Maynard: Despite rumours that masturbation can lead to infertility and even blindness, research has shown that it's actually got a whole lot going for it. On a very basic level, it releases dopamine - a neurotransmitter that activates the 'pleasure centre' in your brain, and endorphins that actively decrease your perception of pain. For women, that means it can actually reduce the pain of menstrual cramping. Plus you'll get a surge of the hormone prolactin, which will help you fall asleep afterwards. Men in particular seem to benefit the most, with high ejaculation frequency correlating with a decreased risk of prostate cancer. Scientists aren't yet sure why, but maybe all that ejaculating is clearing more carcinogens out of the prostate.
