Masturbation frequency and techniques me

Hello Dr Is it okay for 28 yr virgin male to masturbate daily once or twice by watching porn? Will this lead to ED in future? Or create any problems after marriage? Should lubricant be used while masturbating?

For a healthy 28-year-old virgin male, masturbation itself is normal and does not cause erectile dysfunction (ED), infertility, penile shrinkage, or sexual weakness. However, there are a few points to consider: Once a day is generally not harmful if it is not interfering with your work, sleep, exercise, or social life. Twice a day is also not necessarily harmful, provided you are comfortable, not developing soreness, and it is not becoming compulsive. The concern is not the frequency alone, but whether it is affecting your daily functioning or your future sexual relationships. Watching pornography occasionally is unlikely to cause permanent ED. However, frequent or prolonged pornography use may, in some men: Reduce arousal with a real-life partner. Create unrealistic expectations about sex. Make it harder to become aroused without pornography. Become a habit that is difficult to control. This is more of a behavioral issue than physical damage. Will it cause problems after marriage? Not necessarily. Most men who masturbate have completely normal married sexual lives. The risk arises if: Porn becomes your primary source of sexual stimulation. You find it difficult to become aroused without porn. Masturbation is much more frequent than partnered intimacy. It becomes compulsive. If you have no discomfort or skin irritation, a lubricant is not essential. You may consider a water-based lubricant if: You have dry skin. Masturbation causes friction or soreness. You have a tight foreskin (phimosis). Avoid products like soaps, toothpaste, or oils that can irritate the skin or damage condoms if used during intercourse.

Health Tips
Limit pornography if you notice you need increasingly stimulating content to become aroused. Exercise regularly, sleep well, and maintain a healthy weight—these are much more important for long-term erectile health than masturbation frequency. If you ever notice difficulty getting erections with a partner but not with pornography, reduce porn use for several weeks and see if things improve. Bottom line ✅ Masturbating once daily is generally safe. ✅ Even twice daily is not harmful if it doesn't become compulsive or interfere with your life. ✅ Masturbation does not cause permanent ED. ⚠️ Excessive dependence on pornography, rather than masturbation itself, is more likely to contribute to future sexual difficulties for some men. If you're concerned about your future sexual health, focusing on a healthy lifestyle and keeping pornography in moderation is likely to be more beneficial than worrying about masturbation frequency alone.

Dear Practo User, Masturbation is an act which is done till ejaculation. Like If you have food, it satifies your hunger, but do you keep on eating it or licking your fingers for hours? Same with masturbation. At ejaculation let go of your penis. Let it rest for a while. No one masturbates for hours. Its a BAD HABIT and this will make things worse for you. If you get erect again it is because you are not allowing the penis to rest. Erections happen due to increased blood flow in the penis. A man gets an erection at many occasions when blood flow to his penis increases, like at passing motions, at exercising, even during sleep 3-4 erections happen. So getting an erection due to a constant masturbation is NOT correct. it will make the penis store blood for a longer period and this may cause the blood to stagnate and lose oxygen. Thus depriving the tissues of your penis with oxygen. So once you masturbate and ejaculate. do not touch your penis. You yourself say it a bad habit, then why not break it.
