Question
An 11-year-old child inquired about his recent onset of masturbation and his concern over whether watching inappropriate videos in his childhood could have led to early puberty.
Answer
It is recommended that this child reduce exposure to stimulating content, read more beneficial books, engage in physical activities, and participate in social activities. At the same time, efforts should be made to decrease the frequency of masturbation and improve its quality. Ideally, it should be limited to once or twice a week, with each session lasting about 10 to 20 minutes. If the child is diagnosed with an endocrine disorder, parents should immediately cooperate with the doctor for treatment and help the child establish good eating habits.
