Men’s Sexual Health & Masturbation Statistics: Global Insights for 2025
Men’s Health Data Deep Dive
Masturbation
These facts aren’t just statistics, they’re mirrors.
65 percent of men report masturbating monthly, and about 36 percent do so weekly, yet most still experience shame around it (Source: Allure). In the UK, a national survey found that 73 percent of men aged 16–44 had masturbated in the past month (Source: NATSAL 2007). In Canada, up to 95 percent of men report having masturbated at some point (Source: Allure).
21 or more ejaculations per month may reduce prostate cancer risk by approximately 31 percent (Source: Wikipedia).
Erectile Dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction in younger men is often caused by anxiety, not physical dysfunction. This trend is rising across North America and Europe, reflecting the growing mental health strain tied to performance pressure in men (Source: Mayo Clinic, Harvard Health).
Pelvic Floor Stimulation
Pelvic floor stimulation helped 72 percent of men with delayed orgasm regain function over six months of guided intervention (Source: Sexual Medicine Reviews, 2019).
Circumcision
Prevalence of circumcision varies globally, around 80% in the U.S., 20–80% across Africa (avg. ~62%), and 20.7% in the UK, reflecting deep cultural influences on anatomy, sensation, and sexual self-awareness (Source: Wikipedia).
Emotional Blocks Men
The top three emotional blocks seen in sexual wellness therapy are performance anxiety, lack of emotional safety, and shame linked to early conditioning, universal themes that show up whether you’re in California, Canada, the UK, or Africa.
Why Regional Stats Matter
| Region | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| California/USA | High circumcision norms, evolving sex education, increasing therapy acceptance — a ripe landscape for somatic-sexual healing and emotional care. |
| Canada | With ~95% of men admitting to masturbation, there’s enormous potential for reframing self-touch and sexual wellness as healthy, not shameful. |
| UK | Widespread masturbation suggests social normalization, yet silence still dominates — leaving space for education and emotional integration. |
| Africa | With ~62% circumcision and rich cultural nuance around intimacy, Dr. Chavez’s body-centered approach offers culturally adaptive therapeutic value. |
This isn’t about shock value.
It’s about clarity, compassion, and creating space for men to ask better questions about their health and their bodies.
Because wherever you are in the world, understanding yourself, fully and unapologetically, is the most radical step toward healing.
