I agree with previous posters who mentioned "masturbation myths", the symptoms you mention are NOT related to masturbation. In fact, masturbation does not have these side effects, so if you have some health issues, it can be helpful to see your doctor, it can be symptoms of some other diseases, but not masturbation.

Google "masturbation myths" and you will find a lot of good information.  There is a list from About ******* written for teens, and one from Planned Parenthood, and also the following list which is excellent and informative.  I don't know if the MedHelp software will delete the link or not, but the site is called Jackworld in the title, you should be able to find it using Google.

Every guy wishes their penis was larger. This is a known fact. The moment guys hit puberty and even beyond reaching manhood, men always wish their penis was just a bit larger. Many questions that arise during school stay in their mind throughout their adult life. One of these questions is, does masturbation work as a penis enlargement exercise?

Can masturbation stimulate the growth of a penis?

Well, to answer your question in short, no. Masturbating will not enlarge the size of your penis. Fortunately, it also does not decrease its seize. Masturbation simply does not stimulate the penis in the way that a penis enraging exercise does.

How about male enhancement pills?

Sorry to disappoint you once again, but no! Male enhancement pills can only do so much and primarily just increase the blood flow to your friend downstairs. Thus resulting an a harder erection which gives you a false impression of a larger penis. Male enhancement pills cannot increase the size of your penis

also my body temp. seems to have gone higher...i keep sweating a lot all of a sudden n my hair line seems to have risen n a lil bit of baldness is starting..cld these be due to masturbating?

Sorry, but by all accounts, at age 16 masturbating 5 times a week is not excessive.  It sounds pretty normal.  You will not get hair loss from masturbation.
