Masturbation: Masturbation and sexual activity have no connection to your testosterone level.

If bored with: Masturbating so much - please give yourself permission to stop or reduce. If masturbating this often due to boredom - recommend that you develop other areas of your life. Spend time with others, engage in sports, get hobbies, etc. Your excessive masturbation will not increase or decrease your testosterone level.

A 16-year-old male asked:
I know penis size is determined by genetics, but testosterone also plays a role during adolescence, yes? Masturbation depletes testosterone from the testes. Therefore, masturbation during adolescence can reduce possible penis size. Is this correct?

Does sex/masturbation affect natural testosterone levels in any way? Many studies (some peer reviewed) have contradicting answers. I am a 23 yr male.
