What are the consequences of excessive masturbation?
Moderate masturbation does not significantly affect physical health; however, excessive masturbation may interfere with normal daily life and lead to urological disorders, impaired growth and development, and urinary system diseases.
① Development of Urological Disorders
Excessive masturbation may cause conditions such as kidney deficiency, instability of kidney essence, and mental fatigue. If left unaddressed, it may further progress to erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, and nocturnal emission—and potentially trigger inflammatory conditions including epididymitis, orchitis, prostatitis, and seminal vesiculitis.

② Impairment of Growth and Development
Special substances within the prostate gland convert testosterone—produced by the testes—into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). In addition to maintaining male secondary sexual characteristics, DHT plays a crucial role in promoting muscle and bone development. Excessive masturbation can cause chronic prostatic congestion, impairing local blood circulation, reducing metabolic activity and nutrient supply, thereby adversely affecting muscular and skeletal development in males.
③ Urinary System Disorders
Excessive masturbation often leads to chronic congestion of the prostate, seminal vesicles, and epididymis, resulting in compromised blood circulation, diminished metabolism and nutrient delivery, and weakened disease resistance and immunity. Even minor external stimuli may then precipitate inflammatory conditions such as prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis, and epididymitis—disorders affecting the genitourinary system.
