Masturbation is unhealthy is a claim made in the ongoing debate regarding the overall health implications of masturbation -- usually relating to male-masturbation.

This debate has existed in many iterations, those being: religious arguments, discussions surrounding the fear of physiological or psychological consequences, and efforts to avoid feelings of guilt or loss of control. Modern cultural phenomena such as "No Nut November" and "NoFap" have reignited the debate regarding masturbation and the positive or negative overall health impacts.

Testosterone

One of the physiological concerns is that frequent masturbation is causing reduced testosterone levels in males -- a problem that has been increasing in Western countries since -?- (Citation) However, the frequency of masturbation is unknown pre-year- and evidence suggest it is a natural part of human sexual developmental behaviour (cite).

Studies have shown that abstinence from masturbation for up to 7 days can raise the serum-testosterone levels - 145.7% of the baseline (P<0.01). No regular fluctuation was observed following continuous abstinence after the peak. It is unknown whether the T-levels of the 28 volunteers diminished after the 7 day period of abstinence, or if continued abstinence would maintain this peak.[1]
