A member asked:

Is possible that masturbation can be affecting my attention in classes or my capacity to learn new things?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Indirectly: Self sex will have no direct effect on any body function, including fertility,growth, capacity for learning,etc. Your mental preoccupation with sex can easily become a limiting factor.Whether this is a reflection of your baseline hormone levels or your frustration level, the act by itself is not the issue.
