MUST READ: Interesting Facts Every Man Should Know about Masturbation

Research findings suggests that there are more males that engage in masturbation during their active sex life than there are females

After years of extensive, hands on experience, you think you know everything there is to know.

According to the experts, the research findings below would reveal more to you about masturbation

1. Masturbation have no health benefits as s*x does.

It appears that not all orgasms are created equally, says Tobias S. Khler, MD, MPH, an associate professor at Southern Illinois University School of Medicine in Springfield.

Study after study shows that intercourse has all sorts of benefits for men for your blood pressure, heart and prostate health, pain, and more. You’d think that masturbation would, too. But it doesn’t.

Why would it make a difference whether you ejaculate during s*x or on your own? No ones sure. But your body seems to respond differently.

Even the makeup of semen is different if you masturbate instead of having s*x.

Still, does it really matter? Have you honestly been masturbating all these years only because you wanted to boost your prostate health? Didn’t think so.

2. Masturbation is not risk-free.

Sure, its low risk. Its the safest form of s*x possible.

No one ever caught an STD from himself or made himself pregnant. But like other low risk activities (chewing, walking), it still has some risks.

Frequent or rough masturbation can cause minor skin irritation.

Forcefully bending an erect penis can rupture the chambers that fill with blood, a rare but gruesome condition called penile fracture.

Khler has seen guys with it after vigorous masturbation.

Afterward, the penis looks like an eggplant, he says. Its purple and swollen. Most men need surgery to repair it.

3. Theres no normal amount of masturbation.

Guys can get hung up on whether they masturbate too much.

But its not how many times you masturbate in a week (or day) that really matters, says Logan Levkoff, PhD, a s*xologist and s*x educator.

Its how it fits into your life.

If you masturbate many times a day and have a healthy, satisfying life, good for you.

But if you masturbate many times a day and youre missing work or giving up on s*x with your partner because of it, consider seeing a s*x therapist.

Even then, there’s nothing specific about masturbation that’s the problem.

Compulsive masturbation is like any behavior that disrupts your life whether its compulsively playing poker or buying Beanie Babies on eBay.

4. Masturbating doesn’t reflect on your relationship.

Levkoff says the most damaging myth about male masturbation is that its a sign something is wrong in your relationship.

The fact is that most guys masturbate.

They masturbate if theyre single, in a bad relationship, or in a great relationship.

Its just something they do that has nothing to do with their partners.

Masturbation isnt only about s*x, Levkoff says. For many, its a routine way of relieving stress, clearing your head before work, or going to sleep.

5. Masturbation is almost certainly good for your s*x life.
Masturbation can help your s*x life, since its how guys learn what they like during s*x.

I think women would be more satisfied s*xually in their relationships if they masturbated as much as men do, Levkoff says.

Are there exceptions? Some guys do get so hooked on a certain amount of pressure during masturbation or the stimulation of porn that they cant perform with a partner, says Ian Kerner, PhD, a sex therapist and author of She Comes First.

Still, Kerner says those guys are the exception. For the vast majority of men, masturbation is a healthy thing, he says.

I am usually more concerned about a guy who stopped masturbating which can be a sign of anxiety or health problems than a guy who is doing it regularly.
