Hanoi teen suffering masturbation addiction sent to hospital

A 17-year-old teenager with a masturbation addiction has been sent to Hanoi Medical University Hospital for examination after being found with lumpy semen, VN Express has reported.

The patient doesn’t have a partner and has not had sex, but is addicted to pornography and masturbates seven to eight times a week. Recently, the patient’s semen has bee found to have clumped into grain-like shapes.

Dr. Nguyen Hoai Bac, Head of Sexual Medicine Department, has said the patient’s genital organs are normal, adding “The patient’s condition is only due to excessive masturbation. After a few days, the patient’s semen will gradually liquefy.”

Dr. Nguyen warned that excessive masturbation can affect physical, mental and reproductive health. Too much sex also affects mental as well as sexual health. The effects vary very much from patient to patient. Some people can have delayed ejaculation or no ejaculation. Others are unable to have or maintain an erection during sex.
