can masturbation cause enlarged prostate or benign prostatic hyperplasia or any other problem? plz be specifi?

i know its written in all sites that masturbation is gud for relieving tension, alternative to sex can prevent prostate cancer later in life but there was a medical report that i saw recently which stated men who masturbate regularly in their teens and 20s are more likely to develop prostate problems in 20s and 30s. but i don’t understand if this is true or not. is masturbating regularly everyday OK or will it cause u urinary incontinence or impotency later in life?? i have read a lot but there was this one report which really shocked me which said masturbation can cause problems in 20s & 30s. as all muscles become weak so will the pelvic and bladder ones which can cause impotence, dribbling. do u know these??

You can’t believe everything you read on the internet. Even if someone claims to be medically qualified, how can you be certain? Masturbation is the same physiologically as sexual intercourse; and if sex doesn’t cause these problems, why would masturbation? All body functions are designed to be used regularly, so why would our sexual functions be different? These two links are to proper medical research which indicates that masturbation is healthy:

The UK government has recently produced a leaflet advising all teenagers to masturbate, stating that they have "a right to an orgasm per day". The UK has the highest rate of teenage pregnancy in Europe, and masturbation is a completely safe alternative to sex.

    I don’t believe there has been any evidence showing a correlation to masturbation and prostate problems however, BPH is believed to result from the conversion of testosterone into DHT/ Dihydrotestosterone, (a more powerful version of testosterone) in the prostate and in other target cells of the body. But it’s still more of a theory than it is a fact. Most men will have some problems with their prostate as they get older and it seems like the older we get the more likely we will have some of those problems, even prostate cancer. A well renown prostate cancer doctor was asked if there was any way for a man to prevent getting prostate cancer and his reply was, "don’t get old"! He was probably right.
