I have masturbated for the last 12 years .now I have issues with erectile dysfunction. Fatigue.loss of memory .pain on my joints and back pain.

Question

Hello- masturbation happens as a result of a deep seated craving, an unfulfilled desire that is not getting addressed. When the release happens, a person feels relaxed with a sense of temporary fulfillment. But the after effects are a feeling of being wasted, low energy levels, backaches, feeling gassy, bloatedness, lack of appetite, dry skin, pimples, running nose, cough and colds, allergic colds, skin lacking lustre, joint pains and tightness, dark circles under the skin, bad posture (one who assumes a stoop), low libido, hair fall, a deeper sexual urge that makes a person feel guilty (as one starts to rely on sex and sexuality all the time), irritable bowels, constipation, emotional lows, feeling like crying, high sense of guilt etc. Consult an ayurveda specialist for proper guidance.

There are many myths about masturbation. Even though many of these have been debunked several times, they seem to resurface time and time again. Most claims about masturbation are not backed up by science. There is often no scientific evidence to show that masturbation causes any of the adverse effects suggested. Masturbation will not cause: blindness hairy palms impotence later in life erectile dysfunction penis shrinkage penis curvature low sperm count infertility mental illness physical weakness some couples worry that their relationship must be unsatisfying if either one of them masturbates; this, too, is a myth. Do kegel exercises-- firstly, find the pelvic floor muscles. You can achieve this by stopping mid-stream two or three times the next time you urinate. The muscles you can feel working during this process are the pelvic floor muscles, and they will be the focus of kegel exercises. One kegel exercise consists of tightening and holding these muscles for 5 seconds and then releasing them. Try to do between 10 and 20 repetitions each day. This may not be possible when you first start doing the exercises. However, they should become easier over time. You should be able to notice an improvement after 6 weeks. Make sure you are breathing naturally throughout this process and avoid pushing down as if you are forcing urination. Instead, bring the muscles together in a squeezing motion.
