Can masturabation cause erectile dysfunction?

Feeling a bit low on energy lately, and sometimes worrying about my performance. There's a lot of talk online and among friends about whether frequent masturbation can lead to problems like erectile dysfunction in the long run. Can someone please clarify if this is a real risk?

I have been doing it since my teenage years and am now happily married with no performance issues at all. In my experience, it has zero impact on your physical ability unless you overthink it.

Beta, in our youth we also heard these scary rumors from friends. Now at this age, I can tell you it is completely false. It is a natural process and won't cause any medical problems later in life.

I sometimes struggle to maintain an erection during intimacy and I keep wondering if my past habits are the reason. Has anyone else felt this kind of worry and how did you overcome it?

The act itself doesn't cause ED, but sometimes stress or performance anxiety can make it seem like it. I had similar issues and it turned out to be high blood pressure, so it's always better to get a doctor's opinion.

Nahi bhai, aisa bilkul nahi hota. Yeh sab bas man ka bham hai. Aap bilkul chinta mat kariye, isse koi kamzori nahi aati hai shareer mein.
