A member asked:

I think I over masturbated during puberty and that probably affected how I couldve ended up. Masturbating changes hormones increases estrogen. Im thinking if I didnt do that I couldve had a deeper voice and bigger penis. Thoughts?

A member asked:

The head of my penis has fairly deep wrinkles and lines both when it is flaccid and when I have an erection. I think this is due to repeated friction and unlubricated rough masturbation during puberty. Is there anything that can be done about this?

I am currently 19 and feel as if I have been the same height since I was 14. I think I may have hit puberty a little late as I did not ejaculate from masturbation until the end of 8th grade when I was about 14. Is it still possible to grow taller?
During puberty i masturbated excessively and decreased my T-levels. Side effects were: Gyno, severe acne, depression, hair loss and weak, small testes and penis. I am an adult now,22. If I increase T-level, will my genitals grow to its potential now?

Hey, im 14, a teen who does masturbation by the way i reached puberty when i was 12 or 13 and im still the same height (172cm) if i stop masturbation will i get more taller (im masturbating since i reached puberty)?
Does masturbation from a young age "e.g 10" trigger early puberty, therefore causing premature epiphysial closure and shortness compared to peers when hitting 18 years? Or does it have no effect on a person's height or the age which puberty starts?
