View allI'm 23 and sometimes I struggle to control this habit. I've heard from others that doing this can mean losing sperm in the future, and it's really worrying me. Could you help clarify this for me?
If you are concerned about excessive masturbation or it is interfering with your daily life, you may consider reducing the frequency. It is important to maintain a healthy balance in all aspects of life. There is no scientific evidence to suggest that masturbation leads to loss of sperm or infertility in the future. It is a natural and normal part of human sexuality. If you have any concerns about your sexual health or habits, it is always a good idea to speak with a healthcare provider for personalized advice and guidance.

I'm a bit worried because I've noticed a change in my urine color; it's turned orange. I'm also experiencing some stomach discomfort. Could this be caused by taking Supradyn capsules? And if it's not related to that, what else might be causing orange urine?
Supradyn capsules, a multivitamin supplement, are unlikely to cause a change in urine color or stomachache; orange urine can indicate dehydration, consumption of foods like carrots or rhubarb, or supplements containing riboflavin (B2) or beta-carotene, but it can also be a sign of an underlying medical condition, such as liver or kidney disease, so if you're concerned consult urologist
