I'm kind of worried because I've been masturbating a lot since I was young, and now I'm concerned that it might have drained my sexual power. Every time I do it, I seem to feel unusually tired for almost three days. Could this be why I'm also having pains in my legs and arms, and why I feel sleepy all the time, like my sleep just isn't enough anymore? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

Frequent masturbation can sometimes lead to temporary fatigue and muscle soreness. It's important to give your body time to rest and recover, ensuring a healthy balance in your lifestyle. Prioritize regular exercise, a nutritious diet, and sufficient sleep to help restore your energy levels and overall well-being. If the symptoms persist, consider consulting a healthcare professional for further guidance.
