I'm just kind of curious, how often is it considered safe to masturbate in a week? Like, I dont want to overdo it or harm myself in any way. Is there such thing as a limit I should be aware of? Hope you can help clarify this for me.

There is no strict "limit" for masturbation; it varies from person to person. Generally, it is safe if it doesn't interfere with your daily life, relationships, or responsibilities. Moderation is key, and if you feel any physical discomfort or emotional distress, its worth discussing with a doctor.

I'm a 33-year-old married woman with a kid and have been dealing with recurrent UTIs once or twice a year. There's a small hole in my vagina since birth that lets feces pass, which my urologist says is an RVF. I never had UTIs before marriage, but now they keep coming back. Which medical department should I consult for RVF? Is surgery the only option, and what's the success rate since I've heard it can come back even after surgery?

I've noticed this weird yellowish stuff coming from my penis over the past two days, and it really burns when I pee. I've been masturbating a lot, like every day for a week. What's going on? Should I be worried?

The symptoms you're experiencing yellow discharge and burning sensation while urinating could indicate urethritis, a urinary tract infection, or even an STI. It's important to consult a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment. In the meantime, avoid activities that could irritate the area further and ensure proper hygiene.
