Hello- Yes it does. A stressful environment created by long-term sexual exhaustion and over masturbation can lead to inflammation of the nervous system coupled with the accumulation of harmful, pro-oxidant proteins that cause brain cell destruction. The hippocampus, the part of the brain that controls long-term memory and spatial navigation, experiences damage. According to researchers, the glucocorticoids in your body start to damage the hippocampus during the secretion process in exhausted and stressed states (usually associated with Over Masturbation).
