So let&rsquo;s immediately dispel the myths: no, it does not make you deaf; no, it does not trigger mental illness. There. Now let&rsquo;s get to the serious stuff.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In recent years, masturbation has become more accepted, both among men and women. But is there really such a thing as too much? The short answer is no, but with nuance. Masturbation is a natural and healthy practice, and like anything, moderation is key.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While there are no physical dangers associated with frequent masturbation, excessive self-pleasure can sometimes lead to chafing, temporary sensitivity issues, or muscle fatigue. The real risks are more psychological: guilt, shame, or using masturbation as an escape from real-life problems.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For men, excessive masturbation with a tight grip can sometimes lead to delayed ejaculation during partnered sex, as the penis becomes accustomed to a specific type of stimulation. This condition, known as delayed ejaculation, can be frustrating for both partners.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For women, frequent masturbation might temporarily desensitize the clitoris if vibrators are used excessively, but this is usually reversible with a short break.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bottom line: masturbation is healthy and normal. It only becomes a problem when it interferes with your daily life, relationships, or responsibilities. If you feel you are masturbating compulsively or it is causing distress, it may be worth speaking to a therapist.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a question many men ask themselves.
