty much since I hit puberty!

 

[irishwoody]

Yes - I'm averaging 2.142 times a day for me now... so once a day is probably OK

 

[jradek75]

Who the hell cares what some jerkoff on a radio show says? Really. If it doesn't negatively affect your life, you're fine. If you're constantly neglecting your partner because of it, then you might have a problem. Otherwise, I wouldn't worry about it unless you're Irish and you masturbate 2.142 times a day. Then all hell will break loose.

I have empirical data that suggests that there is no harm. Problem is I only have one data point...ME!

 

[irishwoody]

Of course I don't really count/average. I see that as a pointless exercise - was trying to bring some humour to the subject ...

Well, if it gets sore and you can't cum for a long time, give it a rest. Nothing wrong with enjoying yourself.

Now, if you are breaking laws, you have a problem. Public masturbation, stuff like that.

 

[Felix_Jones]

Thanks

Seems like sound advice, thanks all.

I read a while ago that cumming every day reduces the risk of prostate cancer so better hit it at least once a day
keeps the mood up as well

I was also advised by my GP that "regular ejaculation" can help prevent epididimitis (sp?) as it helps stop the tubes getting blocked. (To be fair, he didn't define "regular" )

Once a year on Christmas Day, without fail, regular as clockwork

If you masturbate at all, you will spend your afterlife in hell for all eternity. Other than that you are perfectly fine. If it starts to hurt you might want to give it some rest, another day will come for sure.
