When males consistently masturbate...

For me jacking off seems to be something that is built up, or the negative results anyway. Like if I make sure not to cum 3 days in a row I'm feelin' pretty good and can recover pretty quickly. However, if I cum 3 times or more within a 3 day time span my focus starts to wane, even if I get the same amount of sleep I'm still tired, etc. The best schedule I've found is cum one or two days in a row, then break day (more break days are always better up to 7 which is the peak of testosterone then use it or lose it) and then do whatever.

There are beliefs structured around how men's sperm is their essence/chi/etc. and how releasing it makes you weaker for a time. I think this is why systems such as Tantric Yoga and other systems were designed so that the pleasures of sex could be enjoyed without the loss of self.

Anyway, my experience with jacking off has been that early on I measured just for fun (way way back when) and was about 6.5" and nary a girth. However over time, probably like 1 or 2 years after I discovered masturbation and was all into it, everyday any available time (you know the drill) I noticed the girth increased and the length shrank a bit. I ended up around 5.5" - 6" length depending on the day and how much I rested in between (which then was like nothing) but had a noticable girth increase, but was still sub-par. I have also heard stories of people sent to insane asylums who would constantly play with themselves and had massive members. So I guess it's not so much that you're playing with yourself, but how you're playing with yourself. Good luck!

It will casue a decrease in testosterone, and lower your sperm count, that is scientific fact.

Through trial and error, I notice smaller penis and balls if I am masturbabting to much.

I dont agree with this.
IMHO ejaculating alot in the week will not help, but wanking kinda like in the edgeing manner [to the brink] should help your test.

Wank as much you like guys, but try holding off the ejaculation cos I feel thats what hinders the test levels if it does anyways, and sperm count which I cant say have heard before.
Wanking on a reguler basis and doing so to the edge and than stopping, leaving it at that should help.

I know a few guys at my gym who say they jack off 3-4 times a day. They are all strong as a bull and all very big. I have NEVER read or heard in any bio class that masturbation is harmful. I too would like to see the scientific proof that some guys say is out there that mast. decreases your test. I have heard just the opposite - that releasing is very beneficial to the body and keeps you healthy. I do not think 5-6 times a week is all that bad. hehe
(seriously though)

there doesn't seem to be any logical reason that masturbation should affect your size...

can someone explain that to me?

actually... jacking off can lower your stress, and lower stress means higher testosterone levels

There are many myths about what happens if you masturbate "too much." The fact of the matter is that there is no set amount of masturbation that constitutes too much. However I will say that someone who feels compelled to do a mandatory masturbation session everyday may want to take a step back and look at the road they're heading down.

Being in a state of arousal releases chemicals into your brain which is why you enjoy being aroused and thusly masturbating. However it is possible for people to become essentially addicted to these chemicals and fall into a horrible habit where they depend on masturbation in the same way an alcoholic is convinced that they must have alcohol in order to be happy.

However masturbation does not have a dramatic effect on your testosterone level, as is commonly believed. As a matter of fact there is a very minimal amount of testosterone contained in your semen. You're more likely to suffer from zinc deprivation from constant masturbation then you are plunging testosterone levels, as there is considerably more zinc contained in your ejaculate then there is testosterone.

I also don't believe that it results in a decrease in penis or testicle size. It's actually been argued that frequent masturbation causes an enlargement in the testicles as the body feels compelled to produce more sperm due to the frequent "releases." And as for the loss in penis size, it is known as the refractory period. It's not a permanent decrease in size, it's merely your bodies way of allowing the penis time to recover from the stress that it endures during any sexual activity that utlimately ends in orgasm. The cells of the penis are engorged with blood while your penis is erect, and after you orgasm and the chemicals released into your brain are again regulated then your body draws the blood away from your penis to allow it to recuperate...

Masturbation doesn't affect Penis Enlargement, however it will affect your sex drive and can impede on other areas of your life. If you feel the need to masturbate, do so. Just try to keep the frequency of your masturbation to a minimal so as to avoid becomming hooked to the chemicals associated with arousal.

Does it shrink their penis or balls?

Is masturbating constantly really healthy?

it depends how much you constantly masterbate for.myself i masterbated way to much for a period of years and eventually i was unable to get an erection,and my penis shrivled up,thats why i first turned to pe.to much masterbating does shrink your penis and balls i'm a prime example,but it occurs over a long period of time.

But personally I believe ejaculating minimally is best for optimal energy to pursue as many goals as you can. But everyone's perception is different.

Too much of anything is bad

All things in moderation! You are right that any joy can become a nightmare if not kept in check. I enjoy many things in my life that if I let go without discipline would become terrible. I try to get this through to men who drink alcohol, drinking is a privilege but if you do not respect the privilege you lose it. I have a glass of wine every night and it feels great every night. I know that if I increased this I would end up dealing with tolerance and eventually ruin any joy I get from it. Masturbation is no different, it feels great and should be kept to a limit, going past this limit will cause the same addictive nature as any other drug.

Also I think masterbating without cumming is great for girth.

Edging is a great way to enlarge and to control ejaculation. It is also a great way to cement and maintain size.

I do it everyday

I try my best NOT to get a daily jerk in but I usually fail. I mean if my lady wanted to have sex everyday I would probably stop jerking daily. We get it in once or twice a week now mostly because I'm busy or lazy and the rest are jerk days. I guess everything gets old after a while except for the release.

Has that ever caused you to cum faster when you have sex? I would think your penis would be dying to explode when it gets the chance if you keep teasing it like that. I had sex Sunday and didn't cum then I had sex Monday and came fast

I like to masturbate or have sex then do a hanging session after.It hadn't been proven yet but I think one day people will see it helps with gains.I don't do it before every session tho but I at least try to do it twice a week.
It feels way more pliable after a orgasm.

I think that the best time for length work is directly after orgasm, this is when the penis is in a state of complete fatigue and has little choice but to take up the weight and grow. The penis feels so much more pliable and malleable when we stretch after orgasm. It also holds the elongation much longer than any other time. It has been long proven that fatigue is a key player in making length gains but the idea of doing length after orgasm is relatively new, within the last 5 years.

I always love when people have some strangely thought up idea of what is correct FOR EVERYONE. I like jerking off. I do it not at all or up to 3 times a day depending on my stress level. When I was younger I sometimes did it 7 times a day.

There are things that could certainly be much worse for your dick. Drinking, smoking pot, smoking cigarettes. I'm not going to tell you how to handle your life.

Oh yeah, this could be bad for your cock too: http://i.imgur.com/6BuXD.gif

But the real goal is find the sparkle uterus: http://www.autostraddle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/ZfvXW.gif

I like to jelq and stretch after jerking off. I've been doing that for as long as I've been doing PE. Since my join date is 2006, I think I started in 2004.

I will continue to pop one then hang and hopefully these gains continue.I think this technique will help people with big girth make better length gains.

Good point, I know what works for me does not always work for others, I think the idea here is to put our own thoughts out and compare them to others to try to make better decisions. The other part is sometimes what we believe to be good can sometimes change, this is a natural thing and it is how we build our character. There are many things I did in my past that I could and would not do again because my perspectives in life have changed, but again much of who I am has been created through my involvement here.
