The Side Effects of (over)-masturbation

[TranceNRG]

OK...

For now, let's keep our eyes open that in case we encountered any studies/articles about masturnation, to post them here.

[LatsMakeTheMan]

Masturbation, along with fast food and jiu-jitsu-related genocide of brain cells, is just a necessary evil in my life, regardless of the consequences.



Now, let's go back to that.....building thingy......where our beds and TV.....is.

Massively O/T, but:

I dunno about you man, but weed gives me fuzzy vision. Normally I'm 20/20 but I smoked one day before hitting the range to see the effect it would have on muscle stabilization. It made it harder to focus my eyes.

I much prefer very low doses of diazepam, though I imagine it would be quite difficult to run and jump in a real high-stress situation under the influence. This only really makes a difference past a few hundred yards. I do begin to notice a difference @ 300 meters and w/ rifles with heavier triggers. Effects were almost unnoticeable @ 100 yards, with all rounds (D-pam and sober) falling sub-MOA @ 100 yards supported (bipod) sitting.

lol

I haven't the foggiest idea actually - despite the entreaties of the atrocious human beings who pass for my friends, I've never smoked. I just couldn't think of anything else. No idea what diazepam is but it sounds delicious.

well I fap once a day and haven't died yet.

OK...
So, the reason I'm posting this, is because the topic of masturbation came up in my neuroscience lab, which consequently led me to do my own quick research.

Over Masturbation Resource

There are numerous side effects atteched to "over" masturbation. According to doctors, anything over 2-3 times per week is over-masturbation.

And here are some side-effects:

Frequent masturbation and ejaculation stimulate acetylcholine/parasympathetic nervous functions excessively, resulting in the over production of sex hormones and neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine, dopamine and serotonin. Abundant and unusually amount of these hormones and neurotransmitters can cause the brain and adrenal glands to perform excessive dopamine-norepinephrine-epinephrine conversion and turn the brain and body functions to be extremely sympathetic. In other words, there is a big change of body chemistry when one excessively pratices masturbation.

Fatigue. Feeling tired all the time
Lower back pain
Stress / Anxiety
Thinning hair / Hair Loss
Soft / Weak Erection
Premature Ejaculation
Eye floaters or fuzzy vision
Groin / Testicular Pain
Pain or cramp in the pelvic cavity or/and tail bone


Also...
Studies have shown the masturbation (ejaculation) leads to an increase in the secretion of plasma prolactin, which in turn lead to a decrease in Testosterone. And it seems the decrease in test. is done by its conversion to DHT --> Hair loss

Recent advance in the treatment of male pattern baldness have revealed that hair loss in males is directly related to DHT and the amount in your body. It is also an understanding that the production of DHT is related to sex and/or masturbation. With that in mind, does that mean there is a link between hair loss and masturbation?

Over-masturbation or over-ejaculation converts too much testosterone into dihydrotestosterone(DHT). High levels of DHT overload the body causing baldness and possible prostate enlargement if blood circulation is poor in the prostate area. Reducing the frequency of masturbation or ejaculation will help maintain low levels of DHT and avoid hair loss.

Endocrine Effects of Maturbation in Men



Let's use this thread to find and post good articles/studies about masturbation.

There seems to be alot of controversy.

I always feel much more energetic and agressive/assertive from not masturbating.

I think the old fight wisdom is correct.

This is all true... Nuggz ur in trouble

[IronManXXX]

Seriously..........Who actually has time to worry / study this crap?


If you want to masturbate that is your business. There are definitely better things you could be doing with your time, but who cares.


If you don't want to masturbate, then good for you, I'm sure Jesus has a special cookie for you in heaven. Now shut up please !

[NuggzTheNinja]

This is all true... Nuggz ur in trouble

Why would my SN even come to your mind in a thread about masturbation? Sounds like you've got a case of homo-itis.

[Popsicle52]

[Mark_ey]

[NuggzTheNinja]

[Chawk]

..... is there any difference between intercourse and masturbation ?

.....from a physical stand-point anyway.

[IraHays]

It's worse than serious. It's (serious).

lol

[Lager1]

Of course over-masturbation has negative effects..over ANYTHING has negative effects. If you take a nice, relaxing shower 19 times a day, your skin will fall off.

[gouscfootball]

God damn, what are they gonna come up with next..too much sex leads to cancer?

[Fidelis]

That's what Stuart Brody in his scientific studies claims.

Talk about pseudo-****ing-science.

There's also the risk of being caught by ceiling cat.

i'm not even gonna read this thread past the first post, so excuse me if this has already been pointed out. i'm not taking any study serious that says "masturbation" causes anything. it's ejaculation. it's not like your f*cking body knows whether it's your hand, a girls mouth, a pussy, a dude's ass, or a cows vagina giving it stimulation. so screw all "masturbation" studies. any study using "masturbation" in the title leads me to believe these studies are done by religious people trying to scare people away from touching themselves. otherwise, why specificy ejaculation via your hand?

[~Serpent~]

Don't hate, masterbate

strong bump

[lowstrife]

But... wouldn't the same thing be said about sex?

Sex is basically the same thing as masturbation, so by the same logic we should limit sex to 2-3 times per week. Anything more than that is unhealthy!

[Jnoah89]

To much of anything can't be good for you.

[rake922]

so this may be why my hair is falling out

Strong bump is strong. 11.11 bad girls take me to heaven

And why wouldn't your body know the difference?

Your body and mind are not two disconnected objects. If your mind knows it, your body knows it.

How are they the same? Humans are a social animal, its quite natural to expect that the reaction to sex will be vastly different from masturbation.

Is talking to an imaginary friend as therapeutic as talking to a group of close friends?
