Nine Out Of Ten

Nothing else seems to be wrong with him, but his penis is shorter and softer. Has his past history of frequent masturbation caught up with him? And more importantly, is there a cure? Read on, get the facts, and find out!

Case #: 1549

Concern：

I really need some advice from you. I am 36 years old and in very good health but now I don't perform the way I used to before. My penis has lost about an inch in length and it's no longer as hard as it used to be. Is masturbation a problem at all, because to some degree, I used to masturbate a lot of times? I would masturbate time after time after time. I know I have to avoid masturbation but could this be the reason behind everything?

Discussion：

Perfectionism, or the insistence of a total absence of flaws in every performance, can be a good motivation to try your best at everything you do. The downside is that if you are disappointed to the slightest degree with any aspect of what you've done, your perfectionism may wind up leaving you very depressed.

One Missing Part Ruins It All

In the same way, an otherwise healthy man who is dissatisfied with his erections might feel like he would trade a portion of the rest of his physical health for a stronger and harder erection.

You've already shown good character traits by addressing the possibility that it's your own fault, from your previous excessive masturbation. So, let's have a look at how erections are supposed to work, then try to figure out what you may have actually done to yours.

Go Back To The Beginning

Human males have no bones in their penises. Instead, they have to rely on hydraulic pressure: blood is forced into the corpus spongiosum and corpus cavernosua and held there by way of biological pressure valves. The many step-by-step biochemical and neurological processes do all the complicated work “behind the scenes”, so to speak, so you and your partner can concentrate on your pleasure. However, just because all of this work is going on without your conscious awareness, you should still pay close attention to what your body is telling you afterward.

While they are certainly capable of ejaculating multiple times in a single day, scientific research has shown that your genitals can only maintain a pace of one ejaculation every other day or so under normal circumstances without long-term consequences.

Aside from consuming resources to manufacture sperm, prostitic fluid and various hormones, ejaculation produces a small number of tiny leaks in the blood vessels that serve the tissues in your penis. Your body can heal these injuries easily, but only if you give it the time and resources necessary to do so; ejaculating multiple times each day means that not only does the number of wounds continue to increase, but the constantly-interrupted healing process leaves the blood-vessels increasing choked with scar tissue.

The leaks and accumulated scar tissue are part of why your erection has weakened and shrunk: your penis can't hold the blood where it needs to be, nor can the blood be held as long.

Repairing the Root

Getting your penis fully back into shape will mostly require giving your genitals time to repair the still-damaged tissues. To back in shape as quickly as possible, you should go without ejaculating for three solid weeks; at minimum, cut back to no more than once every three or four days.

While your penis is repairing itself, you should look into improving your diet. The two most important nutrients for repairing tissue are zinc and B-Complex vitamins. Properly prepared seafood, especially oysters, are excellent sources of both, but green leafy vegetables and wheat germ will also fill the bill nicely. Do your own research to find foods that appeal to you and increase your intake of these nutrients. A moderate exercise program, practiced on alternate days, will also help boost your natural testosterone levels, which will strengthen your erections and help get rid of toxins more quickly.

You should also consider taking an all-natural herbal supplement, designed to not only repair damage to the genitals but to enhance its size. (SEE: Herbal Formula for Penile Enlargement & Growth) It works mostly by improving blood circulation, which also helps restore the function of various glands and thereby adjusting your hormone levels back to a healthier balance.

Avoid the temptation to speed things up by making adjustments without your health-care provider's advice, and the results you seek will appear after patience and diligent effort. Good luck!
