I'm also a sophomore, studying molecular biology but I definitely don't have the same level of anatomical knowledge as you have. Thought I would pop over to congratulate you on a detailed and thoroughly convincing post.
I do however have issues with the anti-masturbation crusade. Whilst I can buy that a rise of prolactin could have a very short term detrimental effect to growth factor presence at the site of growth, it surely could not provide such an effect as to genuinely slow growth, as prolactin is degraded relatively quickly and normal blood flow restored within 15 minutes in most... Keep in mind also, that by suggesting to completely swear off masturbation on this basis, you also have to suggest swearing off sex as the biological effects of both are analogous to each other.
I certainly do not buy into your assertions that masturbation, a motion that by its very nature acts to move the foreskin in directions that they are designed (I know that 'designed' is an annoying term) to move, is too 'harsh'...
Also keep in mind the numerous well known benefits of regular ejaculation, shown to maintain semen 'health' and reduce carcinogen levels; reducing risks of prostate cancer. On balance, to me, the benefits of ejaculating regularly (and I really won't have you saying that its ok to have sex regularly and not to masturbate regularly) outweigh the rather tenuous link between abstaining from masturbation and increased growth.
Regards, and again, great article

it will be a free information hub in which i shall detail everything and also have links on the site which will direct people back to here and a few other places in order to easily obtain more information and be able to buy the things i will recommend for pennies on the dime. ive already introduced a few people on my campus to the penis yoga idea and they have taken to it wonderfully. It should all be up and running in 2 months!! i shall of course invite any and all members
i have studied a bit more and have come to an accurate conclusion for everyone. members have expressed concerns about my dislike of jelqing and also masturbation. Here is why, and how i am actually for them, but in a much more efficient manner
today. the declining health also explains why some boys do not experience much-if any penis growth even at the highest points of puberty.
Peace out gents.

. its not merely one or two links or any of the links. its the conclusion drawn from the evidence given in dozens of links. the more and more i have dug into the data the less and less substance i find. what i have spoken to you thus far is light years ahead of the curve. i have concluded such numbers by studying martial artists who have devoted a lifetime to their arts and the honing of skills. i have also studied life long athletes such as frank zane, carl lewis, ben johnson, lance armstrong, micheal jordan, wing chun masters, as well as masters from Kali, jujitsu, tei qaun do, karate, samurais, an several other notable martial arts/kung fuu's. Health in later years is vastly determined not by some mysterious force but a result of discipline. By either establishing a lifestyle change(a dramatic one) a bit of change can be had and progress made, but far far more is accomplished through when it is lifelong. I have scoured text books and research articles, but all of the people they studied were either in ridiculously poor health, under fed, average joe old folks, or people keyed up on some type of drug. SOO--i had to look for the signs and look at pictures of those people taken throughout some of their lives. i also had to determine rate of performance decrease. it was a very long and ardous process. its mainly why im starting my own website. its merely because the body of knowledge im going to bring to bear is ENORMOUS. its literally knowledge accumulated over my entire early adulthood and teenage years. ive seen libraries smaller than the amount of books ive read :/.
