I've been dealing with overmasturbation for about 23 years, sometimes up to 12 times a day. In the past 12 months, I've been feeling really weak and facing issues with erections, along with other side effects. I'm turning 19 years old in June. Is there a way to permanently treat this? Can I fully recover and enjoy a healthy sexual life in the future? Please help me out here.

It's important to remember that while occasional masturbation is normal, excessive or compulsive behavior can lead to physical and mental exhaustion. Reducing the frequency and focusing on a healthy lifestyle, including proper diet, exercise, and mental well-being, can help restore balance. If you're facing persistent issues like erectile dysfunction, its a good idea to consult a healthcare professional who can provide personalized advice and support. Recovery is possible with the right approach!

I'm really curious about how I can make my penis muscles stronger. Do Kegel exercises help with that, or should I focus on other physical exercises too? I want to know which exercises are the most effective for strengthening those muscles.

To strengthen the penis muscles, focus on exercises that target the pelvic floor muscles, such as Kegel exercises, which involve contracting and releasing the muscles that stop urine flow; other beneficial exercises include pelvic tilts, bridges, and squats; additionally, physical exercises like weightlifting, running, and swimming can improve overall cardiovascular health and blood flow, which can also benefit penis health; remember to also practice good lifestyle habits, such as maintaining a healthy weight, managing stress, and getting enough sleep.
