Not Mastubating????? Please Help
Posted: 12-15-06 01:14am

I'm a 19yo male. I sometimes get this urge not to masturbate for about a month. Is this unhealthy. During this period, I might become aroused maybe oce a week. Should I take care of the erection or what? I'm very curious. Please help.

Most of the men is saying that "i m overmasturbating. Does it have any bad effects?" and u r saying just the reverse of it. No one can decide in place of u. It is your life, your penis and hormones. Just give your decision according to your wishes and capabilities. I know 2 things that may give you some clues when giving the decision. First, if the semen get accumulated too much in your testicles or wherever they are, thats unhealthy. (wet dreams may be a solution for that). Second, after masturbation (however perfect your masturbation doesnt change this) some semen is left behind (thats why we have to pee..Even in that case they say some remains inside). That is not healthy either. But when having intercourse u get a full ejaculation.

semen does not "accumulate".
Sperm are an "on demand" kind of product.
It takes up to 70 days to procuce each spermatoazoa and they then "wait" in the epididymis (see the info post stickie at the top). In the epididymis they mature and become ready to be ejaculated.
If they are not ejaculated within a few days of maturing they are broken down and re-absorbed back into the body.

again, see my first reply.
This is simply inaccurate. Ejaculation is the same process whether you masturbate or have intercourse.
Due to the penis' self cleaning internal processes there may be the odd few sperm at any time in the urethral tube. There is always moisture being produced to lubricate the urethra and this lubricating fluid comes from the testicles and hence can contain sperm.
This is also why pre-cum (a natural lubricating fluid) can and often does contain sperm and why therefore you should always use a condom.

Other Problem

Often times the loss of libido or sexual desires in men is the result of other things, often times mental conditions. Are you depressed or stressed? While not always a problem in and of itsself, it can be a sign of other problem. I reccomend seeing a doctor and getting checked out thoroughly. Being a 19yo male and going a month without sexual arousal is unusual.
