Is jacking off once in a week ok (normal)?

I started off just a few months back and used to do it almost every other day. Off late i. e. in the past 2 months i jacked off barely 6 times. Just wanted to know if jacking off once in a week is okay or not. Honestly i would want to cut down on that too but need your opinion. I usually jerk off watching p*rn. Also do suggest how you define normal frequency of masturbation and where do I fit into and if I need to cut down more. Thanks.

  • Masturbate as much as you feel like, it's not unhealthy by any means. It's really hard to do too much of it, and you'll definitely know when that happens. There isn't a normal frequency of masturbation since it's entirely subjective, some people do it once a week and some people do it six times a day.

    It really just comes down to how much you want to do it.

  • Its probably at the lower end of the range given yor age, you said you only started a few months back so did you start in your mid 20's? This would indicate very delayed puberty as most guys start before they are 15.

    • actually yes, it isn't delayed puberty :). I did start off pretty late because all these years I was scared of it to be honest. So it started off in a sky rocketing way lo, now I've cut down. Thanks. :)

  • Yeah that's perfectly fine. I'd say that anywhere up to twice a day is perfectly fine and healthy. Think about it. Having sex once a week or more is perfectly fine right? So why wouldn't masturbation be?

  • What do you mean if it's "okay"? How are WE supposed to know if YOU feel satisfied enough with jacking off once a week? Why are you asking other people something about your individual feelings/desires?

    • ... yea but too much of anything is always harmful. So just asked as to how much is too much :)

    • Didn't you ask if it's too little?

    • If you do it once a week and no other sexual activity either, then you have a rather low sex drive. But whether that's okay or not, is up to you to judge. Only YOU know if it feels like you're missing something.

  • lol you're fine. The only time it becomes a problem is if it's seriously impeding your life.. so you're good!

  • I'm just like that. Once or twice a week and only after watching P*rn. Totally fine. You don't have to do it everyday. Every person has his/her own sex drive.

  • Once to twice a week is ok.

  • twice a week is good..

  • Depends on the person. Too much masturbation is a bad thing (3 times a day, everyda, is a bad thing since the constant wear on your penis skin will tear and bleed) Your current rate is fine if you enjoy it. That's actually "average" if I am guesstimating correctly.

  • People here might say it is abnormal on the low side. About in line with me.
