I believe the issues are more related to masterbation and pornography than sex, here have some pop science:
I believe Huberman had Anna Lembke, the author of Dopamine Nation, on his podcast and they discussed a dopamine fast for raising baseline. The fast included abstinence from alcohol, caffeine, tobacco, and sex (not just masturbation or pornography).
I could be misremembering it, and I don’t believe one view necessarily contradicts the other.

Keep in mind I am wierd because I’m schizophrenic, autistic, and bipolar but it works for me.
