This sounds like a pretty normal teenager to me. He also deserves some privacy. You may want to consult your doc about such issues and get some training is developmental expectations in teens. Masturbation and sexual focus begin to accelerate in the teen years as they develop an idea of who they are and what they feel about the changes in their body.

Relatively common around that age specifically in the context of puberty and body changes. No suggestion of mental illness, make sure you do not overreact. Talk to his pediatrician as well at his well visit so that you get peace of mind
