From the study I read it stated that testosterone levels were higher in the summer, but it never mentioned anything about sun exposure. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5057046/table/T0001/?report=objectonly

Is soy bad for Men? I have heard it decreases testosterone.... is that true Or just a myth

Question is in the title. Is it true, scientifically, that when you feel horny this is because of testosterone increase? Or testosterone increased subsequently after you became horny? And if its true - does it mean that you ought to feel horny(let's say to a real woman after succesful reboot)...

https://nutritionandmetabolism.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12986-019-0406-z To put simply: PMO > nullified androgen receptors > little to no T uptake > carnitine not present in skeletal muscle > fatty acids cannot be used as energy. Low T to E ratio is also bad for fat loss. There's...

Hello everyone, ive been doing this NF for around 403. I'm seeking to maxime my testosterone output, and ive heard that a cycle of one fap pero week is the best way to achive optimal testosterone levels. I workout, eat healthy and eat enough yet idk if my testosterone is going up, and ive heard...

Greetings I'm 21, college student and currently trying NoFap PMO in ordrer to cure my erectile disfunction. I started NO pmo in order to cure my mood, harm caused by masturbation overall... But as i naturally increase my exercice these secundary effects completely faded away to the point that i...

i’m 15. my addiction started when i was 11-12 and i’ve been doing it excessively. ive experienced most of the symptoms (low libido, low self esteem, weak reactions) it’s also seems like it has been changing my attraction even though i love women. i just don’t see them the same as when i first...

I have been taking 80mg of propranolol daily for two years, sometimes 160mg. Does this lower my testosterone? Or does that only happen short term?

I'm sure it's common knowledge for many that studies have shown dopamine from masturbation shuts off or 'fills the locks' of androgen receptors in our brain. (The studies are more so in mice and due to their nature, quite limited in humans, but mice & human's are biologically very similar). I...

Has probably been talked about thousands of times here im here to do a calculation and share my experience from a few streaks The average ejaculation is 3.5 grams of sperm,it is stated in many sources that Zinc is 3% of the whole thing,so lots of people think,well i guess we fine then we only...

im 20yo male, i want to transgender in the future, i have kinda feminine body, is it better to do nofap thing or to masturbate in terms of decreasing testosterone (i dont masturbate at porn im just doing it cause i heard that nofap increases testosterone and makes body more masculine)

Hi guys, I'm 37, I have a satisfying sex life but nonetheless I'm addicted to masturbation (not to porn, I occasionally use it but I can live without it with no problems). Normally, I masturbate every day, often twice a day. I have always known that compulsive masturbation is a way for me to...

I have seen some of the reviews of these products and some people are claiming these products do wonders if taken together. They are supposed to increase your testosterones and blood circulation and they are supposed to be containing only natural ingredients. Anyone (especially 30+ with PIED...

Social media is soft-core pornography nowadays. Personally one of my biggest triggers is opening the explorer page in Instagram. Modern media glorifies lust. The seductive photos intended to arouse people are one of the main reasons people keep visiting these social media platforms time and...

I've been doing lots of research in the last year due to my own trials with PMO. It became clearer to me how completely damaging fapping may be for the human body and brain. I'd read scientific studies about androgen receptors, and the endocrine system. Testimonies from people who'd experienced...

Ok, now I am in no way implying that NoFap is going to make you look like Brad Pitt after 90 days or whatever, but I, along with many other people believe that NoFap generally makes you more attractive. Whenever I relapse, my face looks more puffy and feels more oily/greasy, and about a day or...

Guys I just wanna know that in nofap we increase our semen to get change our lives and get rid of this addiction. But by increasing semen/testosterone our DHT will also increase bcuz of high level of testosterone and sht affect our hair follicles and we suffer from hair fall, someone said that u...

Hi all, Let's start with a little bit of background, I've been battling PMO for over a good year now. The first 6-8 months I've passed without any relapse, but also without any drastic changes. The only big change I've gone through is that my PIED is gone :) :) :). After this period I've...

Hello guys. Well, I'll explain what I mean by fake muscles (it's just my opinion, don't get me wrong) For me, testosterone injections and anabolics are a way to create fast, fake muscles without too much effort. I've seen guys swollen and bloated by these supplements that makes me think like...

I'm wondering is there a daily limit like reaching the limit of the absorption of protein in a day after which the body can not take/use more? Theoretically if you can lose x amount of testosterone suddenly (as in after rapsing), then it should also work in reverse and you could raise it to the...

I'm going to abstain from gluten for a while, starting from tomorrow. I guess that I should dedicate one paragraph to giving reasons why I'm doing this whilst trying to convince you doing the same, but I'll keep it short. Gluten can impede your intestines from absorbing the essential minerals...

I have been doing NoFap for 20 days and failed and now feel terrible. So my question is did I lost everything(like did my testorone is fully empty when you fail)? And how many days will i need to get my benefits again?

Hello guys, repeatedly have I noticed that abstinence from masturbation after week or two leads to shorter sleep cycles. Do you experience the same thing? Instead of 9.5 - 10 hours i regularly sleep 8 hours and even wake-up without alarm. Sometimes in less than 8 hours. And i feel perfectly...

Hello my name is Wessam I have been using porn for 22 years however my porn addiction was a problem and began to consume me by age 16 and I decided to quit porn by age 21 I have PIED and I was wondering when is it expected to see improvement in my erection and when do I completely recover and is...

I'm near to my 90 days without pmo. No porn, no masturbation, no sex... nothing. But... But i ate tons of raw almonds. Let me explain. I suffer a condition called pfs (post finasteride syndrome), something that occurs to guys who took finasteride for hair loss, which is a 5ar inhibitor. I do not...

Hello dear community, sadly i could not find any long term testo level obervations linked to on nofap. I read alot that the t-level spikes at around day 7, but what about the LONG run? I would like to see some 90+ days observation of the hormones as the highest i´ve found was ~16 days...

Hello everyone, i'm new here. I'll try to briefly tell my story and why i am here. Please, read the whole story to the end before drawing any conclusion. I've always been a creative guy, an artist, but even an insecure guy, insecure about the way i looked. Despite people telling me i looked...

We all know testosterone is what helps a little teenager to become a man. I made some researches and found out that women have some primordial instincts related to testosterone. They can sense if a man has high testosterone and it could attract them to him. 1- Do you agree with this theory? 2-...

Hi. 14 days ago I decided to stop porn and fapping and I'm starting to feel again, I feel anything again. My emotions are harder, sadness, happiness, anger... The thing is that in these days I've been dating a girl (nothing had happend yet) and when I think about her I want to fap, but I don not...

Hi guys this was my second attempt doing nofap my goal was 90 days and I did it successfully,I felt very good during nofap that wasn’t so hard I’m not addict or something like that,I did it to see if it really can help attract more women and helping with increasing testosterone/getting facial...

Hello everyone.About a week ago i had a worrying enough pain in my left testicle and abdominal (while overmasturbating for the past 2 days too..) I went to the doctor and was diagnosed with varicocele a couple days ago. The doctor didnt recommend me surgery. He said that sitting/standing too...

If you want to know the one single exercise that can boost your testosterone, growth hormone, and dopamine levels, all making you more athletic, more lean, and more confident, than look no further than sprinting. https://www.naturally-boost-testosterone.com/sprinting-and-testosterone/ Jogging...

Hey all, Long story short, day 28 hard mode. Since starting this, I’ve had amazing energy, been going to the gym twice a day for the past week and got below 20% body fat (17.8)! The last time I was this low had to be high school! I have super clear thinking, confidence and am just generally...

What differences have you seen between how you were before doing cold showers and how you are (after starting cold showers) now? I used to do cold shower but since it's winter time in India and for some reason in the North-East it's weirdly colder than how it used to be before, I temporarily...

So, it's been 4 months since I started NoFap. During the start, I felt very energetic and horny, and super confident. I was hitting the gym and seeing gains. Now, I feel... tired and lethargic. I don't have much of a sex drive. Libido is not that high. No morning wood. I still go to the gym, but...

I just got the results back from a saliva testosterone test. My results are: 84 pg/mL of free testosterone. I've been lifting weights for 6 years now, and I've been taking cold showers for a little over 1 year now. I am not on any medications. I don't do drugs. I don't drink alcohol (or soy). I...

Till Thursday last week, I was on a 102-day nofap streak. Towards the 3rd month of my streak, I began experiencing wet dreams almost every night. This started to gross me out. I also noticed that I began acting very aggressive and over dominant and was manspreading everywhere. I read a thread...

PREFACE: Ive devised a plan I think could be really efficient. I do this because repeatedly fighting off urges is admirable but for me, ultimately futile, often being alone in the house with not much social interaction. THE PLAN: Starting from day 0. Abstain from PMO totally until day 14...

So guys, I want to tell you other things that you might get fixed in the same time. The things you eat and that are bad for your health and for your sex drive. 1. Get rid of simple carbides like sugar, white flour. Sugar is like kerosine in your veins. You get a lot of power, that your body...

Part 1/4: Hello all fapstronauts! This long post (or novel rather) is dedicated to all of you out there who are: currently struggling with PMO-addiction, those of you who are getting control over it and to those of you who have more or less mastered it. I make absolutely no judgment based on...

Has anyone tried intermittent fasting ? I am using this way of eating since more than a month. It seems to be helpful in combatting the addiction. As I am addicted as well to sugar, when I managed to tame my cravings for sweets, I noticed that my sexual cravings are more manageable too. Like if...

I have officially been off porn for 12 days and it has been the best 12 days of my entire life. I am experiencing: -Unconditional happiness -Very fast muscle gain / fat loss -Complete loss of anxiety -Euphoria that I can physically feel -Non-stop energy & massive work capacity -Insane...

Hey guys, I hope that if you're reading this you're doing well and living your best possible life. So, I am on around day 28 of hard-mode and I think this has been my longest streak since early teenage years. Very happy to experience some of the famous benefits which I would ultimately describe...

I always wonder where creators get their ideas. So I was in my bed, minding my own business, trying to fight another urges. And I thought to myself, why testosterone is so unpopular in our modern society. Testosterone is the fuel of men, we waste it when we pmo, it could be the reason why we...

Let me tell you it has not been glorious. I have heard all those stories of people hooking up with girlfriends and having sex and stuff like that and that is just NOT the case with me. Mine has been more of a spiritual journey. It is significant because I have been using porn basically all of my...

Next time you think about relapsing have this picture in mind! By keeping your semen you grow your testosterone levels everyday!

I remember hearing after first joining NoFap about a hormonal high in terms of testosterone at around a week to ten days, and after this there was about a monthlong flatline period. After like 6 months when I started trying again, It was amazing and I was urge free for just under a week. Then...

Has anyone tried any supplements for increasing libido that actually worked? There are thousands out there and I don't know where to start. Ideally I would like to try 'testosterone boosters' which contain many types of natural supplements which may increase libido. Lots of the positive reviews...

I've started nofap not too long ago. And ive noticed an increase in pimples on my back/buttocks area. I hypothesize this might be due to an increase in testosterone maybe? Anyone have a similar experience? I could be way off and just have an acne issue now lol

Hello people. How has being your day? I've been wondering if this is actually true or a myth, is it true that after 7 days of NoFap, your testosterone levels spikes?

Just going to jump right in. I'm 25 and have been addicted to porn and masturbation since I was about 8. I have been in and out of sexual recovery for the past few years. I have tried everything with no success. Now it seems like I have momentum and would like to use Nofap to keep that...

One of the reasons for not quitting P and M that I stumbled upon on the internet is that after 7 days testosterone starts to fall not increase. Is this true can someone tell? I really want to to know how it works. Maybe it's a stupid question. I don't know if this is the right forum section to...

Not intending anyone to give up on no PMO but something has been sticking in my mind the last 2 days. For me and many others the worst effect of porn is that it has given me no sex drive and ED towards real girls now some might put this down to "desensitisation" but I'm not sure if this is...

As modern young men tend to masturbate quite often, depression is striking. As a lot of reboot logs already stated: Abstaining from masturbation relieves depression symptoms; makes you feel more energetic and more attracted to the preferred sex. Now it's also scientifically proven that...

Has anyone noticed that they seem to build muscle a lot faster on a NoFap streak? If it's not increased testosterone then what is it?

Hey guys, does anyone have much knowledge about fapping and androgen receptor depletion? Is it a myth or has there been evidence to back it up? Is it porn itself that causes it or orgasming or the combinatiom of the 2? Would wet dreams have the same sort of effect? Also does anyone know how like...

Hey Fapstronauts, there's been talk how fapping too much uses up androgen receptors therefore testosterone isn't being utilized properly. Do wetdreams have the same effect? I just cannot stop having them and I'm concerned it's setting back my receptor regeneration

Hey guys, I’m here again for the second time. When I first signed up I couldn’t believe some of the things I was reading, I honestly thought you were all deluded, but I’mhere again because I believe I was wrong. I’m 24 now and I want to start taking control. I feel like I should be able to...

Hello to eberyone: I masturbate since I'm 13 and so I didn't have wet dreams my hole life, so I have a few questions to them. I know that they don't count as a relapse because there are just natural, when you don't PMO. Beside it would be great to know more about them, so it Would be Great if...

Oh god i wish i could just turn back time and change this... *Guys beware especially ones who hit the gym and are conscious about their gains* So basically i was on a 30 day streak and it was going so well. I was experiencing tremendous amount of energy and confidence especially with girls . I...

Hi guys,this is my first post.After doing a 56 day streak I experienced all these superpowers.My limited involvement in medicine (6th year medical student) has led me to believe that all changes are just atributed to higher testosterone and not some magic pheromones or any weird theory. 1)No...

The question is pretty simple but I'll explain in deeper. There is a lot of science with many different interpretations going around out there. Like the 7 days testosterone spike or the androgen receptors reduction in rats and way more other stuff. But it basically leads to nothing and gives no...

I've been a member of NoFap for about 1 month now. Despite this short period of membership, I am no novice; I have been reading through forums here for about eight months. In reading through these forums, I have found that an interestingly high proportion of Fapstronauts who make it 30+ days...

Dont know why but am feeling soo high today.. I talked to a girl today with whom I was having sexting before.. since then don't know why but am feeling so confident but since then am feeling tremendous amount of desire to f*ck hard and really hard... each and every girl pass by me.. while...

Hello all! Male, 22yrs. Started my no PM journey on May 5th because of an incident where I had a hard time maintaining an erection while having sex. I wondered if P was impacting, so I decided to stop. I used to MO 4x a day average. Went to O’ing once every 3 weeks always with a girl. As I...

Is it true that obstaining from masterbation, sex, porn whatever increase testesterone or is it just a myth? Seen a few threads where people claim it's true. And being on day 56 I know my libido is a lot higher than when I started. Also is it true that when doing NoFap, you release more...

hi, i wanted to ask.... regarding the feeling of....'like you're able to conquer whatever problems life throws at you....' how can i feel like that more often? i occasionally feel like that, but not often. is it testosterone? (my blood test levels are fine) is it confidence? (does no fapping...

Anyone here use testosterone? I use it due to being very physical in the gym and living a physical culture. It increases sex drive quite a bit... trying to keep my mind off other women in public and women on the computer. Simply weight training increases my sex drive by at least 20% as well...

OK I know this is a small streak but I thought it would be interesting to note what happens after two weeks--I'll keep it short. • I have more time. I have more time and that means my productivity is higher. I've already had several good things happen in my career life and it doesn't seem to be...

Hi I just want to share with you a small experience i had, maybe what i gone to say depends on your lifestyle , health , strength or other factors , i was on my 8th day of nofap , and i had gym class , we should run 6 x 500 meters that's with different pace example ( Slow , normal , fast ...

Many men want higher testosterone, for example to improve performance in sports. Did other fapstronauts here notice an increase in testosterone? I got my testosterone value and it is above normal range. I have no value before nofap, so it could be that it was already high before. So has anyone...

I find them irritating. Despite having a good body shape, I have these embarrassing puffiness in my nipples almost all the time except when I'm in the shower. I'm scared. Help a brother out.

Hello, I have been reading lots of encouraging posts here and I hope I will get help here. My story: I was exposed to intense pornography and masturbation for 13years - (from 15 - 28years). I am 32 now. As a young boy, my system was extremely active. I had spontaneous erections everywhere...

What's the relationship between your veganism and your PMO goals? I'm vegetarian, off and on vegan. I'm celebit and a 420 head. One thing I've noticed is that less meat means less testosterone ... as does less PMO... so im also interested in ways the community interacts with the awareness of...

I have razed to the ground many bad habits cultivated into my character and design throughout my upbringing. Im 25. I began watching porn at 11 years old, before puberty. I masturbated 1-5 x a day for 9 years, starting at 13 years old, almost always with porn. In late 2016, I cut down to 4-10 x...

hey everyone. I've been away for quite a while but now I'm back and would like to share my thoughts. the first lesson I've learnt recently is that you should never ever keep on fapping when you relapse.you should get back on track and reset your counter as soon as possible.that was my mistake...

Yo, I have heard that the testosterone level of a man will increase after a week of PMO Abstinence. you are strenghter etc. but i also read that it will decrease after one week, the testosterone level will fall down again, so its that high like a guy who is consuming porn, masturbating etc...

Hey guys (and girls), I just wanted to post something on how I experience the whole NoFap challenge and what the benefits are. The first big benefit is overall energy and recovery. I workout and run 5 times a week. In the past, I always had to take it easy after a few days of training. My legs...

At the age of 20, I don't have a beard. Just a few hair on my chin. My skin all over my body also has less hair and I'm only 5 feet 7 inches tall. Also I get puffy nipples unless I am in a cold environment. And whenever I make a mistake, even a little one, I began cursing myself and I feel that...

usually when I get to around day 7 I notice a huge increase in energy and feel more masculine. I'm sure this is my testosterone levels increasing after several days of abstaining from frequent ejaculation and watching porn. Does anyone else feel this?

So, tipically I'm one of those dudes that has a baby beard, basically a 5th grade beard at 18 years old. But in the past 40 days of Nofap I saw HUGE BEARD GROWTH IMPROVEMENT. It grows like 4x faster as normal. Testosterone is at sky level. Body fat decreased by about 2-3 % I'd say, combined...

Hi Guys, there have been a few posts on nofap and hair loss on here. I just want give you a round of my experience from day 1-55. Here it is: · Day 1-6, no change · Day 6-42, testosterone/hair tingling · Day 42-55 (present), testosterone change/less hair tingling. From...

I've read a lot about other people's journeys and some of them give tips saying that I shouldn't think about girls in a sexual way, or that I shouldn't do this or shouldn't do that. (couldn't think of others at the moment) So do they say that because it releases dopamine or testosterone (one of...

Hey guys, I've been out for a while. I went through a bad phase of relapses, but I'm happy to say I'm back on the Right Path! I have a question: How does nofap benefit your test levels short and long term? Urges to PMO can be fought off, yes, but I've been getting stronger and stronger urges to...

I have tested low for testosterone and my doctor wants to start me on a gel supplement. Wondering how it might affect my struggle with PM? Will the urges be more difficult to control, or will my mood and confidence be improved so I won't want PM as much? Would appreciate hearing some other guys'...

I originally came to this website after watching a video (1) by the YouTube channel What I've Learned. I was most interested when a study (2) was presented showing the testosterone levels increasing after seven days of non-PMO. I'm astonished by just how much testosterone increases after day...

I am Currently on 4 Days Of No PMO i have edged twice and want to fully know the effects of edging and in particular what gets taken away when edging.

Hi guys as the title says I'm new to NoFap and really want to solve the issues I have. I've been watching porn and masturbating as early as 10 years old, I'm now 22 and for those that are wondering I'm male. Within the last year or so I have realized how much of a negative effect masturbation...

I will continue with abstaining from PM, but I have noticed something over the many months and my long streaks. It seems like I'm on a razors edge in my mood, all the testosterone flowing through my veins making me irritable with a feeling of physical strength radiating from my core. Sometimes...

It took me sometime to realize that its actually an addiction. I've been watching & collecting porn since 2000. I was 24yo & it was so much fun. Gradually high speed internet came in & it helped me fill number of big sized hdd one after another. Even i wasn't able to watch everything that i was...
