I'm curious about something. I used to masturbate and watch porn every day, but I've managed to stop for a week now, and I actually feel pretty good. Im just wondering, is it okay not to masturbate? Could there be any health issues if I choose not to?

View allIs circumcision really necessary to prevent infections and improve sexual health I'm worried about the procedure and how it might affect me
Circumcision can offer benefits in preventing certain infections and improving sexual health, but it's not a universal necessity. It's generally recommended for those in areas with high HIV prevalence and can lower the risk of penile cancer and urinary tract infections. However, there are also potential risks associated with the procedure, and the decision to circumcise should be made on a case-by-case basis after considering individual factors and consulting with a healthcare provider.
