Want to start a routine but I don't masturbate

[duststorm]

Hey guys, I've done a few weeks of basic jelqs and such in the past and I want to start up again but I have some concerns.

I haven't masturbated in 70+ days and I am not sure if it will be safe teasing my cock in such a way without providing release. I have wet dreams maybe once a week, but other than that I don't plan on ejaculating for 120 days or so total.

Any ideas about how this may effect me negatively? Jelqing and other routines seem like masturbation without release, and I know it's not recommended to ejaculate after sessions, but what if I don't do it at all?

Please help. Age 23.

Not masturbating in 70+ days? That's really bad for your prostate among other things..

unless there is religous reasons why your not, it's healthy to masterbate from time to time.

even if your not permited to masterbate, it doesn't have to be to fantasy (main reason why religon forbids it)
to date, i have never had any issues doing jelq's. therse been no risk of it with me, if you have PE issues, we have a board for that to can can try to help.

Masterbation is healthy. I'm not just saying that. It can literally protect you against disease. Especially now is your twenties, it's the most important time.

Benefits of Masturbation

Masturbation Protects against Prostate Cancer.

Men who masturbate more than 5 times a week in their 20's are 33%
less likely to develop the most aggressive form of prostate cancer later in
life. A 2003 study by Graham Giles at the Cancer Council of Victoria in
Melbourne Australia found that the ejaculate helps to "flush" or rid the
male body of carcinogens.

Bascially, you need to get your rocks off if you want to live!

Didn't want this to turn into a masturbation debate. There are many benefits to semen retention and not looking at porn. Plus I get release through wet dreams on average every 10 days.

I just want to know if anyone thinks it's bad to practice PE without ejaculating at all. Will my balls want to explode from the build-up?

Thanks!

No I don't think so I'm afraid. PE becomes exercise and the sexual turn on component disappears. You won't get blue balls from normal PE, except maybe from edging/ballooning.

[duststorm]

I don't plan on edging, but I remember when I first joined up last year there were talks of some people having ED from this. So I guess what I'm really worried about is whether the chances of ED increases if you don't masturbate regularly like most people do? Were there anymore reports of ED from doing PE, is it fairly common or...?

[XitemeM]

whether the chances of ED increases if you don't masturbate regularly

I think the chances might be slightly higher yes, unless you have many naturally occuring eretions. Use it or lose it kind of thing. I think PE would be a good thing if one didn't masturbate. It means your penis still gets exercise.

Were there anymore reports of ED from doing PE?

Yes there would have been for sure. There's always a few who say PE broke their penis. They don't seem to last long on here, but I could be wrong. I don't often look at the ED/injury sub-forum that much. A lot of injuries would have been prevented if the advice in the Safety First thread was headed. There's a few other links on safety in the START HERE thread.

Religion or no religion, it's not certainly healthy to go for long periods without ejaculating. Doesn't matter whether it's through masturbation or sex.

Can I ask why the OP is doing this? You're 23, you should be jerking it every hour God sends.
