Will too much jerking off affect fertility? The answer is yes, it will. The so-called “jerking off” refers to male masturbation, which in a narrow sense refers to the act of stroking the genitals with the hand to achieve sexual pleasure, libido satisfaction or ejaculation (in men), so that psychological satisfaction and masturbation is achieved. In a broad sense, any way of self and mutual stroking to stimulate the genitals and other sensitive parts for sexual pleasure and sexual satisfaction can be considered masturbation. Masturbation is a physical manifestation of adolescent maturity and a way to relieve the restlessness and anxiety caused by sexual tension. A proper masturbation can relieve and relax the sexual impulses and tensions of adolescence, and will not cause any harm to others or the body. However, if you masturbate excessively, it can be very harmful to your body and can even cause male infertility. When men are addicted to masturbation, the repeated act of masturbation will make sexual excitement abnormal, very easy to sexual impulses, frequent sexual impulses, frequent ejaculation, over time will induce genitourinary system diseases, chronic prostatitis caused by frequent urination, urinary end dripping white, lower abdomen and perineal discomfort, lumbar weakness, loss of libido, impotence, premature ejaculation, non-ejaculation, etc.; and also seriously affect concentration, memory, etc. It can also seriously affect concentration, memory and other symptoms such as insomnia, fatigue and weakness. In addition, if adolescents begin to masturbate during their developmental period, it can cause serious physical stunting and lead to short stature. Frequent masturbation over a long period of time not only causes physical problems, but also causes a serious mental burden. As a result of frequent ejaculation, it can cause a decrease in semen quality, a decrease in libido, and in some cases, an increase in the ejaculatory stimulation threshold, resulting in the inability to ejaculate during normal sexual intercourse, thus affecting fertility. In addition, frequent masturbation stimulation may also lead to a significant shortening of the ejaculation process, and even the condition may develop to the point that where sexual stimulation is encountered, one cannot help but ejaculate without masturbation. This kind of person will ejaculate as soon as he or she touches the other person after marriage, thus making it impossible to have sex and affecting fertility. It is especially evident that frequent masturbation not only harms the body and has an impact on fertility, but also has an impact on one’s work and studies, so if you are currently addicted to masturbation, it is best to do it in moderation!
