I'm a 13-year-old boy and I've been really concerned about my habit of masturbation. I usually do it about twice a day, and lately, I've been feeling really tired and skinny. I'm worried there's something wrong. Are there any negative side effects I should know about? And if it's a problem, what can I do to reduce how often I masturbate? I'm kinda stressed about it and would appreciate any advice you have.

Excessive masturbation can lead to physical and mental health issues. It is important to find ways to reduce this habit. To avoid masturbation, you can try the following. Keep yourself busy with activities such as sports, hobbies, or spending time with friends and family. Practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation to reduce stress and anxiety, which can trigger the urge to masturbate. Avoid triggers such as pornography or being alone in private spaces for extended periods. Seek counseling or therapy to address any underlying emotional issues that may be contributing to this habit. In addition, to help with your fatigue and weight loss, you may consider taking a multivitamin supplement to ensure you are getting essential nutrients. Also, try to maintain a balanced diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. If you continue to feel tired and skinny, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance.

I've been masturbating every day since I was 13, and I'm now 19. I'm worried because I feel like it's making my penis smaller. Are there any supplements, oils, or exercises that can help make it bigger? Also, what precautions should I take?
It's important to note that masturbation does not affect the size of your penis. Penis size is primarily determined by genetics and natural growth during puberty, which typically concludes in your late teens. If you're concerned about your health or body image, I recommend speaking with a healthcare professional to discuss any worries and get personalized advice.

I've had a burning sensation when peeing ever since my C-section and catheter removal six years ago, but my cystoscopy showed everything was normal. What could be causing this ongoing issue?
A persistent burning sensation when peeing after a C-section and catheter removal, even after a normal cystoscopy, could be due to several factors, including interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome, urethral stricture, or chronic inflammation related to the surgery. Further evaluation may be needed to determine the cause and appropriate treatment
