Question:
Q#1 Hello. I'm a 16 year old man who maybe more horny than most other guys, having the urge to have sex numerous times in the day. I masturbate about twice a day out of my sexual urge to get off. My question is, if I masturbate two to three times a day for a few years, will it increase my chances of needing Viagra at an earlier age than other men, opposed to holding back my urge to limit my masturbations to 3 times a week or something. I am planning on having a large family when I have settled down and married and don’t want my teenaged temptations preventing that. Thanks for your time.

Q#2 I am wondering about exactly how STD’s or Genital herpes can be spread. Almost a year ago now I noticed an Itchy red type rash on my inner thighs about 2 days after making out with a girl at a party. I also play football and sweet profusely and think it may just be a case jockage. Yes you may be wondering why it took almost a year to ask but the rash went away for a month or two after dosing it with clotrimozol every day for a few weeks and the rash just recently came back. I am wondering if it could possibly even be some sort of sexual infection caused by a kiss if that is possible. Thanks again and please write back.

Rest assuard, masturbation will not increase your need for Viagra or damage your ability to have a large family.

Smoking pot or cigerattes will, riding a bike daily could, wearing too tight underwear could-but masturbation isn't going to do a darn thing but get you off and create a smile on your face. FYI-most men your age masturbate as much as you are describing and more. They think about sex as much as you are describing. You do not have a higher sex drive than normal, people just aren't talking about how much they think about it.

As for the itchy thing, unless that girl performed oral sex on you (her mouth on your penis) you have jock itch. Go to the doctor and they will give you something to get rid of it. Put some baby powder on your scrotal sac in the morning and change your underwear after you work out. It'll prevent it from coming back in the future.

Happy Masturbating and thanks for writing in!
