My question is: is it harmful to a male to go for an extended period of time without coming to orgasm? Since I first learned to masturbate at age fourteen, I have seldom gone more than a day or two without an orgasm. Even when I got married, and I expected to fuck her every day, I had to admit after a few months that it was not going to be that way, so I reverted to masturbating between fuck sessions. Now that I am older, I still feel the need to get off regularly, even though my wife does not want to fuck all that often. But I have found that it is not as easy to masturbate to orgasm as it was a few years ago. Have any others had this experience?
No, it just may mean you produce a bit more cum the longer you don't masturbate for in between times.
When I hear of woman swallowing cum, I think of all those sperm going down her throat & having a good swim around for awhile & wondering where they end up coming out again ?
Yes, this happens with age. Also, it is harmful to older men to go without orgasm for a while. Well, perhaps not harmful, but the body has a "use it or lose it" clause about orgasm. If you stop regularly orgasming, the body stops cooperating at those times you do want to orgasm. Once a day is a satisfactory maintenance routine. One can skip a day or two, but not too many days or too often. So, keep it up! You also might want to increase your use of vibrators, lube or other masturbation aids, for both variety and ease of orgasm.
No harm comes, (pun not intended), abstinence, just frustration. Sperm cells to deteriorate and are reabsorbed if not ejaculated. Don't let it be a concern or a cause for friction between you and your wife.
This is a great post! I have always heard that it is good for prostate health to cum on a regular basis and if I didn't have such a great lady taking care of me I would take care of it myself.
I do not think that there is any long term damage. However the longer you go without orgasam the weaker and more dead sperm you will have stored. You need to release them and allow new sperm to grow in order for them to stay strong and healthy. Also you can weaken your sex drive this way and prevent yourself from being able to stay hard for very long or at all in some cases. However 99% of the time all these effects are not long lasting and you can soon restore your mighty wand to its former glory. If you really want to know for 100% sure either ask a doctor or ask on some medical forums if you want it to be a little less personal. Im sure they will be able to give you more accurate information.
It is healthy for a mans prostrate for him to ejaculate once a day. I don't think a man needs to go more than a week without having one,......
I read something somewhere about the health benefits of a woman reaching orgasm regularly. I can't remember all the details but perhaps the same is true of both genders? I usually have no fewer than one a week but if I make a good connection with someone, it can be a lot more. Hopefully the health benefits are physical as well as mental!
To Son of John, I believe we have to get rid of the old cells. Think of urine left in the bladder for an extended period of time, not a good thing. Old gases sitting in the lungs can lead to pneumonia. Hence, the importance of deep breathing and the occasional cough. Sperm needs to be literally "ejaculated" to get rid of the old stuff so new spermies can be produced. Also, regular contractions of the prostate are needed or it gets lazy and won't have the strength to work. Picture the sperm cells just sitting there, literally rotting. More opportunity to morph, maybe change into cancerous cells. Nobody wants that. Typical, "Out with the old, in with the new." Agree, with the aging process, sex drive decreases. I'm betting the best is to "force" the issue every so often, as much as you can (weekly?).
Use it or lose it. I had a neuro physiology professor say that not having sex, or orgasams leads to decreased desire and ability to get off. So, keep the pipes clean! Actually, I believe that it hurts ones attitude more than one's physiology. I can't resist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VB1JlHWvRxc"]FGood Morning Vietnam - YouTube
My husband says when he needs to cum it's a very strong drive and can't be ignored. He says he can't think of anything else until after he cums. He cums into my mouth for me to swallow every morning. I hear there isn't actually much sperm in cum. That it's mostly water and other innocuous fillers. I find it to be very soothing going down my throat and in my tummy. My hubby is diabetic and his cum is usually thick and sweet, which I like very much. Salty is just okay. Watery is disappointing (and fortunately rare for him). I get a cum high after swallowing. He says it's probably placebo effect from being such an enthusiastic cum swallower. I think it's real.
