Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Dear user,
Thanks for writing to HCM.
I can understand your concern about perceived effects of masturbation.
Let me tell you young friend that there is no such thing as excessive masturbation or over-masturbation. Just as 'excess' of sexual intercourse cannot lead to weakness, so also 'excess' of masturbation.
Sexual intercourse is not BAD HABIT, so also the masturbation.
Masturbation does not cause thinning of hairs or memory problems. This is very rampant myth.
Low sexual desire and erectile problems are due to semen loss anxiety which can be overcome by psychological counseling with short course of anti anxiety medications. Relax and go for it with a psychiatrist.
You can surely come back with your sex life. This is a temporary trouble which can be cured.
Wish you good health.
