Excessive masturbation (4-5 times a day) can lead to mental fatigue, decreased concentration, and increased stress and anxiety. It can also cause feelings of guilt, shame, and low self-esteem. Desensitization to pleasure and potential erectile dysfunction are possible risks. Additionally, excessive masturbation can negatively impact relationships and daily life. It's essential to maintain a balanced and healthy lifestyle.

Question 4

I've been experiencing a rapid heartbeat lately, and I'm not sure if it's a side effect of the medication I'm on or if it's a heart issue. Could you give me some advice on this?

Accepted Answer

Rapid heart beat can be a concerning symptom. It is important to identify if it is a side effect of the tablets you are taking or a cardiac issue. To determine if it is a side effect of your medication, please provide me with the names of the tablets you are currently taking along with their dosages. If it is related to a cardiac problem, I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

Question 5

I've been on blood pressure meds for the past couple of months, but recently I've been experiencing a heavy feeling in my head and some dimness, especially at night. It's starting to worry me. Could you provide some guidance on what I should do next?

Accepted Answer

"Hello, based on your symptoms of feeling heavy-headed and dizzy, especially at night, it is possible that you may be experiencing side effects from your blood pressure medication. I would recommend consulting with your doctor to discuss these symptoms. They may consider adjusting your medication or trying a different one. In the meantime, make sure to monitor your blood pressure regularly. If you are taking amlodipine for your blood pressure, the dosage is typically 5-10 mg once daily."

Question 6

I've been noticing that my heart rate seems to spike all of a sudden whenever I get out of bed or even if I just switch sides while lying down. Is this something I should be worried about?

Accepted Answer

heart rate increases suddenly after changing positions may be due to a condition called postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). It is recommended to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan. In the meantime, you can try increasing your fluid and salt intake, wearing compression stockings, and doing exercises to improve blood flow such as leg raises and calf pumps. If symptoms persist, medications such as midodrine or fludrocortisone may be prescribed to help regulate your heart rate.
