Dear Reader,

NO, masturbation does not stunt growth. Neither your penis, nor any other part of your body, including your height, is affected. Masturbation also does not cause blindness, hairy palms, or insanity, as some people have heard. Furthermore, masturbation does not cause men to lose their precious body fluids because more is being continually produced.

Masturbation causes pleasurable, soothing, exciting, orgasmic, and, ultimately, relaxing sensations (and guilt, at times, for some).

If your question is more about being short in stature, there are many other possible causes, including heredity. You can check with your pediatrician, if you are concerned, but be confident that masturbation is not responsible.
