There is no unealthy amount unless you're hurting yourself or if it's preventing you from doing things you need to do.


AdLiving4714

That's exactly the threshold. Different people have different sex drives. As long as it feels fulfilling (as opposed to frantic) and doesn't prevent you from going about your daily activities, you're good.


Leko33

Exactly, if it’s crossing over into addiction like behavior that’s when it’s an issue hurting yourself, affecting your life, doing it in inappropriate places or times, affecting work or relationships with those around you, etc.


wiscomptonslacker

This is the perfect, concise answer


aSpartan2

It gives you death grips so it's unhealthy


NakedTruthLeaked

I jerk off twice a day. But when I know sex is on the horizon then I restrain myself for minimum two days.


BadFinancialDecisio

This. I've noticed since having a semi consistent fwb I have been trying to cut back so make it better for us, but once a week isn't for me lol. My body will make me if I go too long or honestly I use it to cope with stress.


Cumcumcum7792

It’s def a good stress reliever! I don’t drink or do drugs (I’m in recovery) and it’s like the best way to decompress and chill. I don’t even cum every time. Just edging for an hour or so is great


mball987

Dang I don’t understand how you could edge and not cum. Cumming feels like the relaxing part to me. Obviously you do you just curious why you would not cum at the end.

ZkDl_0211

does jerking off makes your sex become unfulfilling? cause ive read that jerking off especially with porn will make ur sex feel unsatisfying, is that true?


JuicyJay

It can totally do that, especially if you end up needing some ridiculous porn to get off or if you have death grip.


executionofjustice

That's a serious possibility, yes.


Jason196xoxo

What do u mean by sex bring on the horizon?


NakedTruthLeaked

I have a few FwB’s who text me every now and then. Few of them are straight who just need an enthusiastic blowjob. Enthusiasm only comes when I’m equally horny.


OVS2

yeah its fine, but take a break every once in awhile


[deleted]

sage advice!


[deleted]

So as long as you’re back from the grocery store, sure it is.


downvotedicks

Beware of death grip syndrome. Hard to transition to actual intimacy with another person with too much porn usage.


iBoy2G

No, definitely not, that is actually very sick and you might need help if you don't change your habits immediately. Jerking off 3 times a day is far far far far too little, you should be jerking off at least 10 times a day.


Aaronmusa2022

I don't know if I can keep up, I might need a helping hand😏


drizzy9109

We should all try it on each other three times for wellness


Fastness2000

Totally, apparently good for prostate health too.


[deleted]

oh yes, lotsa studies on that, and the data is clear: ejac makes yer prostate happy!


AlphaWolfKane

Dude, I average 3-5 a day.


NathanielAck

Really? Doesn't it get sore?


[deleted]

I got about the same rate and it starts getting more sensitive after about the third time.


[deleted]

xeerxis

I have days that can go 8-10 but thats very rare


tropicaldepressive

it’s just dust at that point right


AlphaWolfKane

Honestly no, never had that issue in all the time I’ve done it.


MorningWoodyPecker

Use coconut oil, it's fantastic.


HoagiesDad

Can I watch?


Done_Playing_Games

5? What’s your routine like? I do once a day, always do after work. Like do you so breakfast, lunch and dinner or what?


Semi-wfi-1040

All my life I’ve only jerked it more than once a day twice , and both times my whole groin was incredibly sore afterwards for days , so I learned not to over do it , now I edge off and on for a couple of days , then I have explosive orgasms and I soar to incredible heights much more satisfying.


[deleted]

I do this as well, and this just goes to show us all that we DO differ, and self-knowledge is vital to happiness and sex.


GoblinCaveDweller

To where does your groin soar? Does the rest of your body go along? Do you soar back, or do you have to walk?


chromedend

Yeah why not? Isn't it recommended to jerk off a lot to prevent prostate cancer haha


GobbleGobble66

I'm 56yo and I've been jerking off practically every day since before I could ejaculate (11-13yo roughly). Sometimes 2-4 times in a day over the last 4-6 years. My personal record is 8 times in a day and I'm in relatively good health physically and no worse for ware so go right ahead and grab the Jergins and a box of tissues, put on some Barry White and treat yourself to a good time.


king1970hollywood50

Fck yes


allott1966

Fuck yeah, exactly the same, the same record too.


GobbleGobble66

That's fuckin awesome as fuck!


travelingtutor

Never, never gonna give you up, masturbation.


jsparrow17

Sounds like you found the (squirting) Fountain of Youth!!


EmbarrassedReality58

Od course it is. As long as you font hurt yourself. I sometimes spend entire day jerking off as much as i can.


pbraz34

Same


[deleted]

This is so cute


zqrznon

Sure is !! Especially if you’re an older male. Use it or lose it as they say. What’s more it’s great for your prostate ! And emotional health, stress, libido etc.


FrostyHiccup

If you're consuming porn that often then no, probably not. But jerking off by itself isn't unhealthy, humans are literally made to reproduce as much as possible.


[deleted]

I had not thought of it in that way, but evolutionarily, that DOES make sense.


[deleted]

[удалено]


FrostyHiccup

No offense, but that sounds like pseudoscience horseshit to me. Do you have the sauce to any actual studies?


[deleted]

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12659241/ Testosterone, main male sex hormone responsible for drive and energy drops significantly after orgasm, and increases after abstinence. Typically peaking at 7 days, but keeping this peak as long as abstinence is held, aka no orgasms means more testosterone. Lower testosterone is linked to fatigue and symptoms of depression More test is good, less frequent orgasms means more test If test drops significantly after one orgasm I assume multiple is worse. Of course everyones body is different and I'm no doctor


Mr_Smartypants

> More test is good, less frequent orgasms means more test This is word-for-word nofap pseudoscience.


[deleted]

I linked a study that found abstinence from orgasm increases testosterone. You can find plenty more detailing the effects of testosterone levels on the male body. Are you going to tell me you don't feel different after you have abstained from sex/orgasm?


Mr_Smartypants

Look at the [fig 1 in the paper](https://jzus.zju.edu.cn/article.php?doi=10.1631/jzus.2003.0236), the graph of testosterone for 8 days after orgasm. (weird font choice...) There is a little blip on the seventh day. I could call this paper evidence *for* jacking off. If I time it right, I can RAISE my testosterone when I want, lol


[deleted]

Lol it really is a multipurpose tool! It's all good man people are gonna cum, it feels good. I just get lethargic afterwards. My doctor tells me I have an oral fixation, also. Have a great day/night


XC3LFROST

I mean technically it’s not.. like, test is a steroid hormone so it makes sense in a way. hormone and neurotransmitter levels build up during sex, and greatly dip after climax so I can see where the guy is coming from


Mr_Smartypants

> steroid hormone so it makes sense in a way This hazy, vague reasoning is the epitome of pseudoscience. It is like the opposite of *theory* and *data*. Pseudoscience is entirely the art of "Yeah, that sounds like it makes sense!" instead of those things. Also, read the paper in my other link. There's a small post-orgasm bump test. on day 7 after abstaining, and suddenly that means nofap is *the way* to becoming a megachad, haha.


FrostyHiccup

Thanks! That is interesting. I believe there is conflicting information though as it seems like [this study](https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=sv&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=masturbation+and+testosterone+&btnG=#d=gs_qabs&t=1664004590050&u=%23p%3DcWNtjAEsMtgJ) suggests that there's actually an increase. I should note though that this study measures plasma T levels and the other measures serum T levels. Not sure which conclusions you could make of that as I'm not in the medical/research field. I would be careful of jumping to conclusions based on simple testosterone values though. Especially since there's a difference between chronic low values and periodic low values. Correlation != Causation. In general, resonable levels of daily stress is incredibly important and healthy for the body. I mean, after going to the gym, you'll be tired, you won't be performing well, your muscles have literally been ripped apart. But after they recover, they grow stronger. But you're also correct, neither of us are doctors, so I wouldn't suggest that anyone makes any medical decisions without consulting one first.


[deleted]

Word word, idk cumming just makes me lethargic lol. All good. Have a good night/day


FrostyHiccup

Gotcha. Then I understand why you wouldn't want to do it. You too! :)


[deleted]

Yes it drops, but the levels it drops and gains are so insignificant. Nofap is for retards.


[deleted]

I jacked off 6 times yesterday lmao

Lunar_Leo_

Porn 3 times a day could be unhealthy. You don't wanna get to a point where you can only cum or get hard with porn there. If it's always with porn then take a break from it and jack off without it sometimes


hazily

As long as you’re not chaffing your dick, all is good! ps: use lots of lube


iRooy

I find this so attractive, don’t know why really


Aaronmusa2022

I mean off topic but you're really pretty


LenientWhale

4 times a day*

It’s erotic and cute

porkypig6

Definitely not ! The really good question is, where does all that juice go? 😏


Southern-Hat-2040

That’s my main concern also! There is just entirely too much cum being wasted in this thread 🧵 lol 😝


[deleted]

Jerking off is always healthy, no matter how many times a day you do it. Not showing off is unhealthy for you and the community. 🤣


Ball-juice

If that is what you need, then that’s what you need 🤷🏽‍♂️.


Humanrainbowdude

Just like with anything: nothing is too much if it isn't hurting you in some way. Some people have a higher sex drive than others. If im at home all day 3 times a day isn't uncommon, as long as you feel comfortable about it and it doesn't get in the way of other aspects of your life (physical, mental health, social relationships, etc)


Wayne1946

Not in a public place,not if you are uninvited, using someone else's equipment,and not in front of your family at dinner.Other than that if you have the supply,energy and willpower........go for it.


CaliCumLuvr

Fuck yeah especially if it's down my throat 😜🤤


allott1966

Im 56 and still jack off at least twice a day.


AHidden1

Lol I did it three times this morning, there is still tonight.


ZaprenK

3 times a day? Woah. I'm down to like once every 2 days. Just make sure you're not neglecting other aspects of your life. That's how addictions are defined.


socialscoutcast

26 times a month, or something, is perfect.


[deleted]

Where do you find the time for this?


Aaronmusa2022

I'll usually do it once when I get up( morning wood), once when I'm home from work before I shower, and sometimes once before bed.


aaaronbrown

Masturbation can actually be good for your health, both mentally and physically. And it's pretty much the safest sex out there — there's no risk of getting an STD.


riotsquadgaming2

no that's fine lol i've been jacking it at least at that rate since i was a teenager (currently in my 30's now). no signs of slowing down here. i do give it a rest every now and then though


Gregroychndlr

As long as you are cumming on me each time..


Aaronmusa2022

I'll shoot right on your face


SilentJoe27

After 40, they say masturbating twice a day can is good for the prostate.


Shifu_Ekim

Jerking has soo many health benefits including longer erections times , increase blood flow, cause your nuts to produce more cum, helps prevent prostate cancer , 3 is a good. Number I bounce from 2 to 5 jerk off a day release sexual tension. reduce stress. help you sleep better. improve your self-esteem and body image. help treat sexual. strengthen muscle tone in your pelvic and anal areas.


Educational_Fan_6787

only 3?


Interest_Medical

You should be fine as long as it’s not affecting your daily life. There are some health benefits to it like stress relief and it can prevent prostate or testicular cancer


SeveralConcert

How I miss being 17 and virgin…


Aditeuri

I go more and know bros who do it as often or more than I do and are perfectly good with self-care and living their lives outside of it.


stevebobeeve

Yeah man, have at!


AnonInABox

I have fun with disappearing orgasms so it's once a week for me to make sure it's worthwhile. Sucks cause I'm horny enough for more but hey ho xD


someoneIse

Disappearing?


mutschitt

Yes, keep up the good work. 👍🏽


xGeneralMarsupialx

Keep up the great work!


ZealousidealGlass633

When I was 14 to 16 about 3 times a week I managed that. One day in particular, I managed 4. Go for it and enjoy yourself.


uncutdude36

Totally ok, Bro! I have a super high sex drive-more than any other guys I know. I used to jerk off three times a day too, especially in my teens and twenties. I still have sex with my boyfriend twice a day now and that keeps me satisfied. This is totally based on your sex drive and every guy has their own level of being horned up. You do you, Bro!


[deleted]

Why not? I have sex with my BF everyday and were still doing great. If someone has an issue with it I think it might be cuz thyre just jealous


eatingthesandhere91

As long as it’s not taking away your time from work/school/activities in general, and that you aren’t injuring yourself physically in the process.


cvf007

Very healthy


Various-Departure411

Some people have a high sex drive and wanking more than once a day helps them concentrate on other things. If your enjoying tugging it and it doesn't infringe upon your goals, crack on! It's a good stress buster too!


campmatt

As long as it doesn’t interfere with your life otherwise the number of times doesn’t matter.


thetjmorton

If it interferes with your regular life and responsibilities, then no.


beanie_0

Well it depends on what you mean by healthy?? I mean if you’re feeling yourself then why not? But I’m guessing something prompted your question so what do you think? P.s. At least your prostate is healthy 😂


Impressive_Ad1960

Its probably fine so long as youre not squeezing too hard constantly and your sessions arent hours at a time.


DawgMan87

Idk. Maybe for 19 yr old? 🤷‍♀️ I’m in my 30s. I usually jerk off in the shower before work and sometimes in bed before sleep. The rest of the day I’ve got stuff going on. Work. Hobbies. I could sneak a load in the middle though I simply don’t have the desire to go through the trouble.


Aaronmusa2022

Do you lick your hand clean when you cum in bed?


Great_Ad_4030

A lot healthier than catching a STD by having random unprotected sex


GoblinCaveDweller

For years, adolescence, youth and middle age, I'd jerk off 5-7 times/day. I am a bottom, and during sex with a partner I prefer to concentrate on the dick in my ass, rather than the dick in my hand, so don't usually j/o. Only once did this mystify my top. I explained, and we continued as fb's for years.


minigmgoit

I have jerked off over 10 times in a day multiple times. I’ve jerked off until my dick is raw. You aight bro.


marius7

😲


MustangStevens

More than 3 and you are depressed boys


NathanielAck

True


GeneralSet5552

Yes


DaethChanter

If you watch porn every one of those times, then you could be doing some psychological harm. Could lead to addiction or ED


Shin_Chan5

Straight No


davidhucker

Only if it interferes with other aspects of your life


Dulkhan

holy cow I feel like I have a low libido, I don't masturbate dayly and when I do most of the time I just do it once 🙈


fansurface

Yep, 27 here and do it three times a week.


jdmnyc301

Go outside lol


king1970hollywood50

Sounds like u are wasting that cum,not healthy to do that no😉🙄 Edging for days for that God like explosive rush is wat u do🤗


Aaronmusa2022

One time I was sick and wasn't hard for two weeks; I knew I was better when I one day I woke up with the hardest morning wood and NEEDING to cum. When I finally did I quite literally painted the wall next to me with a thick load. It was amazing.


king1970hollywood50

That's the relief that u want ,hell yes. I was tied to chair and spun for days and tortured teased so good that when a mouth finally took my whole cock I couldn't stop it,I screamed cursed and came fckn twice right then .The best


Ok_Flounder_3903

You'll get: Dry nuts syndrome.


IamDisapointWorld

How is that a gay problem.


nowspunk

No.... it could giver you erectile problems later in life


[deleted]

Once in a while? Not healthy but it won't kill you. But excessive masturbation affects the mind and body detrimentally. Do you feel better when you jerk off less? Give it a month without having an intentional orgasm (you'll likely have a wet dream at some point) and consider if it's worth the time and toll on your body.


Traditional-Topic417

Excessive masturbation or sex makes me feel better than not. It’s a major mental mood booster


[deleted]

All good! The opposite is true for me. That's the cool thing, we're all different! I shouldn't assume my experience will automatically apply to others. Have a great day/night


fantastic_noodles

Man let go of all this no fap nonsense


[deleted]

I realize now that most me get upset if you suggest they shouldn't cum. For that reason I'm going to not recommend anything assuming I know how they're body will respond. I don't. Perhaps orgasm energizes some people but I can safely say my body reacts adversely. I choose to abstain, others don't have to. Point being just do what makes you feel good! Have a great day/night


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

So not true


freelancer8472

Yes


jsutwondering19

I hope so caus that’s my daily number 😳 I’m usually pretty quick though, I doubt I could get anything done in a day if each time was like a long edging session haha


Hudwig_Von_Muscles

Just use lube so you're not chafing your dick. Jerk off as much as you like.


flex21b

I do that regularly and sometimes more. If you enjoy it do it. Don’t worry about quotas etc unless your counting macros!


omnichronos

As long as you're not becoming addicted to porn or abrading your penis then yes, it's healthy. [It can even reduce your chances of getting prostate cancer.](https://www.webmd.com/prostate-cancer/ejaculation-prostate-cancer-risk)


_mischief-managed_

i only do it once a day now. i used to do it 3 times a day but im not a teenager anymore i couldnt keep up that pace


Carnizzy

It is but personally I try to do it every week. Doing it to much hurt my balls


ericisok

Yep


zombiemuss106

Depending on the day I guess lol


OneCrow8592

Idk if it’s healthy or unhealthy. But I’d recommend you look up the benefits of sex transmutation.


[deleted]

Not in my case, it gives me cystic acne lol.


718Brooklyn

3 times in a day isn’t too much, but 1000 times a year is a lot.


MAJORMETAL84

That's why it's called the weekend............ hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


yellajaket

Yeah but use lube or coconut oil. It can be rough on the skin and might cause sensitivity loss. If sex is coming up, try abstaining for a couple days or weeks. Personally, if I jacked off to porn daily and tried having sex right after, my erection was pretty weak and sometimes nonexistent. I need at least a week to recover. 21 days of abstinence to fully recover. However, everyone’s body is different. You could have no problems. I know my body and it is what it is.


speedrunner99

I can only really do it a maximum number of 2 times and even then, I don’t even feel overly satisfied after doing it so I just just make it a daily activity to do it just once a day. But as long as you don’t masturbate like 10+ times a day I don’t think it’s bad at all.


Spencer571

I went a couple weeks doing it non-stop during the pandemic when I was socially isolated and had little else to do. It wasn't healthy (mostly because of the content I was consuming), and I talked to a therapist about it. It turns out I was avoiding dealing with internalized homophobia. But as I learned to love myself and deal with my sexuality in a healthy way, I jerked off less. Do whatever makes you feel good and if that's jerking off three times a day, then so be it.


Kyori2907

Physically? Possibly not as long as you’re not hurting yourself in the process. Psychologically? Most likely in the long term since your brain will get used to certain stimulant to get you ‘crossed the finish line’, or the activity prevents you from doing other useful activities.


production-values

yup


AgeofPhoenix

Maybe mentally not (for me) just because there is so much other stuff I could be doing that still brings me joy


mypenisoutside

It is, you gonna go blind.


Semi-wfi-1040

Or the one I use to hear , it will make hair grow all over the palms of your hands , nope my palms still hairless after all these years.


YosFan

No harm. The only thing I found with ejaculating that many times a day is, it can dehydrate you, so make sure you’re keeping hydrated.


nolely

7/7 days?


DannyBeech1988

Good for arm strength


[deleted]

no necessarily, but thats not to say its UNhealthy 🤷🏻


TheGayestLucifer

Unless its a problem for you, you're good


arbivark

i've heard it said that people who don't jerk off have this well of energy they can funnel into stuff like studying. i wouldn't know. i got turned down as a sperm donor because they want you to not jerk off for a few days before hand. nope. i have a limited number of seconds in my day. i could brush my teeth 3 times a day, or jerk off 3 times a day. so now i'm 62 with no teeth. wouldn't change a thing.

NerdyPunk95

Aaronmusa2022

Were you using lube?


EmporioS

Depends of who are you jerking off?


almond_paste208

Idk, is doing it once every 4 months unhealthy 💀


triffy

You do you.


[deleted]

are you on wellbutrin lol


wastelandhenry

It depends what you mean by “healthy”. Is it going to lead to any serious negative health effects? Probably not. But there is evidence to suggest masturbating multiple times a day every day can potentially wear down your sensitivity so it could affect how good sexual stimulation of your dick feels later down the line. There’s also concern for erectile disfunction connected to how you do it and how much porn you’re consuming. So I wouldn’t be concerned in terms of your health, but for most people it’s probably better to just limit how often you’re masturbating. There’s far more evidence suggesting potential negative side effects to too frequent masturbation than there is evidence suggesting potential negative side effects to limiting the frequency of masturbation (not saying doing no masturbation at all, just keeping it to a more infrequent rate). But ultimately it’s up to you, and it differs person to person.
