Is it possible to masturbate too much?

Yes. Kinda. The definition of “too much” is not a number but is a list of problematic behaviors associated with excessive masturbation. It’s actually been defined by respected a medical manual (The Merck Manual). In a nutshell, masturbating itself is healthy and natural. However, the following behaviors define a problem with self-pleasure:

  • Masturbating in public

  • Focusing so much on self-pleasure that it interferes with other forms of intimacy 

  • If it’s done so much that it causes distress
