Dear Pierce77,

Masturbating every day — or even more than once a day — is perfectly healthy and safe, regardless of whether you cum or not.

Some people masturbate every day or more than once a day, while others do it once a month, or once a year. Some people never masturbate at all. Every person is different.

Masturbation has no harmful physical or emotional effects. In fact, it has a number of physical and mental health benefits, including releasing stress and physical tension.

Hope this information helps!

Take care,
