Hi and thanks for the query,
From the start, I should say that masturbation DOES NOT render you impotent. However, it might other complications or side effects different from impotence.
Continuous masturbation leads to the release of certain neurotransmitters by the brain, due to sustained excitation like acetyl choline and catcholamines. these substances when they persist in a chronic manner might then lead to dependence, and cause the individual to lose pleasure in some degree in normal sex, to having pleasure on his or her own. Masturbation in males has been described to be associated with premature ejaculation.
Rare complications like traumatic lesions, wounds, urethral infections could be avoided through proper hygiene and use of non irritating lubricants during the process.
thanks and hope this helps,
best regards,
Luchuo, MD.

Hi,
How old are you? Anyways talking about your problem, i would suggest that excess of everything is bad. Though masturbation itself is not harmful as such but there are some factors which need to be taken care of:
1. Penis is also an organ and it is very delicate and sensitive too, overuse or manhandling might cause some structural problem, so if you are gentle with it then no problems.
2. Frequent masturbation has two probable reasons, increased sexual desire or getting indulged in porn, both of which needs to be managed because we are not here only to get indulged in sex, we have other motives also, otherwise you may find sexual thoughts ruling your mind always.
3. Another aspect is diet, the semen which is secreted contains high nutrition which is being extracted from your diet, so be regular with your diet having all the regular nutrients like cereals, meat, egg, vegetables, fruits etc. they will replenish the nutrition required.
4. Though impotency is not a usuall finding in cases of masturbation, still if you feel you are having some problem than see a good doctor there your doubts will be solved.
5. You can see a Homoeopathic Doctor also in your city, that will help you considerably.
Wish you a speedy recovery to health
