Does science support No Nut November?! | A Urologist explains semen retention

[@YesIHaveManyProblemsThanks]

I find your videos very informative. I have a question, I'm a healthy guy, but six years ago i stopped feeling the intense pleasure associated with orgasms. I do ejaculate without trouble but their is no pleasure with it. I have never had sex with anyone so Im positive I dont have any stds. I talked to my doctor about it and he didnt care and had no interest in figuring out why this happened. Ive been reaching out to doctors on youtube trying to find an answer, If you have any ideas whats wrong with me I would love to know, Thank you.

I am practicing semen retention. For 3 months now. Please conduct a research on Indian Brahamachary method of living. Indian semen retention means no ejaculation which is no edging no self stimulation what so ever. I have felt the difference. It helps in dopamine detox. 7 days might be torturous but post that, it also has material difference: confidence, lift heavier weights at the gym, focused, and lot more. When you say these findings are not yet backed by modern science, I feel awkward why there is little to no study done on the same. Try it on for 14, 21, 28 56 and 84 days on different ethnicity (not race). Read some Indian literature. Who am I to say so? One who is experiencing the benefits manifest.

I think the biggest issue with nofap and NNN is that there is not nearly enough data on the subject either way. Personally I've had very interesting experiences with nofap and based on those experiences would recommend it to anyone. Obviously this is anecdotal evidence and may not be the same for everyone but I've tried and for me it works. The first week is always the toughest but once you get past that the mental clarity starts to set in. To be clear, nofap doesn't mean no ejaculating, it just means no masturbating to porn. The whole purpose of nofap is to redirect our sexual efforts towards engaging with another human being instead of an image on the screen.

The issue is not masturbation it’s porn. The surge in dopamine from porn is similar to hard drugs. After daily porn masturbation for decades our baseline level of dopamine drops significantly. Because of this, we begin to loose motivation and drive. After giving up porn, we will notice that we won’t want to masturbate everyday and our baseline levels of dopamine will return to normal. Giving us our much needed drive and motivation to live a healthy life.

For me personally no nut november taught me that I have a severe porn addiction. I start now without watching pornography. But I must say quitting smoking was actually easier for me than skipping porn. I struggled with quitting both at the same time and just kept not smoking and reduced (but no quit) my porn consumption. My first goal is to complete my first three smokefree Months and than go naFap. I think its more manageable. What do you guys think?

[@silvalinan4077]

I'm not surprised to come across someone else who is in the exact situation as me. The smoking and porn are so tied together than quitting one quits the other and that is what makes it so hard. We're fighting two demons at once without any training. Seems the best course of action is to take small steps and not get discouraged when there's a relapse. Accept that it's gonna happen and actually plan and allow for it then gradually move that post further back. Set a time when you're going to indulge and cheat. A few days in the future at first and then a few weeks a few months etc. Plan those relapses so you can stay in control of them. It's gonna happen, might as well be when you decide. And stick to it. I've been doing this with my diet and I'm at the point that I feel physically ill when I overdo the carbs and sugar. Last Saturday, my scheduled porn night, I felt uncomfortably out of breath and the cigarettes tasted awful and I think it's because I've been restricting to only one during week nights. My body is naturally rejecting the toxins.

[@TheScarletSlayer]

I can't say that I've ever or will ever smoke but I definitely faced a similar addiction for what seems like several years now that got so bad to the point where it felt like I was dieing inside my own mind. Now what saved me from this is going to sound dumb to some but it was an anime episode. It was just someone talking for 15 minutes that finally gave me some footing to push back against my problem. Course I did have some slips but then I realized perhaps if I want to be fair about a change in a situation then maybe instead of getting rid of it all together then to just reduce how often it happens. Currently I only indulge once every three weeks or so. But it's still nice to know about others going through a similar problem.

[@NazeMayo427]

I think the main issue is lack of self-control. Abstinence from occasional masturbating may not have the ‘mind-blowing’ affect many people claim it does, but the truth is that the vast majority of men who struggle with masturbating struggle with the deeper issue within themselves which is addiction to the dopamine and the feeling they get once they ejaculate. Addiction is harmful regardless of what you’re addicted to, and gaining control of one’s self and one’s mind and emotions is, in my opinion, the main goal. EDIT: added ‘lack of’.

Great video. It's nice to hear an expert say everything I've learned over a 2+ year abstinence from porn.

Being porn free for more than two years now has really restored my sexual health in relationships and with myself. I did start with a long period of abstinence from masturbation (about a year), but I've reincorporated that and feeling better than I have ever felt about my relationship with my body. NNN helps people see this and realize that, as stated, masturbation can be a healthy thing, and it's the porn to which we have associated it that is the real, serious problem.

[@amaliya.jovanovski]

Before I met my husband he was doing that nofap for a year or so amd he was in an excellent mental state. Since he stopped that, his mentality has weakened and feels that because of excessive sex he's losing the passion for sex. Should I encourage him to.nofap again?

Ejaculation and porn addiction are two different things. Addiction is never a good thing. Having the discipline to overcome an addiction is mentally beneficial. Physiologically though, semen retention and not ejaculating can’t be beneficial for the body. The male reproduction glands are like any other organ. If you don’t use it, it loses its strength and function. Great video Dr. Malik!

[@rahulrajoria7535]

Dr Malik missed one point. If you keep yourself physically active. Intense weight training, kegels combine with stretching and yoga. You are going to be a beast on another level. Try ejaculating before any exercise and your performance will drop. The main purpose of semen retention is to use your seed either for procreation or for your purpose.

[@kaushiksinha4673]

I am practicing semen retention. For 3 months now. Please conduct a research on Indian Brahamachary method of living. Indian semen retention means no ejaculation which is no edging no self stimulation what so ever. I have felt the difference. It helps in dopamine detox. 7 days might be torturous but post that, it also has material difference: confidence, lift heavier weights at the gym, focused, and lot more. When you say these findings are not yet backed by modern science, I feel awkward why there is little to no study done on the same. Try it on for 14, 21, 28 56 and 84 days on different ethnicity (not race). Read some Indian literature. Who am I to say so? One who is experiencing the benefits manifest.

After watching this video, I couldn’t help but think about the whole No Nut November phenomenon and whether it really holds any weight from a scientific standpoint. The idea of abstaining from something so natural, like masturbation, for an entire month seems a little counterintuitive, especially when you break down the facts presented here. The urologist's explanation about the effects of abstinence on semen production and testosterone levels was interesting. On one hand, it’s clear that there are some physiological responses to not releasing semen for a while, like temporary increases in testosterone or changes in seminal fluid composition. But on the other hand, the notion that abstaining for extended periods leads to any sort of major long-term health benefit seems a bit overblown. What really stood out to me is how some of these challenges, like 'No Nut November,' often get wrapped up in misconceptions and cultural stigmas around sexuality and self-control. The way some people talk about it, you’d think abstinence was the ultimate solution to achieving 'manliness' or 'discipline,' but as the urologist pointed out, there’s no real evidence to suggest that prolonged celibacy or restraint results in anything more than temporary physiological effects. For me, it’s also worth questioning the idea that there’s something inherently wrong or unhealthy about sexual release. The science shows that it’s pretty natural and healthy to engage in it regularly, so framing it as something that should be avoided or controlled for some kind of moral or physical benefit just doesn’t make sense. In the end, personal choice matters more than a collective challenge based on misconceptions about the body. It was an informative video, but I think it also raises more questions than answers. It’s all about balance, as with most things, and there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to these kinds of decisions. If anything, we should be more focused on being informed, questioning these cultural trends, and prioritizing our mental and physical well-being over arbitrary goals.

At 31 I can honestly say there is a huge difference in the way I feel when abstaining from specifically masturbating vs doing it even every few days. When I do it, I feel less anxiety and worry less about women problems. But the the cost is I have less motivation to do things, intrusive thoughts, and my eye contact and confidence suffers. Also without fail, if I do it right before I go to bed I wake up in a bad mood with traces of negative thoughts. When I abstain I have more overall confidence and ideas, but the trade off is my emotions feel much stronger and I'm more prone to over thinking or getting in my feelings.

I think a lot of this stuff is hyped up anyways, but if you're taking steps to improve yourself via working out/diet, and putting in extra hours at work etc etc and trying to form meaningful relationships then that's the most important thing.

If abstinence increases sensitivity to dopamine( which explains the test boost after abstinence), then doing it too often might cause a reduction in Dopamine receptor activity( emphasis on might.) If this is the case, this reduction in the dopamine receptor might lead to more prolactin production, thus reducing testosterone. Low dopamine can screw with alot of body functions. I don't think giving it up is good either. I just don't know of any bodily function that you can do to an infinitely high frequency without consequences. Eating is healthy, but we can take it to an unhealthy place.

You could find something to fill you up for less than a thousand calories and it'll have th opposite effect. Losing too much weight. I think there are a lot of factors at play in reality.

The reality is, a higher and higher source of revenue for porn sites comes from underage children aged 9-17, and that is money that goes to the big businesses and producers and it will still not touch the pockets of your run-of-the-mill exploited actors. The second you start thinking and talking about pornography out loud, you realize that it's all cons, I can't find a single pro. Even as a sporadic consumer you should be able to see it.

I do Semen Retention, and enjoy the benefits. Longest I've done is 60 days, every man should try it for at least 45 Days you won't regret it not one bit. It enhances you as a man in all aspects of life, mental, physical, emotional, financially and most importantly spiritual. I also fast, workout, and eat healthy which optimizes the benefits of semen retention.

[@outlawedmedia4336]

As a single guy, I always figured I had a porn addiction until I got a girlfriend who let me have sex. Suddenly I no longer had an interest in porn because I would much rather get my rocks off with my real life woman. When that relationship ended I went back to porn. So if you're single and watching porn, it's not the end of the world. Just make sure when you do find a sexual partner that they replace the porn watching. Oh yeah, and maybe hold on to them because going back to porn sucks!

[@charginginprogresss]

Nah. You need time for yourself sometimes. If you SO guilts you into stopping porn that's what I call a red flag. I bet next thing will be going to the toilet together to crap.

[@DriesDroefneus]

@@charginginprogresss Why are you switching it up to guilting and red flags? If you have such a good sexual relationship with a woman that you never even think about wanting to watch others fuck, then that's very positive and you should absolutely do everything to keep it that way.

[@golgothatheend]

I think of it as a challenge to take. It just shows one's willingness to do something that might be hard, to prove they can do something, which I believe can lead into better self esteem. I mean, heck, if you stopped mistreating for a month and you have a willpower to do so, imagine what can you accomplish with that sort of mental fortitude? Any other stuffs don't really mean anything to me. I've proved myself I can do it, and that's good enough for me. Oh, and if you're willing to participate next year, don't edge. And beware of turkey.
