Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
Welcome to HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I understand your concern.
I would like to assure you one thing that this is a natural act and everyone does it. In fact many people enjoy doing it even after marriage. This might be in your case too. This activity is totally harmless.
There are no medications available and in fact there is no need of medications for this.
If you want to stop it your strong will is the best medicine.
Many people use fluoxetine for this purpose but that too only in case where masturbation is effecting the normal life of the person. Excess of everything is bad.
If you have any further query please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
