How often are teenagers supposed to masturbate?

[T-Dawg]

I'm happy to say that masturbation is no longer painful . Well, sometimes I'll get temporary headaches, but nothing incredibly bad.

I do notice a scab or a scratch or scar or something on my penis, and another sore beginning to form, but they somehow don't seem to be painful (unless I try to touch the sore shortly after masturbating).

How many times per day is a teenager male supposed to masturbate? I've heard claims that most young men will masturate several times a day, and other people say that it's a bad idea to masturbate more than once every couple days.
I feel the urge to masturbate several times a day (I'd probably go four or five times a day if I wasn't afraid of hurting my penis), is it safe to do it whenever I feel like it, or should I try to restrict myself?
(On a related note, orgasm seems to last much longer and feels better when I haven't masturbated for more than a few hours, and masturbation somehow feels better when I give into the urge than when I do it willingly. Is this normal?)

PS: Please don't move this to the eros room, I can't see the stuff in there (they kicked me out a couple days after letting me in ). This isn't eros room material, I mean come on, it's not like I posted pictures .

TAL,

A lot of your posts seem to revolve around sex. I know you are young and young guys have high sex drives. This is natural, so don't worry about it.

But let me tell you if you are getting sores then you are doing it too much. Give the poor thing a break. There is no golden rule about how many times a guy should masturbate. But i do know the longer you go without an orgasm the better it will be. If i remember my science lessons it takes an average guy about a week to regenerate a full load of sperm so perhaps that should be a guide line for you. I know it could be hard to hold off for that long (im 27 and sometimes i get soooo horny i can't think)

And it should also be noted that there is nothing in the bible about not being allowed to masturbate (i went to a christian highschool and we use to have a pastor come along and talk to us about these types of things) Any christian who tells you it is wrong is just interpreting the bible to suit their beliefs.

And also some psychologists believe that excessive masturbation is a sign of depression.

You might want to think about getting a girlfriend.

Dude, angellous, first you make fun of my inability to take jokes in your first post on this thread, and then you make fun of me because I can't get a girlfriend?

Gee, isn't that a surprise...

Yeah, I know, I don't have any moral problems with masturbating.

Can you elaborate on this.

Can you elaborate on this.

The fact that it's a symptom of depression isn't surprising. Almost everything I do, from eating at irregular times of the day to wanting a girlfriend (and not being able to get one) and never being able to accomplish anything meaningful, is a symptom of depression .

Use a little willpower and it will pay off. Not only will you reduce soreness, but the intensity of the orgasm will increase.
And start using some lotion, it may take longer to reach orgasm if you are used to doing it dry, but, again, the orgasm will be more intense, plus you will reduce the risk of numb nerve endings from scarring.

And where would I get such lotion? And would people ask questions if they found it lying around?
And willpower? Is it possible to resist the urge to masturbate for more than a couple days? I feel the need every few hours, and after every class (boredom seems to make me want to masturbate)...

O, by no means.

Get involved in sports and find a chick.

Buy a guitar.

You need some hobbies, man. Other than the one attached to you.

 

[tumbleweed41]

Any hand lotion will do, and like Angellous said, get a hobby to occupy more of your time.

Based on my own experiences as a teenage male there doesn't seem to be too much problem with doing it often in terms of physical harm. Just don't keep going if you feel like your chaffing.

If you're getting some kind of scab or something I would hold off as much as you can until it heals. Maybe you need to use lubricant to prevent future problems. Lotion or lube would work, if you couldn't get those then I guess saliva would function.

To get the lotion or lube I would suggest a drugstore like a cvs, walgreens, etc.

You get headaches when you masturbate and now you have sores on your penis. That should be a clear indication that you're doing it too much. Like others have said, get a hobby. I personally do not believe masturbation by itself is unhealthy, but the preoccupation with it that you clearly have certainly is.

Take care. You've only got one.

Look at your bedroom floor. If there are more than 2 tissues or any paper towels lying around at any given time then everyone there already knows what you are doing.

I use cloth towels, and I have hiding spots for them (not great hiding spots, but you'd have to be looking for them to notice them).

Try using the socks you wore that day. They need to be washed anyway.

excessive masturbation helps improve the likelihood that you WON'T get colon cancer....

so carry on...

but if there are sore bits..stop..let the thing recover...

there is no upper amount...

despite what many will tell you..... women excessively masturbate too (some)

so its not bad....

just be CLEAN, wash often lol

and again as others have said, give yourself a break if there's a sore...

it largely depends on foreskins too.... I believe the likelihood of injury increases without one...
as it is a bit like having no eye lids...

I know someone that used cinnamon rolls....

 

[Sunstone]

A friend of mine masturbated 15 times in one 24 hour period when he was a teen. That's about the most I've heard of.

So sunstone, was that tean ok afterwards? Did he do that every day?
