Is there any harm in masturbating once a month? Is the penis going to shrink due to inactivity?

Abstinence Reduces Sperm Quality
Abstinence longer than two days reduces sperm quality in men having low fertility. In a study presented on June 30th at the European Fertility Conference, Israeli scientists provided evidence that men with low sperm counts can significantly reduce sperm quality by abstaning from sex and masturbation for longer than a two days. They found that the performance for normal men without any fertility problems sperm quality remained the same whether they abstained from sex for one, two or 10 days before providing a sample. The finding challenges the World Health Organization recommendation that men seeking fertility treatment refrain from sex for between two and 7 days before providing a sample for analysis. The volume of semen increased, as expected after prolonged abstinence, but in men with low sperm counts the quality got worse with the length of time of abstinence. The number and proportion of active sperm fell significantly from day two onwards, reaching a low at day six and remaining low and the percentage of malformed sperm increased after two days of abstinence. In normal men, the percentage of malformed sperm increased after 11 days. The best strategy for couples with no fertility problems who are trying to have a baby is to have sex once every day around the time of ovulation.

I read this somewhere else previously, however this is the only place I could find right now when googling for it

I dont know whether not using your penis at all will shrink your penis, but if youre still doing PE then the odds are that it wont

The problem is that In Men's Health Magazine and many other mens magazines, they have stated that regular ejaculation is healthy and recommended by scientists. They say that going for a while without ejaculation can lead to prostate cancer and other side effects. The men who ejaculated at least twice a week had the healthiest sperm and prostate. I think i would do it more than once a month and no i dont see how it could possibly make it shrink, just be unhealthy.

I agree with the fellas, don't ejaculate just once a month, do it at least once a week. inactivity can indeed lead to problems in your prostate and it does increase the risk of prostate cancer. Wanking is healthy.
