Does masturbation affect sexual life and cause erection problems?

Question

Hello doctor,

I am 28-year-old male with a height of 174 centimeter and weight 65 kilograms. I was married recently. Earlier I was having hand practice and now after marriage I could not satisfy my wife. Will you please guide me how I can recover naturally? I am not addicted to any alcohol and not even cigarette. I am able to get erection but I think it is not enough to satisfy my wife.

Answer 1

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I am glad to assist you. Masturbation is a healthy process that does not cause long-term harm to the body. Only excessive masturbation, like 7 to 8 times per week, can lead to premature ejaculation in the future, which can affect married life.

First, I would advise you to get rid of your anxiety. You are a perfectly healthy adult male who will enjoy great sex life. A lot of times, psychological barriers hamper sexual life, and people start thinking that since I used to masturbate, I will not be able to have a good sex life. This is not true. Masturbation is a completely healthy process that ensures your proper sperm production.

I will ask you to abstain from sexual activity for a week, avoid masturbation and start intercourse after the break. Your erections will be stronger. Please do not let anxiety hamper your erections. It is the number one reason why people fail to get strong erections.

Take capsule Absolut 3 g. It is a multivitamin and must be taken once daily before sleeping.
Take the tablet Evion 400 (vitamin E and anti-oxidants). It helps in sperm formation, thereby improving sex life indirectly.
Exercise daily and follow a healthy diet with lots of green leafy vegetables.
Incorporate walking. Remember that anything that improves blood circulation in your body helps in erection. So walking for 30 to 45 minutes every day is recommended for staying in good health.
