In summary, masturbation is a normal and healthy sexual behavior that does not have any negative impact on physical health. It can have several benefits, including reducing stress, improving sleep, and releasing tension in the body. There is no evidence to suggest that moderate or frequent masturbation can lead to physical health problems, but excessive masturbation can cause discomfort or irritation in the genital area. Masturbation can also have a positive impact on mental health by improving mood, reducing stress and anxiety, and promoting relaxation. However, having a negative attitude towards masturbation can have a negative impact on mental health. Masturbation does not affect sexual performance or desire, and for some individuals, it can even improve sexual functioning. The potential risks associated with masturbation are low, but it is important
