I think if you post your question in the Mens sexual health forums you may get some more answers. I'm sorry I really don't have the answer for you.

Yes this could lead to a not so good future if not brought under control soon. Your hormones need to be check ASAP. Testorstrone levels.

Masturbation is not a bad thing. I masturbate frequently myself and find a lot of stress relieve from it, but it should not be your only avenue for sexual satisfaction. Since you have been masturbating from 11 yrs old (9 yrs so far) I can see how you have become accustomed to this method of relieving your sexual urges. I would suggest a candid conversation with your doctor as he/she could provide some insite and perhaps suggest some additonal help or persons to consult with. You should bring this under control, but realize that it does not have to be eliminated - on the other hand it cannot be you only means of satisfying your sex cravings.
Aside from this form, seek some professional consultation from a health care professional.

I really don't think what your explaining is that big of a deal. Everyone has done it 1-3 times in one day at some point and if they deny it, they are lying.

It's natural, and doesn't have any adverse effects. There much worse that you could be addicted to.

The only thing that I can see being a problem is doing it in public, but you said you stopped that already.

Its a stress reliever, do it in privacy, and don't worry about it.

your ok lol i do it 1-2 times a day if you enjoy it then its gd. don't get sore. use lube.

I think its normal i think it said that men think about sex every 7 seconds

i still wank 3 times a day

I do it almost every day, especially if I haven't gotten any sex through other means.

I do it about twice a week because I am a 66 year old man and still want sex but unable to get an erection and this is the only way I can get off!

bo21,
Good for you! That's excellent at age 66. But you say that you are unable to get an erection - do you get a partial erection or do you cum with a flacid penis? Just curious.

Wendy

I cum with a flacid penis, any suggestion that may help me get an erection? Is it nature for a 66 year old man not to be able to ge it hard?

yes r addict bt leme tell u one thing dat mistrubations is nt bad at all its a part of life n satisfating body too u should do it once a day dats it...

bo21,
I would suggest that you see your doctor regarding the alternatives that are out there today.

Wendy

Far out do it as much as you like its fine and healthy. you will soon get bored once you have had enough.

I masturbate simply because while I am still married, we are separated. I can't start a new relationship while I am in this one. I doubt that she is being celibate, since she cheated during the time we were together, but I can only live my life. I can also be assured that I can't catch an STD from myself. Just one quick question: Should I replace the picture of her that I removed from my wallet with one of my right hand?

Young men naturally get sexually excited many times a day. If can masturbate many times a day and have the time and place to do it.... FEEL FREE... enjoy this time of your life like any other. Look up the definition of psychological addictions. Generally as long as the activity in question is not interfering with other necessary parts of your life or social life, you are just fine. Enjoy yourself, clean up after yourself and don't beat yourself up over beating off.
