Masturbation & Nightfall in Ayurveda - Masturbation: Ayurveda mein ise vyayama (natural activity) ke roop mein dekha jaata hai, lekin atiyoga (excess) se dhatu kshaya (tissue depletion), thakan, aur manasik asantulan ho sakta hai. - Healthy frequency: Kabhi‑kabhi (moderate) masturbation harmful nahi hai. Excess (rozana ya bahut adhik) se sharir ki shakti kam ho sakti hai. - Nightfall (Swapnadosh): Agar kabhi‑kabhi (jaise aapke case mein mahine mein ek baar) hota hai, to ye normal sharirik prakriya hai. Ye sharir ka apna balance banaye rakhne ka tareeka hai. 👉 Matlab: Na to masturbation “completely wrong” hai, na hi occasional nightfall koi rog hai. Problem tab hoti hai jab frequency bahut zyada ho, ya sharir mein weakness, anxiety, ya dhatu kshaya ke lakshan dikhne lagte hain. Rx 1.Ashwagandha churna 1 tsp twice daily with warm milk after meals 2.Musli pak 1 tsp twice daily with warm milk after meals 3.Brahmi vati 1 tab twice daily with water after meals 🥗 Diet & Lifestyle---- - Favor: Milk, ghee, soaked almonds, dates, jaggery in moderation, moong dal, seasonal fruits. - Avoid: Excess spicy, fried, junk food, alcohol, smoking. - Yoga/Pranayama: Vajrasana, Setu Bandhasana, Anulom Vilom, Bhramari → reduce stress and balance hormones. - Routine: Regular sleep, avoid late nights, reduce stress triggers.

Healthy range for most adult males: 2–5 times per week (once every 2–4 days) is completely normal and harmless. Good when: it relieves stress, improves sleep, helps understand your body, no guilt/shame attached. Bad when: becomes compulsive (daily multiple times), interferes with work/relationships, causes physical irritation, guilt, or you feel drained/low energy afterwards. ✓Completely wrong? No – it is a normal physiological activity (99% of males do it at some point). Only becomes problematic if excessive or linked to porn/escapism addiction. ✓Nightfall (Nocturnal Emission / Wet Dream) Once a month or less = completely normal and healthy (body’s natural way to release built-up semen). Happens more when you abstain from masturbation/sex for longer periods. Not a disease – no need to feel bad/guilty. It actually prevents congestion in reproductive system. ✓What to do if you want better control / less nightfall Moderate masturbation – 2–4 times/week is ideal balance (prevents excess buildup , reduces nightfall). Avoid porn completely for 30–90 days (biggest cause of hypersensitivity and quick discharge/nightfall). Kegel exercises – 50 reps × 3 daily (hold 5–10 sec) – strengthens pelvic floor → better control over ejaculation & reduces nightfall frequency. Ashwagandha – 5–10 gm Lehyam or 500 mg capsule night with warm milk (calms nerves, reduces stress-induced nightfall, improves stamina). Shatavari – 5 gm night with milk (nourishes reproductive system, balances hormones). ✓Lifestyle Sleep 10 PM – 6 AM strictly (nightfall more common with late nights) No heavy dinner after 8 PM Reduce stress: 10 min Anulom-Vilom before bed Avoid tight underwear at night Regards Dr Gursimran Jeet Singh MD Panchakarma

HELLO, MASTURBATION Masturbation in males is not a disease and not a sin. According to both modern science and Ayurveda, occassional masturbation does not cause harm. Problems arise only when it becomes -very frequent -compulsive -associated with guild, fear or anxiety -leading to weakness, fatigue, low confidence or sexual problems In Ayurveda, excessive ejaculation (weather by masturbation, intercourse, or nightfall) can lead to shukra dhatu kshaya (weakening of reproductive tissue) NIGHTFALL (SWAPNA DOSHA) Nightfall means involuntary ejaculation during sleep -rare nightfall once a month-> considered normal -Frequent nightfall-> signs of mental stress, weak digestion, disturbed vata-pitta, or overthinking about sex IN YOUR CASE -Nightfall is rare -stress is moderate -sexual health is fair This suggest a functional imbalance, not a serious disease According to Ayurveda, this condition is related to DOSHA INVOLVEMENT -Vata dosha-> causes involuntary discharge -Pitta dosha-> increases heat and excitement -Rajas guna (mental agitation)-> sexual thoughts, stress, anxiety DHATU (TISSUES) AFFECTED -reproductive tissue-> shukra dhatu -Majja dhatu-> nervous system TREATMENT GOALS -stabilize vata and pitta -nourish and strengthen shukra dhatu -calm the mind and nervous system -improve digestion and metabolism -reduce stress, guilt, and fear -improve confidence and overall vitality INTERNAL MEDICATIONS 1) ASHWAGANDHA AVALEHA= 1 tsp with warm milk at bedtime =stregthen nerves and reproductive tissue, reduces stress and anxiety, improves stamina 2) SHATAVARI GRANULES= 1 tsp with warm milk in morning =nourishes shukra dhatu, balances pitta 3) KAUCHA PAK= 1 tsp with warm milk twice daily =improves sperm strength and confidence, supports healthy ejaculation 4) MANASMITRA VATAKAM= 1 tab twice daily after meals =calms mind, reduces sexual overthinknig, improves sleep quality 5) CHANDRAPRABHA VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals =helps urinary and reproductive health, useful if associated with weakness or fatigue EXTERNAL THERAPIES 1) OIL MASSAGE -use balashawagandhadhi taila -especially on lower back, thighs, soles, and head =strengthen nerves and controls vata DIET -warm milk with ashwagandha avaleha as prescribed -ghee -almonds soaked and peeled -dates, raisins -rice, wheat -green vegetables -coconut AVOID -excess spicy food -fast food -junk food -excess tea,coffee -alcohol -late night heavy meals LIFESTYLE CHANGES DO’S -sleep before 10:30pm -regular routine -keep mind engaged in productive activities -physical exercise DON’TS -excess pornography -excess masturabtion -overthinking about sexual performance -late night screen use YOGA ASANAS -sarvangasana -bhujangasana -dhanurasana -paschimottanasana PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= 15 min daily -Bhramari= reduces mental agitation -deep abdominal breathing MEDITATION 5-10 min daily -focus on breathing, not suppressing of thoughts HOME REMEDIES -warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg at nigh occassionally -foot massage with sesame oil before sleep -avoid sleeping on stomach -empty bladder before sleep IMPORTANT -occassioanl masturbation is nOT harmful -rare nightfall is NORMAL -fear and guilt worsen symptoms -your symptoms is reversible and manageable Your body is not weak, it is only temporarily imbalanced due to stress and mental overactivity.

-Masturbation is normal and safe. Doing it a few times a week is fine and not harmful. -Nightfall (wet dreams) is also normal. It happens when the body releases semen naturally, usually during sleep. -Both are not signs of illness. Stress, irregular sleep, or not ejaculating for some time can increase nightfall. -If either causes distress, pain, or affects daily life, it’s good to consult. *****- in case there is daily night fall it’s point of concern, so firstly tell tendency of night fall?

I have rare nightfall issue but I have a problem of masturbating many times and sometimes I think that I have no energy remaining in my body so how i can quit or control my urges ??

-To control urges: Delay for 10–15 minutes when the urge comes Do physical activity (walk, exercise, cold water) Avoid triggers like porn and late-night phone use Maintain regular sleep and daily routine Nightfall is normal and does not require treatment. -Yoga & Pranayama Anulom-Vilom Bhramari Surya Namaskar Meditation 10–15 min daily - internal medicine - 1)Ashwagandha Churna Dose: 5 g Anupana: Warm milk Time: Night (HS) 2)Shatavari Churna Dose: 3–5 g Anupana: Warm milk Time: Morning (empty stomach) or night 3)Saraswatarishta Dose: 15ml Frequency: Twice daily Anupana: Equal quantity of water Time: After meals Optional (if anxiety/sleep issue): 4) Manasmitra Vatakam Dose: 1 tablet Time: Night (HS) Note: Short-term use only

Normal if done occasionally (1–2 times per week usually considered safe). Does not harm health if not excessive. ❌ Excess masturbation cause (Ayurvedic view) Dhatukshaya (weakness) Fatigue Back pain Reduced concentration Anxiety / guilt feeling Nightfall Occasional nightfall is normal. Frequent nightfall (many times/week) needs care. Ashwagandha churna – 1 tsp with milk at night Shilajit (purified) –1tab once daily Kaunch beej churna – 1 tsp with milk Drink milk regularly Eat dry fruits (almonds, dates) Take ghee in food Avoid spicy, junk food and alcohol

Hello I get where you’re coming from. A lot of guys worry about masturbation and nightfall, so you’re not alone. Let’s break it down, using what I know about Ayurvedic practices. YOUR CONCERN – Your sexual health is alright – Nightfall happens rarely (once a month) – You’re a bit stressed – You’re mainly wondering: Is masturbation bad? How much is okay? Is nightfall bad? Is losing semen making me weak? Ayurvedic View In Ayurveda, semen (Shukra dhatu) is seen as your body’s most refined tissue. It’s made like this: Food turns into Blood, then Muscle, then Fat, then Bone, then Marrow, then Semen. So, losing too much can make you feel: – Less energetic – Nervous – Insecure – Like you have weaker erections – Forgetful But holding it in completely isn’t good either. Blocking that energy can cause: – Anxiety – Prostate issues – Nightfall – Early… you know So, it’s all about finding the right balance. What’s Nightfall? Nightfall is just your body getting rid of extra semen. It happens when: – You have a lot of sexual thoughts – You don’t release sexually in a healthy way – You’re stressed – Your nerves are a bit weak Getting it once or twice a month is normal. If it’s happening a lot, it could mean you’re weak and have a Vata imbalance. But in your case (once a month), it sounds fine. How Much Masturbation is Okay? It really depends on how strong you are, how old you are, how well you digest food, and how stressed you are. For most guys: – Strong : 1-2 times a week – Average: Once every 7-10 days – Weak/Anxious: Once every 15 days Doing it daily is generally not good. And multiple times a day can really mess you up. Why You Might Feel Bad It could be because of: – Stress – Thinking about it too much – Feeling guilty – Worrying about being weak – Not doing it regularly These things mess with your Vata dosha, which affects: – Your nerves – Erections – Ejaculation – How confident you feel What to Do To make your semen and nerves stronger: 1. Ashwagandha: 1 capsule at night 2. Shatavari churna 1 tsp with warm milk 3. Brahmi:1 capsule at night Calms your mind and can help with nightfall 4. Almonds + dates + milk: Every night ❌AVOID – Porn – Too much masturbation – Junk food – Smoking – Alcohol – Staying up late Masturbation isn’t a sin, and nightfall isn’t a disease. But losing too much semen can make you feel weak. It’s about having control, eating well, and staying calm. Warm Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate

Masturbation in males is not a disease or a wrong act when it happens occasionally it does not reduce strength immunity or sexual capacity the body naturally produces semen and releasing it at proper intervals does not harm health problems start only when the habit becomes frequent compulsive or driven by stress anxiety or excessive mental stimulation then it affects the nervous system digestion sleep and confidence more than the reproductive system itself nightfall is a natural and involuntary process and having it rarely like once a month is normal and does not need treatment it increases with stress irregular sleep late nights excess screen exposure spicy oily food and lack of physical activity what ayurveda advises is balance not forceful control of natural urges regular sleep before eleven light nourishing food daily walking breathing exercises and a calm mind help maintain reproductive health when there is no weakness fatigue or daily disturbance there is no need to worry or take medicines
