A member asked:
Is it possible to have masturbation induced hypogonadism?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: There's no such thing. This has been made up to frighten young people about their sexuality. The observation that sperm counts are lower if ejaculation is more frequently simply reflects the fact that they become concentrated in storage as fluid is resorbed. Whoever told you this scare story might be a good person to stay away from altogether.
