Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am a 24-year-old unmarried guy addicted to masturbation. I need help to control my masturbation habit. It started around nine years back. It is malfunctioning my brain, and becoming more dangerous day by day, I started fantasying about my sister, by watching all the incest porn. I cannot even control myself, I am in a very dangerous situation. I need a remedy to end the thoughts of mine. Please suggest to me a prescription or a medication that has no side effects in the future.
Thankyou.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I can understand your concern. First of all, keep one thing in mind that masturbation is a safe and healthy habit. It does not cause weakness in the body or any effects on reproduction. Masturbation is normal. But yes if you have developed incestuous ideas and you cannot control these then this is a matter to think about. No medicines can control the habit of masturbation. To reduce the frequency you can try to keep yourself busy. Exercise, music therapy, etc can help in reducing the habit. Avoid watching porn and if possible masturbate by fantasy. This will also help to control the habit.
I hope this helps you.
Thanks.
Regards.
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
Thank you very much for the answer,
I am looking for a remedy to almost completely stop the habit, if possible at any cost. I agree that it is healthy (if I have done that once or twice in a month) but do you think doing it four to five times every single day is healthy? It makes me sad and it was decreasing my level of satisfaction each time, so I am forced to be trying new and weird stuff, and I think my mind started the fantasies. I also heard that over and uncontrolled masturbation will cause diseases like erectile dysfunction, and premature ejaculation. I am worried about my family life, as I said now I am not married but, I hope it will happen soon. What if these problems or desires haunt my normal sexual life with my life partner? Please help.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I can understand your concern. As I said in the last answer too that masturbation does not cause premature ejaculation or erectile dysfunction later in life. So do not worry about this. Yes, masturbation four to five times a day is really in excess and this should be controlled definitely. But as I have said no medicines can control masturbation, it is more of a learned habit. The enjoyment or orgasm is a trigger factor that results in more desire to masturbate. This can be reduced only by a change in behavior. One option is to reduce the frequency progressively. Like now you are masturbating four to five times a day. Spend more time outdoors and try to reduce the time by two to three times daily. Progressively reduce the frequency to once per day. Strenuous exercise, increased social interaction with others, spending more time outdoors, etc are the main factors that can help to reduce the frequency.
I hope this helps you.
Thank you.
Regards.
