That is ridiculous. Masturbating does not cause you to age faster, nor does it spike your testosterone. There is no such "rule of thumb." Some people never do it in their lives, and some do it multiple times a day.
Masturbation is normal and healthy as long as you're comfortable with it. Any frequency is normal as long as it does not interfere with your ability to lead a full and happy life.

Limit yourself to no more then 1 time a week to jerkoff as more then 1 time you build more testosterone & age twice as fast. You dont wanna be a 20 yr old with a 40 yr olds body right? then rule of thumb is doit no more then once a week!

Dear Alex: When it comes to sex, there's no such thing as "too much" or "too little" for that matter. Just like anything else in life (watching TV, eating pizza, etc.), we determine what works best for us. If you're eating tons of pizza and don't like the way those extra pounds look on you, then you modify your pizza habit, right? Only YOU can decide what frequency works best for you.
Perhaps you're worried because you received some negative information about self-pleasuring, so here's some fun facts that may set your mind at ease: It’s the surest way to orgasm and the most effective way to learn about your sexuality. It’s also a very effective (and fun!) way for men to learn orgasmic control. Remember: if you feel you come too quickly, the surest way to slow down is to teach yourself a new pattern via self-pleasuring. It can also be a comfort when we're lonely, depressed, etc. Dr. J

I think the studies that talk about people living longer that have sex factors in lifestyle and not only the sex act itself. Although for men as they age sex is said to keep the prostate healthy. I wouldn't be worried about doing it too much. I would assume you are younger. During the beginning and even before I was married I needed sex at least once a day. I felt I couldn't sleep if I did not have it. As I've become middle aged it seems we have to almost schedule it on the calendar and it is an effort to get started. I think if your skin becomes raw you are certainly doing it too much if not and you function well in other areas in life doing it a lot is normal for certain age groups. Unfortunately the strong drive doesn't last a lifetime. enjoy it while you can!

so then why is it a proven fact that those adults who are healthy enough for sex often, are shown to live 10 years longer than those have sex? masturbation is sex, and although theres no emotional connection(unless mutual), you're still releasing all the good endorphins, hence an *ORGASM* versus just ejaculation!!!!!
idk bout u, i'm a woman and to me theres a HUGE diff bjust *C*mming* and an orgasm!
OP--masturbation is only an issue if it makes your partner uncomfy(hence a conversation), or it is at the point where it is all you do non-stop and it interferes with other things in your life!
happy *touching*!!!!!

It is like any other addiction. If it starts interfering with your life then it is too much.
