Psychiatrist,  's  Response
hello , maturbation as such is not a problem in adlolescent and unmarried young men, but as you know excess of everything is bad. In your case, I think you should understand that semen which is ejaculated at the end of masturbation is continuously produced once sexual maturation is attained. So , it is meant for ejaculation only either you ejaculate it voluntarily ( sexual intercourse with partner or masturbation) pr involuntarily( nocturnal emission). But masturbating many times a day as I guess in your case, is a result of your excessive focus towards sex and poor attention to other academics and extracurricular activities. Strong determaination is must for leaving masturbation. you cannot stop it all of a sudden but instead you can stop it gradually and not abruptly. yes it would be good for you to consult a psychiatrist/ sexologist for your problems. there is nothing to be shy in discussing your problems with your doctor. hope this helps you. Any more queries are welcome.
