"A Treatise on the Diseases Produced By Onanism, Masturbation, Self-Pollution, and Other Excesses" by L. Deslandes is a scientific publication written in the early 19th century. This treatise aims to delve into the health consequences of onanism and other forms of sexual excess, specifically addressing how these practices can lead to a range of physical and mental ailments. The author seeks to enlighten both medical professionals and the general public about the significant dangers associated with these habits. The opening of the text presents a preface that outlines the importance of discussing the often-ignored consequences of masturbation and similar behaviors. Deslandes argues that these practices can undermine health and strength, often without individuals realizing the harm they are causing. The preface emphasizes the need for awareness among both medical practitioners and potential patients and sets up the subsequent detailed examination of the physiological effects that follow from these sexual practices. Deslandes swiftly transitions into discussing various aspects of sexual health, including the physical and mental states influenced by the act of venery, thus establishing a foundation for his detailed exploration of the topic that follows in the subsequent chapters.
