I've been wondering about the effects of daily masturbation over many years. I'm 28 now, could this habit be lowering my testosterone levels? Also, are there other factors or things I should be aware of that might be causing low testosterone?

Daily masturbation does not significantly impact testosterone levels in a healthy 28-year-old. However, chronic stress, poor diet, lack of sleep, obesity, and certain medical conditions (e.g., hypogonadism) can contribute to low testosterone levels. It's important to maintain a healthy lifestyle for optimal hormone balance.
