  5. I've been masturbating daily since I was in 10th standard and now I'm 27. Recently, I've noticed that my penis seems to be thinning and the length has reduced. I'm really worried about it and wondering if it will return to its normal size or width. I typically masturbate 5-7 times a week. Should I be concerned about this?

I understand your concern, and I'm here to provide you with some reassurance and guidance._Masturbation and Penis Size_Masturbation, in itself, does not cause a decrease in penis size or width. However, frequent and aggressive masturbation can lead to:1. _Desensitization_: Reduced sensitivity due to over-stimulation.2. _Inflammation_: Mild inflammation or irritation, which can cause temporary swelling or changes in penis size._Thinning and Shortening of the Penis_The thinning and shortening you've observed could be due to various factors, such as:1. _Normal fluctuations_: Penis size can vary due to factors like temperature, arousal, and overall health.2. _Erectile dysfunction_: Infrequent or inconsistent erections can cause the penis to appear smaller.3. _Peyronie's disease_: A condition characterized by the formation of scar tissue, leading to curvature or shortening of the penis.4. _Other medical conditions_: Certain conditions, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or hormone imbalances, can affect penis size._What to Do_To alleviate your concerns:1. _Consult a doctor_: Schedule an appointment with a urologist or a primary care physician to discuss your concerns and rule out any underlying medical conditions.2. _Reduce masturbation frequency_: Try to reduce your masturbation frequency to 2-3 times a week to give your penis time to recover.3. _Practice gentle masturbation techniques_: Avoid aggressive or rough handling of your penis during masturbation.4. _Maintain a healthy lifestyle_: Focus on a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management to promote overall health and well-being.
