I'm curious about whether masturbating twice a week would cause a significant calorie loss. Also, does it have any impact on different parts of the body?

Masturbating twice a week burns about 20-30 calories per session. It's generally not harmful and doesn't significantly affect the body, though it can lead to temporary fatigue or muscle soreness in some people. As long as it's balanced with a healthy lifestyle, it's unlikely to cause any long-term issues.

Gymming after kidney stone treatment can be beneficial for your overall health, but it's essential to take it slow and follow medical advice. While it's tempting to jump back into your regular routine, easing into exercise will give your body the time it needs to heal.
