Can Masturbation Cause Memory Loss And Absentmindedness?

Hi I am a 20 year old man who masturbates about once a day (sometimes twice). I have read that masturbation can cause memory loss (short term) and absentmindedness, both of which I have started to suffer from starting about 6 months ago. Is this a side effect of over masturbation . If not, what can I do to help these ailments? Also, is over masturbation bad for you?
