Question
Is it possible for children to enter puberty prematurely due to masturbation?
Answer
Masturbation may stimulate the hypothalamus in the brain to secrete sex hormones, thereby causing early puberty. However, this information is not mentioned in many textbooks. To avoid early puberty, it is recommended to reduce or avoid masturbation and stay away from pornographic content. At the same time, diverting attention through engaging in personal interests can also be a method of self-control.
