Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your question.

Masturbation is considered as a normal human sexual behaviour. It does not cause any harmful health consequences. Some people have a beief that masturbation and loss of semen can cause weakness and medical problems. Please understand that this is not true and is just a misconception. Ther is no need to worry that you would have suffered bad consequences due to your masturbation or feel guilty about it.

If you have excessive worries or guilt regarding your masturbation, please consult a psychiatrist for further advise and counselling.

Wish you all the best.
