Question

Hey, I've been wondering if masturbating twice a day could be bad for my health. I came across an article saying it helps reduce stress and acts as a great stress reliever. But I'm also seeing other articles and hearing from some counselors that masturbating too often might affect sperm production and could cause a burning feeling during urination. Could you let me know what you think? I'd really like to understand if there are any long-term health implications of doing it regularly. Also, please keep this conversation private between us. I'm just trying to be proactive about my health.

Well sir masturbation is a normal physiological process and it's healthy as long as you are not obssessed to it or it disrupts your normal life...So just keep it in limits.
