Hello,
Let me tell you Masturbation is done by almost all men some do it at an adolescent age while some do it at an older age. However doing Masturbation may give you temporary satisfaction but may impact your future sexual life. Also make a note there is a way difference between what you do with your hand and what you do in reality.
Some people can and do develop an addiction to masturbation. You may be spending too much time masturbating if masturbation causes you to:
* skip your chores or daily activities
* miss work or school
* cancel plans with friends or family
* miss important social events
Addiction to masturbation can harm your relationships and other parts of your life. Masturbating too much may interrupt your work or studies, which can lower productivity.
Also it seems you have developed causes of doing Masturbation by not being able to get proper erections.
However this issue is not a cause to worry as there are medications and treatment available for the same. Rest assured your problem can be resolved.

Hullo. Masturbation is not harmful for the body but it does more damage by causing marital discord. Masturbation results in penile fatigue causing erectile dysfunction and inability to have satisfactory intercourse.

Its a normal activity. It can become a problem only when it interferes with your normal life and sexual life. Till then, every frequency is okay.
2-3 times a week is not excessive. There should not be any issue.
