Why does your erection quality improve if we don't masturbate for some days?

The whole arousal process is tied with the brain.

I would say regular M just gets boring so your brain isn’t as engaged so doesn’t send as strong a signal as it might. Desensitisation is the technical term I think, and this is what leads to escalation and seeking novelty.

I would strongly recommend checking out www.yourbrainonporn.com It has lots of interesting articles and peer reviewed studies if you wanna find out more about the actual physical brain changes that occur

 

To be honest i have no clue,but i will try to guess.

Masturbation is addictive,so if you do it everyday you will just do it to do it.
If you do it once a week or even on longer time,because you retain your sexual energy from M so long you will have better erections.

 

I’m no expert but I think it tends to rewire yourself to a real person. Instead of jacking off to a video the brain starts to make you imagine real sexual scenarios with a person.

 

This is a good topic. Anyone else have other guesses? Why is dopamine involved in concentration and how?

 

Some say it's desensitization. Kung Fu grip not good. The less we do something less we are more sensitive to it.

Also arousal is heightened in the absence.

 

I think some good answers so far. For me I think because when we masturbate we become satiated sexually and because porn always gets us back in the mood almost immediately it compounds this. So we don't get great erections when wanking to porn over long periods of time. So, when we stop, this returns to our normal attraction/arousal levels. Thus better erections. It also explains why some who are very very deep into porn addiction take a lot longer to reboot than guys who only consider their addiction to be more occasional.

 

Yeah I agree with all the above posters.
I also wanna add this...
You know that saying... "give yourself enough time to miss me?"
That best friend that lives near you, who you always hang out with... After a while you kind of take their company for granted. You dont have to wear your best clothes or shower every time you see them.

But... when that friend from way back when flies into town, you shower, put on your best cologne, you've got the whole day planned, with dinner on you; hey, you might even buy them a little gift, because it's just been so. long.

To me, that's like my erections without pmo. He brings his best when he knows it's been a while lol.

 

The only time I get erections in when I’m on call w my girlfriend or sexting w my girlfriend I think it tends to rewire your mind more towards a person rather than a screen or anyone else. When we M to P our brain is used to only being sensitive to our hands and the video/picture we are seeing on the screen. When it’s time for the real act the brain is like what now?

 

Beautifully said my dude, totally agreed.

 

Makes perfect sense to me!

 

The things are not as straight as you think they are with brain. Brain associates erections with porn due to long usages of porn which is eventually an addiction. So now instead of erections associated with real life sex or girls.. your brain is now on virtual sex and girls. So when you stop pmo, the brain doesn't get what it needs for erections and the paths inside brain for erect with real life sex and girls is weak due to long term virtual indulging. So when you get on nofap streak...the porn pathways has to weaken first and already the real life sex and girls erects are also weak. So guess what obviously the erects strength reduce due to weak pathways. Weak pathways means the brain triggering erections will be also unreliably weak. So with long time on nofap streak the real life path ways gets stronger and pmo pathways get weaker. While all this process is going on your erection will be weak. But once your brain recovers to its natural pathways...you will be having your erections strong again.
