I'm struggling with controlling my urges to masturbate whenever I watch porn. It's like as soon as I start watching, I just can't help myself and end up masturbating. It makes me feel so bad about myself, and I end up punishing myself by doing it even more. How can I break out of this cycle?

It's important to address any concerns about sexual performance with your healthcare provider, as factors like stress, anxiety, or physical health may play a role. Instead of relying on capsules, focusing on relaxation, communication with your partner, and possibly seeing a specialist for personalized advice can be more effective for improving stamina.

I'm curious about whether it's normal to masturbate regularly, like once a day or a few times a week. I've started doing it again after a few years of stopping, and while it doesn't mess with my daily routine or work, I do feel more relaxed afterward. Should I be worried about this habit or is it okay to continue as long as it's not affecting my life adversely?

doing it daily is not good . Do itonce in a week ,if you are habituated to it
