Clearer skin, better concentration, improved sex appeal and enhanced control could all be within a man's grasp, as soon as he lets go of his penis. This is the claim of so-called "anti-fap" websites, which argue that frequent bouts of masturbation zap a man's essence and leave him vulnerable to all sorts of mental and physical problems. Parsing the language and getting at the truth can be tough, especially for men who are desperate for some kind of penis health solution, but thankfully, the experts have weighed in on the topic, and their advice might help men to make a good decision about their private habits. Understanding the Claims Concerns about overindulgence in masturbation aren't new. In fact, men have long been told that their habits can cause all sorts of serious problems, including blindness and hairy palms. But the link between mental health and masturbation has been, up to this point, uncharted territory. Some of this new concern might be in response to the explosion of pornography that's available to the modern man. In the past, men had to reach a certain age before they could waltz into a store and buy pictures of a woman in varying states of undress. Now, men with access to a computer can find all sorts of pornography for free, and there's so much available that they might never see the same shot twice. For some men, this bounty results in hours spent alone, in private consultation with the privates. However, it is actually possible that these four common moves may be detrimental to penis health, especially if they are practiced a little too often: 1. Grasp the member a little too tightly 2. Neglect to apply lubricant 3. Focus on fast movements 4. Move about while masturbating These actions could damage penis skin, or they could result in intimate injuries that only surgery could fix. Men who habitually behave in this way might very well need to take a break from fapping. Fapping Fallacies There's no evidence that suggests, however, that masturbation is an act that can inherently hurt a man or damage his penis health. In fact, urologists suggest that frequent ejaculations are good for the health of the penis, as these acts just keep fluid moving through the body. The act of masturbation can also keep the muscles of the pelvis strong and supple. These are the muscles that have a key role to play in urination, so a man that gets busy might be less likely to lose control of his bladder later in life. If "use it or lose it" applies to the penis, masturbation could be a man's secret weapon. Similarly, experts suggest that frequent erections are healthy for the tissues that line the penis. Each time a man reaches hardness, he stretches those tissues to their capacity, ensuring that they retain their flexibility. Masturbation allows that stretching to take place, and it feels pretty darn good, too. Better Options Men who want to improve their penis health might not need to amend their masturbation habits at all, as long as they're touching their bodies in a way that's safe and comfortable. As long as they're not causing pain in the moment, or residual soreness in the days that follow, they can fap to their heart's delight. But men with penis health concerns should consider adding a penis health creme (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil) to the mix. These products contain vitamins that are essential to the health of the nerves that line the penis, and they provide moisture that can keep skin both soft and stretchy. Twice-daily application of a product like this can support the cellular health of the penis, which might be a vital step on the road to wellness.
