I've been masturbating every day for the past three months and I'm worried if this could have any harmful effects or cause problems in the future. Can you give me some advice on whether this is something to be concerned about?

Masturbation is a normal and healthy part of human sexuality. Masturbating once a day for 3 months is unlikely to cause harm. However, consider:

Overstimulation: Frequent masturbation can lead to temporary desensitization or discomfort.

Skin irritation: Aggressive or rough masturbation can cause skin irritation or injury.

Impact on relationships: Excessive masturbation might affect your relationships or daily life.

No significant long-term problems are expected. If you're concerned, consult a healthcare provider or a sexologist for personalized advice.

I've been prescribed androanagen tablets and Tugain 5 solution for my hair loss, and I'm really worried after reading online that androanagen might lower testosterone levels, cause breast development, and reduce sex drive. Is this stuff true? Are there any other side effects I should know about?

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I've just had my first full body wax, and it's led to some red and itchy bumps on my stomach and back. I've only waxed my arms and legs before and didn't have this reaction. What can I use to help reduce the itchiness and redness? Would a specific cream or tablet be best?

I've been dealing with some itching in my crotch area and inner thigh, and there's also a noticeable smell. I think it might be because I work out but only shower about twice a week. I just picked up Candid TV suspension and itch guard from the chemist. I'm wondering if using these will fix the issue or if there's more I should be doing. Also, is it okay to use soap in the groin area, or should I avoid it?

No. continue same treatment.
