Is It Safe To Have Masturbation Every Day?
Question: Is every one or two day masturbation harmful for body or mental activity ?
Also I watch a lot of porn sites and gather photos and videos and after some days delete them from my laptop.
I often like female to sex but sometimes I tend to see preteen and teen boys porn sites and gather photos and then delete them.
I'm not married yet.

Hello,
Thanks for writing to us.
Let me tell you some thing about masturbation.
Masturbation is natural and normal thing.It is done by 95% of the males in the world,mostly before marriage as well as when wife is away, in menses or pregnant after marriage. It is not at all harmful. Frequency of masturbation done by an individual varies from once a day to once a week. It depends upon individual libido, wish and timing. It neither causes any weakness nor any problem in sexual activity.
However when masturbation becomes compulsive or used as cope of behavior to relieve stress and person feels uncomfortable when he cannot do it, it is problematic.From your history I do not think that it is like that.
Most of the men do masturbation by watching porn.
If your masturbation and habit of watching porn are not compulsion and they are not affecting your work,social life or daily schedule and in absence of the same you do not feel discomfort, no need to worry.
You are doing this to satisfy your sexual desire and that is normal.
This habit will stop automatically when you will have a girlfriend or wife.
From above information let me know that do you have any problem or not.
I will be happy to help further.
