Masturbation can't cause impotency OR decrease the size of a man's of penis and testicles. If the testicles are really small (hypoplastic), this might be the real cause for impotency and a small penis. You can request sperm analyses (spermogram) and hormonal analyses (testosterone, FSH, and LH) in order to first diagnose the problem. Hypogonadism can be primary (testicular failure), secondary (pituitary failure) or tertian (hypothalamus failure). You HAVE TO visit a urologist and endocrinologist for a detailed examination.
