We all know you like to get busy with yourself, and there should be no shame in it. It is actually good for you!
Many doctors agree masturbation is part of a healthy sex life. In fact, many people believe that masturbation should become a regular part of your personal care routine, kind of like going to the gym.
Here are five of many incredible health benefits to masturbation.
1. It helps you last longer during sex
We have all heard the phrase ‘practice makes perfect’. It not only applies in the court but in bed as well. Sometimes, men don’t last long in bed simply because they haven’t had enough practice, either solo or with a partner. “Getting busy” with yourself regularly may help extend your sessions and give you more control. You can train yourself by timing how long it takes you to orgasm, if it usually takes you four minutes for you to finish solo, shoot for five next time. Most men can double the time within one month.
*Bro Tip: Masturbating an hour before a date will help you last longer and will give you more control.
2. It can help you lower your prostate cancer risk.
A NYU study from 2004 found that men who ejaculated more than 21 times a month reduced their risk of prostate cancer by somewhere around 33%, compared to guys who only ejaculated four to seven times in a month. Furthermore in 2016, researchers followed up with that same test group of guys from 04 and found that those who ejaculated 8 to 12 times per month reduced their prostate cancer risk by 10%.
3. It gives a mood boost
During masturbation, your body releases a slew of feel-good neurochemicals like dopamine and oxytocin that boost your satisfaction, lift your spirits, and activate the reward circuits in your brain.
“An orgasm is the biggest non-drug blast of dopamine available”
4. It makes you harder.
As you age, you naturally lose muscle tone, yup, even your buddy down there. Regular masturbation or sex works out your pelvic floor muscles and helps prevent incontinence and erectile dysfunction. Masturbation helps because the smooth muscle of your penis needs to be enriched with oxygen, which happens whenever there’s a rush of blood to your member.
For rock-solid results aim for three to five times a week.
5. It helps you fall asleep
There are many things you could do to improve the quality of your sleep, from hitting the gym to eating certain types of food. Masturbating while you’re in bed can also help: having an orgasm releases chemicals like, serotonin, prolactin, and oxytocin into the brain, all of which have been linked to feelings of relaxation and happiness.
