Does masturbating cause weight loss?

Hey good people, I’ve heard some conflicting opinions about whether masturbating can contribute to weight loss. Can anyone shed light on this topic? I’m curious to know if there’s any scientific basis behind these claims or if it’s just a myth. Any insights or information would be appreciated. Thanks!

Masturbation doesn’t directly lead to weight loss, but it can burn a small amount of calories, similar to light physical activity. For significant weight loss, maintaining a balanced diet and regular exercise routine are more effective strategies.

Masturbation does not cause weight loss. While it can raise your heart rate and make you sweat, the calorie burn is minimal. Studies show that both masturbation and sex burn few calories compared to traditional workouts. Though it offers health benefits like stress reduction and better sleep, it’s not effective for losing weight.

I don’t think so, I have been jerking off for around 2 years and I’m obese.

No, masturbation does not cause weight loss.

It will trigger the dopamine effect, leading you to crave more dopamine-boosting foods like carbs and chocolate. As a result, it could actually contribute to weight gain.
