Is masturbation harmful to the body, and how can it be quit?

Patient's question:

I am a boy in my twenties and have the habit of masturbation, but it's not regular. I don't watch pornographic movies or magazines (I sometimes look at them if I happen to come across them). I think masturbation might be harmful to the body, but because of the pleasure it brings, I can't give it up. How can I quit it?

Doctor's answer:

Method
  1、Diversification Method: Fully arrange and utilize your spare time reasonably to ensure you have no time to think about masturbation.
  2、Learning Method: Correctly understand the human body, recognize the harms of the masturbation habit, and eliminate the mystery surrounding sex.
  3、"Evil" Elimination Method: Concentrate your attention, eliminate distractions, and persist in avoiding contact with various unhealthy publications and TV programs.
  4、Sleep Method: It is best to wait until you are already drowsy and go to bed immediately to sleep. The time before getting up in the morning is also the most likely time for masturbation. If you have the urge to urinate, do not hold it in and discharge it promptly to prevent the penis from getting erect.
Steps
  1、Before going to bed, persist in exercising intensely for twenty minutes to half an hour, reaching the point of fatigue. Wash your face and feet with cold water, and then immediately go to bed.
  2、After going to bed, eliminate all thoughts and close your eyes to sleep.
  3、If you happen to be unable to fall asleep, you should strictly control yourself and avoid thinking about anything related to sex.
  4、If the above methods are still ineffective, you can insert headphones and listen to a program that you are not interested in. When the thought of masturbation flashes through your mind, consciously overcome it.
  5、For those with a strong urge to masturbate, you should try to reduce the time spent alone and spend more time with others, which is essentially a way to eliminate the habit of masturbation.
