Going to Stop Masturbating

[XLEdwards Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close XLEdwards]

Okay, for starters, not too sure where this topic truly belongs, so if this is the wrong board; sorry!

Now then, on the topic of me stopping masturbation, I have one question to ask about this: Will this effect my health/penile health negatively? I ask this, because I came across an article on the interwebs on a man who experimented on excluding masturbation, thus he has some negative effects throughout the month long experiment.

The only reason I'm doing this in the first place, is because of my direct commitment to my religion, which I've already ended my viewing of pornographic material. However, if doing this, stopping myself from masturbating, will effect me negatively and hurt my prostate in any reason, I don't think I can do such a thing.

I read from that article, the man who stopped masturbating for a whole month experienced problems with his prostate, as well mental health issues. I don't know if that's just overreacting, or whatever, but I'd just like to know everyone's else's thoughts on this.

Thank you!

There's nothing wrong with masturbation but porn is literally a drug and extremely poisonous to your sex life, at least when it is a habitual part of your life, coupled with regular masturbation.

For more info on this, look to yourbrainonporn.com

If you are someone that has grown up regularly masturbating to porn, quitting will be extremely difficult. It is very much like a cocaine addict going cold turkey, particularly if you abstain from both porn and masturbation for the "reset' period, as is often recommended.

You should expect serious withdrawal symptoms, including a period of "flatline" in which your dopamine reward pathways struggle to rebalance. During this time people often experience little/no erections, little/no libido and sometimes severe turtling and temporary shrinking of the genitals.

This all resolves within a few weeks, and your reward is better erections than you've ever had in your life, a healthy libido that does not require porn, massively increased enjoyment of sex, increased confidence and energy levels and more.

Just know that it's a difficult difficult journey. I myself am on day 1 yet again, after another relapse, and I'm an adult man with an attractive girlfriend etc. etc. We don't realise how addicted we are until we try to stop.

Quitting masturbation entirely is an unnatural and pointless endeavour with no health benefits and is largely pointless because whether or not your stimulate yourself consciously, your body will find ways to deal with that build up of ejaculate while you're unconscious, so be prepared to change your sheets on a regular basis.

Okay, I already knew the majority of all that. I may have not been clear enough on my question; I just wanted to know if there were any NEGATIVE effects from not masturbating. I know it's not seen as a bad thing, but I'm choosing not to masturbate because of my religion. I'm aware that if you don't masturbate for awhile, there are chances of having wet dreams(even though I've never had one before).

And I don't find not watching porn hard, or difficult, it's actually quite easy for me lol, but as said before, I was just wanting to know if stopping the act of masturbation will have any NEGATIVE effects on my health overall. If not, that's cool, but if it will/does, I would like to know.

There is some small evidence to suggest that having sex and masturbating regularly slightly decreases the rate of prostate cancer. Other than that I'm not really aware of anything.

The reason why the data only seems to show a benefit for high frequency ejaculation is because if you don't masturbate, your body will masturbate for you when you are asleep, but not to the extent required for this possible benefit.

Well , if you don´t have a girl to throw your milk I think masturbating is not bad but relaxed, not rushing ...

I dont condone ejaculations. Its a waste of energy. And it isnt natural imo. Ive said this before but there are tons of nutrients and growth hormones in sperm and semen. To blast them all out into nothingness is a WASTE. There are ways to injaculate that keeps the energy withn the body. People who experience prostate problems or mental problems are not use to the added energies inside their bodies...over time these feelings go away. I kno from experience. Its not as normal, as the world would have people believe, to be ejaculating as often as we do. Logically speaking we only need to ejaculate to produce life or children. Other than that there are injaculation methods that ive found to feel more natural and to be beneficial to my body.

Tho ofcourse u said "masturbation" and linked it to religion so u may not be able to injaculate either...unless u gain alot of control over your body which is very much possible.

I do NOT think ejaculations help cure prostate problems. I think most prostate problems are caused by diet. (Same as most other problems withn the body) Eating Raw Vegan/Fruitarian or at least lowering red meats and processed/cooked foods. - Here is a link "scientifically" backing up that claim, tho its common sense if u can understand how life or biology works.

Hope u found this helpfull. What religion are u with, if i may ask.

There is some science to suggest it increases prostate issues. It means the penis gets less exercise usually not a good thing . Not get any science on the mental aspects, but just being around the boards as long as I have, it certainly seems guys who abstain for long periods, have a tendance to mental health issues.

Many guys benefit from stoping porn.

There was some research done, in the UWA I think, showing that young men who had J/O frequently were significantly less prone to prostate cancer in later life. 1-2/day until 30; 1/day until 40 and a bit less frequently thereafter were recommended.

They found that the effect were more beneficial with masturbating than with the same frequency of intercourse.

It stand s to reason that if prostatic fluid accumulates in the prostate, it will go sour and the research shows that;s when the carcinogens develop. So ejaculate - regularly and frequently. Use the hand nature gave you for the purpose.

For the same reason, injaculation is harmful and every man should avoid it. The ancient Chinese recommended it but it's one of the few things they got wrong.

When I was growing up, my father sent for me and said - "If you play with yourself, you will go mad". I went away and thought I have all sorts of mates to play with. Then the reality struck - he meant my secret vice. I decided then that the damage was already done and I was not mad and went to bed for my usual pleasant end to the day. Habit of a long, so far prostate cancer free, life.

Sun Giver talks of the nutrients, etc you lose with ejaculation. Just recycle, by consuming your own ejaculate. You will love it - after you get used to it.

I do accept that a meat free or meat limited diet confers many benefits and fighting carcinogens may well be one important one.

Although what I say may be nothing short of bias, I really don't condone much, if any masturbation. Porn is pure evil and that and overmasturbation destroyed my EQ and gave me pelvic floor issues. If you want to ejaculate then have sex. Otherwise I recommend a fleshlight stamina training unit since it will be more like the real thing and you won't get the "death grip". In an ideal world, masturbation wouldn't exist because we are all having sex with our partners. If you have to masturbate, keep it down to 3 times a week.

Masturbation till ejaculation is a waste of energy. Eating/drinking the fluids after the fact will still result in a loss of energy and all the nutrients will not be absorbed.

Yes, injaculation can be dangerous if know the man does not know what he is doing, but if done correctly it can save and even build on the bodies nutrition. This is similar to a woman injaculating and a woman ejaculating/squirting. If a woman squirts she does lose nutrients. Women are naturally better at controlling their pc, men are not. This is why some men experience problems with injaculation, they arent in full control of their pc and their injaculation fluids go into places it shouldnt.

Injaculation isnt harmful, its just that most men have trouble learning to do it properly, and there is not a lot of information out to help them understand. When a man ejaculates for no reason, he is draining himself for pleasure.
