I'm not sure what you mean exactly by self-transfer, but I assume you are consolidating UTXOs. Every time you consolidate UTXOs an adversary can guess they all have the same owner. You are basically merging the histories of the coins together, so it really depends on where the UTXOs have come from. If they come from different sources then your privacy is reduced.
