Does Masturbation Lead to Early Puberty?

Question

I frequently masturbate, can it lead to early puberty?

Answer

Masturbation refers to the act of relieving sexual desire through self-stimulation. If it occurs occasionally, it has little impact on physical and mental health. However, if it happens frequently, it can have adverse effects on both physical and psychological aspects. In fact, the harm of masturbation is not based on the loss of seminal fluid, but rather on the abnormal attitude and repeated sexual stimulation caused by frequent masturbation affecting sexual function. After masturbation, adolescents often experience guilt, shame, and worry, which can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, lower back pain, weak legs, lack of vitality, decreased libido, premature ejaculation, seminal emission, and inability to climax. In severe cases, it can lead to neurasthenia and chronic prostatitis due to repeated organ congestion.
