Patient's question:
Hello, I have been masturbating for 20 years. I have experienced many aftereffects and feel extremely regretful! Is there a possibility of recovery after stopping? Are there other methods to treat the initial problem?First follow-up question: I am male!
Second follow-up question: Thank you for your reply. I just feel that my scrotum is very small! However, there is no problem with my testicles. Also, I feel that my penis is very small when I am not erect. Does this have anything to do with it?
Doctor's answer:
It is entirely possible to recover after stopping. In fact, masturbation is not necessarily bad. Don't listen to misleading opinions or exaggerated warnings. As long as it doesn't damage the penis or urethral opening and doesn't lead to infection, it's fine. Masturbation can be beneficial as well as harmful to both body and mind, but it generally doesn't harm the body, so there's no need to worry too much. Through long-term physical exercise, psychological and physical issues can be corrected. For your current situation, the first step is to stop masturbation, and the second is to pay attention to adjusting your diet and lifestyle. Participate actively in physical exercise on a regular basis to improve physical and mental fitness, enhance willpower, and avoid excessive indulgence or sexual activity after exhaustion.
