I'm really into fitness and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular gym workouts and a balanced diet. But I'm kind of worried about something that I haven't found a clear answer for. Does masturbation more than twice a week have any negative effects on my health? And if I do it on consecutive days, is that harmful in any way? Just trying to understand if it's affecting my fitness journey or overall health in any way.

I'm 25 and I've been masturbating once a day. I'm starting to worry if this habit is draining my energy. I'm single now, but I'm concerned about how this might affect my sex life when I get married. Could it have any impact on my sexual health in the future?

Masturbation is a natural and common activity, and as long as it's not interfering with your daily life or relationships, it shouldn't negatively impact your sexual health or future marriage. If you're concerned, it's always good to talk to a healthcare provider for personalized guidance.

I noticed a lump in my left testicle and after looking it up online I think it might be varicocele It doesn't hurt but feels uncomfortable Do I really need surgery for this and if so how long can I wait before getting it treated Im 22 and a bit worried about what to do next

Any time you find a lump in your testicle or scrotum, you should have it checked by your doctor as soon as possible. However, if the lump you're feeling is in fact a varicocele, it likely won't cause pain. While varicocele pain is not common, it can occur, especially as the varicocele becomes larger.
