What Is The Treatment To Get Rid Of Masturbation?

Hi,

I've been trying to stop the habit of masturbation for almost two years but I could stop it for at most 5 days then I do it again. I think that the problem is with the thoughts that I cannot stop for more that a few days.

I read online that some medicine like "Prozac" will be useful in my case but I'm not sure. I think that it would be embarrassing if I visited a physician for that purpose. I hope to find an answer here.

Thank you.

Hello,

Masturbation habit is a behavioural addiction and therefore you should go for behaviour therapy to reduce the frequency of masturbation.

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

Take care
