Can weakness, shrinkage in penis, and thinning of semen affect fertility?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 30-year-old, and I have masturbated since I was 14. Now I feel weakness and shrinkage in my penis. I have quit the habit of masturbation for the last four years. Will there be any problem with me becoming a father in the future? If yes, then how to treat it? My semen is not thick like before. Kindly help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Masturbation is a normal phenomenon. But it should not be a habit of regularly doing. As you are married, you can enjoy your romantic life without masturbation. However, you can become a father until your semen analysis has abnormal pathology. How long have you been married? There will be no shrinkage by masturbation. If semen is not thick, then get a semen analysis done. Exclusively four days of abstinence from sex or masturbation. Semen analysis can clear all your doubts.

Thank you.
