Hi,

Do not worry. Masturbation is normal sexual behavior and it is just like sex without involvement of partner. It does not cause erectile dysfunction. Sometime excessive masturbation cause decrease in sperm count, psychological issue that cause erectile dysfunction. But chance of erectile dysfunction is extremely rare. I would suggest to do moderate masturbation (3-4/week).

Be confident, eat high protein diet with lots of fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables, avoid stress, do regular exercise like running, walking for 45-60 minutes in morning followed by yoga, drink plenty of water.Congratulation in advance for marriage.

Hope this may help you. Contact further if follow up needed.

Best regards,
Dr. Sagar
