Hello
I read your statement and i understand your concern
No, Masturbation has no such side effect as gaining weight and fat, in fact, when you masturbate, you lose few dozen Kcal energy. Healthy practice of masturbation is 1-2 times per week and not once a day.
There are not established side effects of masturbation, but excessive masturbation have proved to affect sexual life of partners.
Thanks
