I have been holding back my ejaculation for a year.

Men have different physiological needs from women. Usually, under external stimulation, the penis will become engorged with blood and erect, which is a manifestation of the desire to engage in sexual behavior. In the relationship between men and women, sometimes men choose to be tolerant. This situation is actually bad for men themselves. Holding back for too long may lead to sexual dysfunction, such as premature ejaculation. What will happen if you hold back for a year? Let's find out.

"Resisting ejaculation" generally refers to a man suddenly stopping sexual intercourse before ejaculation in order to prevent the ejaculation of semen. This is called "intermittent intercourse" in sexual medicine. This is quite common in daily life. Firstly, some people hope to prolong the duration of their sexual life through this method. Secondly, some people think that semen is very precious and ejaculating too much will harm the body.

In fact, "holding back ejaculation" is the greatest harm to the human body.

1. Retrograde ejaculation

From a medical point of view, semen can go two ways after it comes out of the seminal vesicle, one to the urethra and the other to the bladder. When a normal man ejaculates, due to nerve stimulation, the entrance to the bladder in the body will close due to the contraction of local muscle tissue and congestion of blood vessels, so that semen can be ejected from the urethra. However, if semen is held back for a long time, semen will be forced to change its route and rush backwards into the bladder, forming retrograde ejaculation, which is prone to urinary tract inflammation and may even induce premature ejaculation.

2. Prostatitis, even impotence

Normally, after ejaculation, the penis of a man will soon become soft. However, if you hold back on ejaculation, this process will be prolonged, and the sexual organs will be in a state of congestion for a long time. At this time, bacteria are likely to take advantage of the opportunity to enter, causing prostate inflammation, incomplete urination, and white turbid fluid often appearing at the urethra.

In addition, the sexual organs are in a state of congestion and swelling for a long time, which will not only increase the burden on the sexual nervous system and sexual organs, but also destroy their response ability. Over time, it will easily lead to impotence, weak erection, delayed erection, or even complete inability to get an erection.

3. Hematospermia

Normal semen color should be grayish white or slightly yellowish, but when men hold back ejaculation for a long time, blood in semen may appear. This is because the seminal vesicles and prostate glands continue to be congested and swollen, causing the capillaries on the walls of the seminal vesicles and prostate glands to dilate and rupture and bleed, resulting in "blood in semen".

Ejaculation does not affect "vitality"

There is a saying among the people that "one drop of semen is equal to ten drops of blood", and that semen is very precious and that excessive ejaculation will affect the body's "vitality". Some people hold back their semen for this reason. In fact, semen is not that precious.

Semen is composed of sperm and seminal plasma, and contains more than 90% water, and also contains a small amount of protein, sugar, inorganic salts, zinc and other trace elements. These can be fully supplemented through diet and normal metabolism of the human body.

In short, holding back ejaculation during sex is a very wrong practice, which is extremely detrimental to men's health. If you are not careful, you will end up losing more than you gain. If you just want to last longer, it is better to use a relatively thick condom to reduce the stimulation to the reproductive organs.
