Not orgasm for a long period of time

Discussion in 'Abstinence, Retention, and Sexual Transmutation' started by Deleted Account, May 30, 2018.

  1. I was wondering if it is dangerous to not orgasm for a long period of time, like several months? Someone that has done that and can tell me how it is?
    And also, what do you do when thoughts or desires of PMO come up to your mind?

    For me i have found retaining for more than 3 months you will face many issues (good ones) you will start perceiving the world in a different way a more clear way .. not a way that is filtered in desires .. There are is no harm only great benefits and energy.. i advice you to start now.
     
  3. There are disagreements regarding this. Some say that we need to ejaculate frequently and if we don't we can develop prostate cancer, because all the toxins accumulate within prostate and ejaculation discharges them. Studies and data on this are also divided and contradictory. Personally I would say that you can go safely. Your body will discharge prostate through wet dreams and during urination. So nothing will accumulate. You can decrease the risk even further by exercising, eating healthy and staying away from other bad habits such as smoking.

    As far as urges I would a like to suggest you to look into mindfulness meditation. It has helped me personally tremendously to learn how to deal with urges. It takes a while to get good at it and notice results, so you need to be consistent with it, but once you do it's very powerful. It has been used by sages for thousands of years to deal with various issues of the mind. And in recent decades the science is also catching up to what ancient sages have know for centuries. Meditation these days are widely used as very effective tool by psychologists for treating addiction and by neurologists for supporting recovery of the brain. It is a great exercise for the brain the same way as jogging is great exercise for the body. Check out this Ted talk, it gives a good idea of what's it about when it comes to philosophy. As far as practical side of it there is this awesome smartphone app called Headspace for guided meditations to get you started.

    Its perfectly save..
    The longest streak i had was a few years back and i abstained from PMO for 1year and a few months. The body does need to ejeculate sometimes but if this is really neccassary it will happen through wet dreams. Developing prostate cancer etc because of not fapping is BS...

    When urges come go and do something. For me it helps to go out and socialize with family or friends. You can work on something, take a cold shower, read. You can do whatever, just don´t give into the boredom and end up fapping. I noticed that when i relapse i always have a choice not to do it. For me its the carelessness that comes when i abstained for a while. I simply don´t care anymore and have a hard time remembering why i am abstaining. You can also go in prayer or meditation, whatever floats your boat..

    The semen will either get out through wet dreams or reabsorbed in your body manking you more stronger and healthier. Healthy person will never have cancer, unless you smoke or any drug addict. If don't orgasm for too long, you may have orgasm( without ejaculation) while doing your favourite thing. I once had orgasm while watching my favourite action movie in theatre.

    I don't think it may somehow harm your health, may be in psychological aspect... I had almost the same problem with my ex-girlfriend but I think it was due to problems we had in our relationship. In some cases, I ejaculate some moments after an orgasm. Or sometimes I felt the intense pleasure of an orgasm but fail to ejaculate at all. I think the problem may also be in a partner.

    A 2003 Australian study claiming that frequent masturbation prevents prostate cancer got a huge amount of mention in the popular media, because it seemed to give medicine's blessing to masturbation, and it's still often cited for the same reason. However, the study's conclusions just haven't held up to replication. Subsequent studies have found a bewildering array of both positive and negative correlations between masturbation frequencies during various age ranges and the risk of prostate cancer late in life. Some even suggest that masturbating more during certain young ages might lower cancer risk at certain older ages but raise it at others. The trouble is that all of these studies are based on asking old men who do and don't have prostate cancer what were their masturbation frequencies at various younger ages, but their memories just aren't accurate enough for good science. Also, lower reported masturbation rates in many subjects might have been due to higher rates of other sexual outlets that also drained the prostate but exposed them to more infections, which are a known contributing factor to later prostate cancer risk. A 2016 article entitled Evidence for Masturbation and Prostate Cancer Risk: Do We Have a Verdict? compared and analyzed 16 previous studies. Google it if interested. Its conclusion is that "No universally accepted themes were identified across the study sample."

    There are groups of abstinent people both male and female such as monks, nuns, Catholic priests and Eastern ascetics. They tend to live long and healthy lives. While this may be due partly other factors, if being orgasm-free caused medical problems I don't believe they would live so long.

    You are right, they are basically the healthiest people on the planet with most of them reaching 90 plus age and no disease for a long time

  10. Yes. These examples do not cancel out positive or negative effects of not having frequent orgasms, but they are small compared to other influencing factors. So I would not use health as an argument pro or contra masturbation.

    Basically there are some researches on it that start to point out the negative effects of frequent orgasms. i can tell from my own experience that frequent ejaculations is not good for u
     
    EmmyB and (deleted member) like this.
  12. Okay. I've got two questions:
    Do you have links to those researches where I can read about it?
    What were your experiences like? Did you have bodily problems/deseases, or is it more about negative psychological effects? In my case, I did never register any negative health effects in both, having frequent and having none ejaculations.

    these are not really research, but it were experiences from both man and woman. And u can go reddit subforum and check the benefits those men who abstain in hard mode for longer than 100 days what benefits they got. Basically ED cured, more happy, less social anxiety.

    In my experience, i am more responsive, less anxiety, faster reflexes and faster thinking, less brainfog, more energy, better stamina etc. For the better stamina, before i stop pmo, even though i also work out it was never the same result as what i got now

    is it dangerous to not have a donut for a long time, ofcourse not, but the doctor says, I gotta eat a donut so I stay fat, you believe what you want, but the bears have a saying, if we really need release, We will fuck the trees!, so have the same mindset, if I feel my dick exploding, fuck the trees, but at the same time, when I was trying to get to day 1, my dick felt exploding, I thought I would die, but now I am beyond a day, I AM NOT DEAD, but there is 1rule, you can't pmo too, if you pmo and don't fap, you basically failed, and as religon said, yo uwill go to hell ;), and become kebab, so you choose
     
  18. @Teuthtobetold1, I read much of the information you´ve linked above. These are basically a huge compilation of experiences, positive experiences of semen retention and negative experiences with porn and masturbation. Okay so far.
    But a measurably longer lifetime cannot be explained through psychological well-being alone, therefore I´d expect impacts on physical health. They seem not to be given. Scientific research on this doesn´t point in any direction, as discussed above.
    This is not an argument against not orgasm for a long time.
    But I think effects on physical health shouldn´t be used as an pro argument, too, because research doesn´t yield this. To be honest.
    Why not use the positive experiences as pro arguments alone? I think, they are strong enough.

    This is because science in this aspect is still in its infancy stage, they discover some new effects everytime they do research. An example is the link between ED and porn, last time science don even know the effect. Only after a bunch of scientific articles come out that they know the effect

  20. Yes, that´s the way it goes.
    We shouldn´t use science as argument as long as the thesis is not proven.
