You need to have partner to do that..

Disadvantage....

Oh there is no Partner.

There are actually some health benefits to masturbation. Many times we forget that sexual health is a component of overall health. My sister, who was a secondary virgin and awaiting Mr. Right, went through a phase where she was passing out several times a week. When she went to the doctor the first thing he asked her was "When is the last time you had sex?" This is an extreme example but it shows how the buildup of sexual tension can physically affect a person. Here are some other benefits:
-In masturbating, a person learns how they like to be touched and can express this to a partner for more pleasurable sex
-It's safer than sex with another person in that you don't have to worry about pregnancy or an STD
-For women, masturbation eases PMS and menstrual cramps
-Masturbation causes muscle relaxation and an overall calming affect afterwards. The release of endorphins causes feelings of physical and mental well-being so it also reduces stress.
-Masturbation enhances self-esteem
-It helps you fall asleep

Here are some disadvantages to masturbating:
-It can interfere with a relationship if you enjoy it so much that you forego sex with a partner to masturbate instead
-Frequent rigorous masturbation without lubrication can cause scratches or cuts
-Anxiety and guilt over masturbation can lead to unhealthy opinions of sex and, ultimately, sexual disfunction
-Although it is very rare, some people have been known to become addicted to masturbating. However, masturbating up to several times a day is considered normal, especially for males.
I hope this information is helpful.

I'm sorry. That comment was uncalled for. But I have to ask. Where did you get that information, daniel1234?

Sorry no..
Masturbation in men causes and increase of production of testosterone. If started during puberty it stands a chance of increasing height and muscle mass as well as hair growth, which may or may not desirable. Studies being conducted on ejaculation and brain function point towards enhance memory and lingual ability. I have seen no credible information that suggests that masturbation can impede memory unless it is done to the point of physical exhaustion, even then normal brain function returns with rest. Neither Masturbation or ejaculation has any direct impact on growth hormones, they are not emitted as a part of semen. The Proteins expelled when a man ejaculates are unable to be used by the body, they are created in the testes to nourish sperm and their only purpose involves being shot out of the body. Many religions discourage masturbation, only Roman Catholicism forbids it. At least two religions I know of ritualized masturbation. The AMA recommends men masturbate daily to maintain healthy reproductive function and help fight escalated risks of prostate cancer.
