Do you know of the side effects of not releasing sperm regularly?<\/p>\n<p>According to a centuries-old Taoist belief, men need to practice controlled ejaculation frequency if they want to help boost their health, longevity, and strength. This means that men should still engage in sexual intercourse and other activities, but that they also should significantly limit the number of times they ejaculate as part of the session. If putting the reins on your ejaculation sounds a bit scary, let\u2019s take a closer look at this philosophy.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Why use controlled ejaculation frequency?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The reasoning behind controlled ejaculation frequency, according to Taoists, is that the body has a limited supply of primordial energy. A man\u2019s general lifespan, as well as his sexual lifespan, are determined by the lifestyle he lives and how quickly he uses up his energy. Certain lifestyle habits can replenish and strengthen that energy, and controlled ejaculation frequency is one of them.<\/p>\n<p>Basically, men want to increase as much as possible the amount of age-defying hormones that are secreted during sexual excitement while simultaneously reducing as much as possible the loss of semen and the related hormones through ejaculation. The retention of these substances can be reused by the body to increase strength.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/prostate.net\/articles\/9-surprising-facts-about-sperm-and-ejaculation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Related: 9 surprising facts about sperm and ejaculation<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Taoist philosophy also maintains that this practice allows men to maintain consistently high testosterone levels and libido, along with greater levels of semen and <a href=\"https:\/\/prostate.net\/articles\/do-you-have-strong-sperm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sperm<\/a>. Another reported benefit is that it strengthens the brain. Believers maintain that semen contains essential nutrients and hormones that are absorbed by the prostate. From there they enter the bloodstream and travel throughout the body, including the brain. It\u2019s a scientific fact that both cerebrospinal fluids and semen contain the same basic ingredients, therefore the idea that semen can nourish the brain is not farfetched.<\/p>\n<p>However, conventional Western medicine states that a man\u2019s supply of semen is naturally replenished soon after he ejaculates and therefore there is no need to practice controlled ejaculation frequency. A side note on this though is that athletic coaches typically ask their athletes to avoid ejaculation the same day prior to competition because it\u2019s been scientifically shown that testosterone levels decline immediately after ejaculation and athletic performance is negatively affected.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How often should men ejaculate?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>According to a well-known doctor of traditional Chinese medicine, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.itmonline.org\/arts\/sunsimiao.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sun Simiao<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>\u201cA man may attain health and longevity if he practices an ejaculation frequency of twice monthly or 24 times a year. If at the same time he pays careful attention to proper diet and exercise he will have a long healthy life.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Exactly how often men should ejaculate as part of sexual activity depends on the man. Generally, men should identify their own frequency by determining how strong and refreshed they feel after and between intercourse sessions. Among the recommendations from Taoists theorists are the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ejaculation only 20 to 30 percent of the time (2 or 3 times out of every 10 sessions)<\/li>\n<li>Ejaculation no more than 1 time every 20 days for men older than 50 and no more than once every 100 days for men older than 60<\/li>\n<li>Ejaculation based on the seasons: none during the winter, twice a month during summer and autumn, and no more than every 3 days during the spring<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Related: Understanding premature ejaculation<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Is less ejaculation healthy?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A 2003 study found that men who abstained from ejaculation for seven days showed a peak rise in serum testosterone of 145.7 percent of baseline. Scores of studies have demonstrated that low testosterone levels are associated with a variety of symptoms, including flagging libido, abdominal obesity, loss of muscle strength and tone, fatigue, and erectile dysfunction. Therefore, steps that help maintain or raise testosterone levels are probably desirable for many men and controlled ejaculation frequency may be one of those steps.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>References &amp; Article Sources<\/strong><\/h3>\n<blockquote>\n<ul>\n<li>Andrews L. <a href=\"https:\/\/liaandrews.wordpress.com\/2013\/11\/18\/conscious-ejaculation-a-key-to-mens-vitality\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Conscious ejaculation; a key to men\u2019s vitality<\/a>.
