OCD does not cause: masturbation or anything else. It can get your attention so focused on any behavior that you start doing that compulsively to ward off imagined dangers, most of which one cannot even name. Thus one can count objects, walk a certain way, etc. but it is the symptom, not the cause. Please see a mental health professional who specializes in OCD for support. Peace and good health.
