DesparatelyLost

Hi,
I'm 17 years old and have never been properly diagnosed with PCOS. However, my Doctor (according to him) began treating me for PCOS and diagnosed me with Insulin Resistance in late 2005.
I've always had hormonal issues and I was just wondering if Masturbation had any effects on PCOS/Insulin resistance for better or for worse? I often find it's difficult for me to get "turned on" or in the mindset that I am, possibly due to having a time concentrating (?) it's very difficult to concentrate in the house I live in.
Can anyone give me any info on this issue?

Masturbating more or masturbating less isn't going to cure or worsen your PCOS. I doubt the act of masturbation affects it at all.

But lowered sex drive/libido is pretty common with PCOS/hormone imbalance. So is "foggy brain" of inability to focus.

HTH!

I know it's very hard to talk about these kinds of things at 17, but try not to be embarrassed. You're very anonomous in here, and your question is very normal -- no one thinks anything of it.

I can't really speak to PCOS as I'm very new at it. But I'm definitely insulin resistant as I'm a type 2 diabetic. IR can definately dampen your sex drive over all, and it can make it very hard to reach orgasm with a partner even if he's doing every really right. And no amount of masterbating is going to do you any harm. In fact, it's good for relieving stress. So don't worry at all about that.

I've found that a 30 minute walk three times a week really cranked up my libido -- maybe give that a try. There's nothing that it could hurt and a lot of things it can help.
