Semen retention is something you hear people talking about all the time, but some people agree with it, while others don’t.
This my personal experience with semen retention:
I have tested many different things but let’s start to why I wanted to try in the first place. I used to be a daily masturbator, and while it wasn’t so bad to the point of addiction where it would interfere with my daily life, I really started to think about a few things. Many people believe that porn in particular, and even masturbating can decrease confidence when talking to woman. Now I can see why people would think it is bullshit, and I would say it probably is for the average person. However, I think if you struggle with social skills, that it can definitely be beneficial.
Now for the physical effects: I notice a lot of changes when a week has gone by. I start to have more vivid dreams and lucid dreams. Before I continue, just know I’ve tested different things. Doing it every other day, every day, not doing for a certain amount of time, etc. I have proven to myself that dreaming becomes a bigger part of your sleep when you stop doing it. It also can improve sleep quality, although I find myself to already get great sleep on a nightly basis. Another thing is your libido. If you’re severely addicted, you probably will struggle keeping your hands out of your pants for the first week. You will also think about women a lot, and you will need other things going on in your life. Sexual energy is very powerful and I truly believe if you redirect your attention to your passions whether it be going to the gym, playing sports, making music, etc, that it can be very beneficial. You also will wake up with an erection every morning. Now some people don’t have this issue, but a lot of the time people that jerk off daily do have that issue. There is very minimal research on testosterone levels, but it is proven that at the one week mark you will get a slight boost, but levels will return to baseline shortly after. I do think tho that the libido increase does lead one to believe and feel like their testosterone is now elevated and more significant.
I have also noticed that every time I have relapsed, I get a severe headache afterwards, I feel tired, and very unmotivated. I feel like once you start you can’t go back. You will have the thought in the back of your head how it feels when you relapse. It’s not a matter of post nut clarity anymore, but all the other benefits you will get. Everything else people talk about like acne clearing, facial hair growth etc, that’s all very minimal and unproven. Those are solely based on genetics and test levels.
Now I don’t disagree with masturbation daily, but I do think porn is very harmful to the mind. You can really make masturbation a spiritual experience and less of a sin, if u do things differently. Some people have a strong mind that they can have hands free orgasms.
Last thing I wanna say is, it might be coincidental, but I always seem to attract a new woman into my life within a month. Now I have never had a girlfriend because I don’t want to commit and just other reasons I’m not gonna mention. I’m sure you guys understand. I’ve been with multiple women tho of course, and the longest I’ve gone not masturbating is right now I’m on a 3 month streak, but months back when I had a 1 month streak, I had some girl from school that I got with. And another time too when I had a 3 week streak. Might be coincidental but it’s pretty ironic.
Anyways, stay strong, go the gym, manifest, achieve your goals, and be faithful!
