Does Frequent Masturbation Cause Weak Erections And Erectile Dysfunction?

Hi, I have been experiencing weak erections due to frequent mastutabtion (maybe too frequent). Also, it happened twice where I wasnt able to maintain an erection while prior to having sex. I have read that masturbating and having sex can cause ED. Is the answer just stop masturbating to get harder and longer erections?

Hi,

No need to do that. Most humans do masturbation at any time in their life. It is a safe and healthy practice that is free of any serious side effects. It doesn't have any effect on sexual life, potency, sperm count, fertility or ejaculation time. It is a completely safe practice.

- Masturbation doesn't result in low penis size. Penis size depends upon race, ethnicity and genetic makeup of individuals. Overall, if an individual is getting a good erection then penis size doesn't have any effect on sexual life.

- There is no future risk of mental health with masturbation. But don't involve in excessive masturbation like multiple times a day using pornographic materials and adults magazines. As such type of things result in loss of important time and it can affect your studies and work. Overall directly it has no effect on mental health.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
