I'm really worried about the effects of over-masturbation. I've been dealing with early ejaculation, hair loss, semen leakage, fatigue, and weakness for the past five years. Can you tell me if these issues can be reversed and what steps I should take to improve my situation?

Over-masturbation itself doesn't directly cause severe health issues like hair loss, fatigue, or semen leakage, but anxiety or guilt around it can lead to stress, which might worsen these symptoms. Addressing underlying stress, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and seeking professional guidance can help improve your condition.
