Finasteride is known to cause erectile dysfunction, along with that hypothyroidism and anxiety disorder also contribute to erectile dysfunction. Addiction to masturbation should not be an issue, it's a quite natural and safe practice to seek sexual pleasure, untill one is compelled to do multiple times a day. It's in your best interest if you consult a urologist/psychiatrist where you need to get investigated first and then only appropriate treatment can be initiated.
