Patient's question:
I started masturbating since my freshman year of high school, and it has been 7 years since I graduated from college. Occasionally, there are nights when I don't masturbate, but when I do, it's several times a night. Now I don't have morning erections anymore? Could I have a prostate disease? How can I quit?Doctor's answer:
Masturbation is like drinking alcohol—moderate amounts are beneficial, while excessive amounts are harmful. If you are masturbating several times a night, it might be a bit frequent. If you don’t experience any symptoms like frequent urination or incomplete urination, it’s unlikely to be prostatitis.As for masturbation, don’t focus too much on it. Instead, actively participate in various forms of exercise to release excess energy. Avoid spending time alone aimlessly—spend more time talking with friends and gathering with them to distract yourself. When the body is full of semen, it will naturally discharge. However, masturbating once a week won’t affect your life and can help reduce stress.
There’s no need to take special medication. Simply reduce the frequency of masturbation, improve nutrition, and enhance exercise. Generally speaking, before the age of 35, the body is full of vitality, so there’s no need to take aphrodisiacs. You can take some Yin-nourishing supplements instead. For example, Hui Ren Shen Bao is a balanced Yin and Yang formula, and Liu Wei Di Huang Wan is a suitable choice.
