Hi
Thanks for posting your query.
Everyone would have masturbated. So first of all you need not have to feel guilty about it . If you feel guilty then it will start affecting your self confidence. You didn't mentioned how frequently you masturbate . There are no health hazards of masturbation but still frequently masturnating is not advisable. Constipation or hair loss is not due to masturbation. In my practice I have noticed that those who are actively masturbating had erectile problem once they got married and started having sex . So reduce the frequency of masturbation.
Any clarifications feel free to ask. Regards.
