Hi,
Thanks for your query.
There is no consensus on the frequency of masturbation.
As long as it does not affect your activities of daily living, studies, job, interpersonal relationships etc --- whatever you do is fine.
There is a lot of myth revolving around this issue, that i can affect future erections, child bearing and so on. None of these is true.
You should not feel guilty about it and if so already - kindly remove it first from your mind.
Only worrying can cause anxiety and related problems with erection.
Once a day is fine. It is extremely unlikely to have any adverse impact on your body or on your sexual abilities in future.
All the best and wishing you good health.
Regards
DR GS
