Masturbation is normal it doesn't cause physical problems or sexual problems. Also do not give any importance to advertisement that mention that masturbation cause health problems or destroys life, and masturbation does not require any treatment.
Masturbation is a maintenance procedure. It keeps penis well and regular turnover of fresh semen/sperm.
If you want to reduce it, you should involve yourself in studies, games and hobbies. Also try not to remain alone most of time and avoid por...more

Hello! I have been suffering from severe major depression and anxiety since 3 years. I changed many doctors and medicines but to no avail. The doctor I am seeing currently diagnosed me with treatment resistant depression and bipolar effective disorder a year ago, even though I do not experience the manic highs or even hypomania. He put me through ect 22 times which only marginally improved my situation, before ect I used to cry and yell all day. I have extreme fatigue, low motivation, anger irritation, fear, loss of appetite, weight gain due to medications, tremors, loss of confidence, crying spells, blurred vision and extreme weakness due to depression. I am terrified of going outside and blurred vision adds to the fear. Doctors have tried almost all medications: venlafaxine, escitalopram, olanzapine, quetiapine, lithium, valproic acid, paroxetine, clomipramine, and anxiety meds like xanax, rivotril, amylene etc. Right now doctor has put me on clonazepam and prothiaden since 3 weeks, but I have seen no improvement. I took lithium and valproic acid for about 8 months and they only added to my fatigue and weight gain so doctor stopped them. I really need help in terms of medication as I am still hoping there might be one which could take me out of this extreme pain. I am terrified that if I do not get the right help or if there is not a cure, I will have to live like this for my entire life, in bed and barely able to think, eat, move or understand anything. I am 36 years of age, female and from pakistan. I have heard that indian doctors are good. Please help me out of this and suggest any medication and save my life. Thanking you!

Dear Sara,
Your doctor at Pakistan is equally good and she/he has been trying good treatments like antidepressants, mood stabilisers and ECT. Please continue with her/him. Telemedicine in India has jurisdiction in the same country only. It is difficult for you to undergo treatment in India because certain basic tablets only can be prescribed through telemedicine. Intractable depression needs lot of experimental tablets as add on.

Dear doctor ,My son aged 24 is showing peculiar behaviour. 1}He is having curly hair on his head which he dislikes most. He wants it to be straight. So frequent he visit to Salon for hair straightening even fourrdays apart. By using excessive chemical his hair were broken and damaged. Then he started to make it straight by putting any oil whatever oil is found in the household. A full 250ltr bottle oil he pours on his head. And keep remain luke that. When he does not find oil he started putting water again and again at least 20 times at a stretch. He will go to bathroom put water one mug and comeback count and again he will go to bathroom for watering. After that he started sweeping floor and collect all. Dust rubbish put it on his head. On wet head it will stick. Then he starts combing again again .This continuous process will make his hair somewhat straight. We tried to convince him about the bad effect of floor dust but he starts requesting only once he will give. His face becomes so. Sad if we are strict. He starts. Begging us for putting dust on his head. I asked him why are you doing this? He answers this action will make him. Satisfied.Its. His strong desire he cannot control over. He feels tense if he can not do this. He feels in his inside always" something is kept pending .Some task is pending. So he can not even sleep. He has to put floor dust at least five times. Then he keeps hair combed and remain like this for hours till morning. After getting up from bed he will do it again at first then brushing teeth. It makes us worried. This is happening since six months. When we go for a tour this action is stooped in new place except putting water. i in winter night too .If we forbids or prevents him he argue" I am not disturbing you. Why will you prevent me. From doing my job? If he does not perform this watering and putting dust he feels tension and tell us" some thing is disturbing his mind pricking makes him. Crazy for doing this. Some task is. Unfulfilled" Apart from this he has special choice to select his bed. He always keep changing his bed place but never his pillow. He will stick to his particular pillow. Next he keeps all clothes of his mother under his pillow. On question he replies "my mothers hair is straight so if I am in touch with mothers clothes her gene will enter in to me to make my hair straight. He keeps 12combs with him and carry on combing.
