is my son going to be fine?

[altec100]

My son told be few days ago when he was at the age of 14 that he masturbates 3-5 times per week,since he was at the age of 11, which to i thought could be before his puberty.Now,14,he said that he cut down to 1-2 times per week,is he going to be fine?i mean will he be able to have a proper puberty?

This can't possibly be for real.  No mother would actually post this.  My guess is that your are the 14 year old.  Masturbation cannot hurt you.  Can give you carpal tunnel though if you are at it constantly.

i'm his father,and he talked to me recently as he suspect that he masturbate caused him to be weak.(sorry for my poor english)

altec - are you saying there is something wrong with your son - he is either very weak (maybe mono or anemia?)  or are you saying his erections are very weak and he has a hard time maintaining them?

Is there some reason for concern for your son's health?

[altec100]

yes.He had check-ups for his heart as it will have a feeling of it "dropping",this is what he say.He fainted when i scolded him for some reason once,and nearly fainted another time during his rugby training in school.About few weeks later he is going to consult a heart specialist,is his heart problem caused by masturbation?

[altec100]

For the questionu ask concerning his erections,he never told me.

this cannot cause a heart condition.  However a heart condition can cause fatigue keep us sposted

altec,  what he has is called "syncope".  You can search this on the internet and find out more answers.

The worst fear,  with this,  is it's caused by a heart condition,  as you say.  But it often happens from lack of food,  or exhaustion,  or some other things.

My oldest son had an episode of fainting after lifting weights,  and like your son,  mine is also a Rugby player.  My son went through a number of tests on his heart,  and turned out fine.

I don't believe for one minute this is caused by masturbation,  so don't keep worrying about that.  

Chances are very good your son is fine and just needs to take it easy and not work out so hard.  

Best wishes - please post back when you find out the results.
