Not masturbation; ejaculation. Big difference. It is working out a part of your body, clearing yourself of stagnating cells, and stimulating your body to produce more, to not shut itself down in dormancy.
And doing it with an adult human female who you are in a long-term relationship with, is better. Hormonal balancing then becomes an included element and whatnot.
That aside, get outta here with your Kantian morality. Plenty of immoral actions lead to healthier results. A thief with the options of stealing cheap wonderbread, or much more expensive healthier food, well, stealing more expensive stuff would be more immoral, but clearly, more healthy, to use an extremely cut-and-dry example. Your body ultimately does not care about your morality. Your soul does, but your soul doesn't get cancer. At least, not that we know of.
Is the link between masturbation and cancer real? I can't imagine immoral actions leading to healthier results.

But is the lack of ejaculation really linked to prostate cancer? Do chaste monks get more cancer?
What, you don’t trust the science? /s
