How much masturbating is too much?
Physically, if your penis starts to hurt, you're masturbating too much. Or, if you're finding it takes you a lot longer to reach orgasm than usual, that's another sign. If you can't have orgasm during intercourse, that frequently means you masturbate too much. More practically, the question of how much is too much is determined by averages -- "normal" is a statistical term. As mentioned elsewhere on this site, eight times a week is the response heard most frequently as to how often young males (without partners) masturbate. It's not unusual to hear teenage boys (like those who've just discovered masturbation) doing it twice a day. It's probably safe to say that most people would agree that masturbating more than twice a day is not normal. For males older than 16, even 10 times a week is higher than normal. |  What's so special about eight times a week? A lot of males make a point of masturbating every day and then do it a second time once a week or so. Remember, normal doesn't necessarily mean healthy or unhealthy. It might not be unhealthy to masturbate more than twice a day, although it certainly isn't normal. If you masturbate once a day, you're normal in terms of the statistics available about masturbatory frequency. |
Another way of considering if you're masturbating too much is if the habit is keeping you from pursuing other sexual outlets. If you find you'd rather masturbate than have sex with a partner, that's a sign you're doing it too much. (Of course, some people have moral reservations about casual sex and it shouldn't be surprising that they masturbate more often than those who are also having sexual intercourse.)
