Hi
I'm sorry for your pregnancy losses. Masturbation does not cause miscarriages, so don't blame yourself for it. Have you done an antiphospholipid antibody test(APLA) ? It is one of the most common causes for recurrent miscarriages. Also have you checked your thyroid levels?
Hope it helps.
All the best
