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.

I've been wondering about a few things. I'm a 17-year-old guy and I've been masturbating since I was 16. Lately, I've heard some stuff that has me a bit worried. Does masturbating lead to hair loss or affect the levels of protein and calcium in my body? And does the body actually produce semen every day? I'm just curious and would appreciate some guidance.
