Hi Sir, Welcome to Health Care Magic I can certainly understand your concern about the adverse effects of masturbation. Frequent or over masturbation causes over keratinization and thickening of skin over penis, which might lead to decrease In. Sensitivity and erection problems. So I would like to advise you to prevent masturbation as far as possible. I can advise you some tips to prevent that like engaging yourself in busy schedule to distract yourself ...And try to look for some other pleasures like watching TV, shopping, spending time with family members etc.. The other way is to perform physical activity regularly to activate your through the production of BDNF ie brain derived neurotropic factor which also could reduce your stress. There is a possibility that because of more stress you might be involving in this, so I can advise you to start some antianxiety drugs like SSRIs ie escitalopram which can help you better. Actually it is not so worrysome at your age group as you are practicing since 5 yrs, but try to prevent problems in the initial stage. You can consult your Psychiatrist for any further help Post your further questions if any, I will available to take up your follow up questions Thank you
