Worried about the impact of your once-weekly masturbation habit? Relax, chances are you're perfectly fine. The widespread belief that masturbation is harmful is largely based on outdated myths. In reality, masturbating once a week is generally considered a healthy and normal part of male sexuality.
While excessive masturbation *can* lead to issues like chafing, decreased sensitivity, or preoccupation with the act, these scenarios are unlikely with a once-weekly frequency. In fact, regular ejaculation, including through masturbation, can have potential benefits such as prostate health. Some studies suggest it may even improve sleep quality and relieve stress.
Ultimately, listening to your body is key. If you experience any discomfort, guilt, or negative impact on your relationships or daily life related to your masturbation habits, it may be worth reevaluating. Otherwise, enjoying it in moderation is generally harmless and perfectly acceptable.
