I have heard that keeping semen inside our body for too long is harmful to health.
It is said that: “a fair ‘replacement’ of cells is obtained with an ejaculation every two days and 20 per month are even better, as established in a research presented some time ago at European Congress of Urology”… Furthermore, it is said that there are negative effects like prostate problems erectile dysfunction and mental issues.
Just asking because I’m on 13 days streak in hard mode… My main goal is at least 300 days (divided in 20, 40, 66, 90, 100, 120, 150, 200, 250 sub-goals) to totally reboot my body and my mind to go and get a girlfriend to have again a normal, regular and empathic sex life, without never ever again PMO and compulsive masturbation, edging and all that bullshit like that (I lost some weeks ago my girlfriend because she thought that I was a pervert and freaky guy) . So you know… I’m so, so determined to reach 300 days in hard mode, and knowing myself I’ll reach that milestone, and I don’t want to have negative effects to my prostate or erectile dysfunction after that long period of time.
Yes , So does urine and faeces. They get excreted from our body. Similarly old semen get excreted through nightfall.
There is a contradictory research telling that masturbation can lead to reduction of risk of prostate cancer by 20 percent. If you really scared of the having the risk off additional 20 percent risk of prostate cancer by practicing no fap , Then I suggest you have have 8 - 10 almonds a day.
It is proven to prevent the risk of having a cancer by 60 percent.
I don’t know if semen retention or nofap causes any of these problems. Even if it caused such problems , i would rather live a short life than living a long life with regret each time i masturbate.
Coming to the point i haven’t made 100 200 days streak but i have gone to 60 days and all i can say those 60 helped me build discipline which is why im not procastinating anymore.
except from withdrawl symptoms i have seen no negative impact of semen retention.
I am going deeper on this topic, just informing thorough the net. I have found that there are tons of benefits to nofap, few debatable negative effects.
I have found, as far as nofap related mental issues are concerned, the problem ain’t creates when you practice nofap for a month or more and then fall into masturbation, various mental compulsive mechanisms are created which lead to masturbating many times and recovering the positive series of days without masturbating is very difficult .
Meanwhile mental problems are created if this mechanism is repeated over the years, one becomes almost obsessed with PMO as if reaching 30 days without masturbating brings as a reward just masturbate .
WHAT DO YOU THINK AS MY PATH TO PMO FREEDOM LIKE THIS:
- REACHING MY ULTIME MILESTONE 300 DAYS ( through the passing targets 20, 40, 66, 90, 100, 120, 150, 200, 250), in HARD MODE NOFAP.
Then I think I will be totally reboot (both mentally and physically) and from that point I will genuinly try to find a partner so I can experience what love really means (I had a lot of relationships but I never fall in love genuinely with a girl, let’s say that I always fell in love with the “sexualised image and sexual fulfillment that girls gave me”)
I dont agree with you @The_Rising_One
Dont compare semen with urine and faeces. According to ayurveda, excessive sperms can travel upto brain and reside there to nourish our brain.
Prostate cancer is rubbish 
Dont listen to western science. If possible collect Authenticated Ayurvedic Books from any library.
Some might disagree with me or some might agree with me here.
Well I just telling zeus not to worry about sperm getting over accumulated
I agree with u but partially. At the end of spermatogenesis cycle nearly 60 percent of sperms are mobile which are capable of reproduction. Those non ejaculated mobile sperms will nourish the brain. The remaining will either get mixed with urine or as nightfall
That’s why I used the word " Contradictory " there.
Literally misguided sperms come out during nightfall 
I really didnot see the word ‘contradictory’
If a person practices no fap for 12 continuous years he will get special nerve in the mind called medha Nadi which leads to tremendous memory and Concentration
100% agrees with you brother. Hats off to you. 
So guys, what you mean when you say that sperm goes to the brain? It’s like it’s a hormone thing? Can you give me a cue or a little explanation about this or what argument I have to go to search for inform me about this topic… Because it’s the first time I’ve heard of it, I don’t know anything about it.
Swami Vivekananda also wrote about this. He was a life long Brahmachari
Nah. The sexual energy doesn’t flow downward to the genitalia before. Earlier I wouldn’t have believed such stuff. But recently I found that the moment I stopped doing exercise for 2 weeks due to my ill health, Sexual thoughts started popping into my mind . The sexual energy is such a big fuel that in order to prevent it from flowing down you ought to do some physical work to spend that energy. And as of going up, the yogis are able to do that.
Your body is amazing it can do things that you think is not possible,im a believer in transmuting sexual energy into something more productive.Don’t listen to these prostate cancer theories, strict Muslims and monks you could argue live the longest lives with little to no health issues. The best thing to do is just let yourself have wet dreams it’s a good way to let your body release what needs to. Dont give your mind a excuse to give in for some health issues you have a great chance of not getting just to set yourself up for failure and relapse. Healthy diet and body is far more better for you than “Wanking for prostate health”
Speaking of wet dreams/nocturnal emissions, I have them from time to time, but it’s possible that when I wake up in the morning I feel like tired as if I masturbated? It is not a natural mechanism of the body?
I’m the only one in this situation?
Maybe because in the past I masturbated even 3/4 times a day, maybe I’m in sperm “debt” so every time a wet dream happens to me my body can’t handle it.
Don’t give much thought to such things. Do you wonder how much stronger you feel after having food? Most of us don’t. Nofap should be as normal and as inculcated in your routine as brushing bathing dining pooping, the things which we do even without giving a thought.
I genuinely agree with you man… Now I’m on 14 days streak, I had a lot of urges but I always took at least 2 minutes of conscious deep breaths and urges are gone. I feel more energetic, I’m training about 14 days per month… So much positive things are changing.
I can’t wait for that day to come where PMO will no longer exist and nofap will be an easy and automatic routine
According to Ancient Ayurveda, remaining sperms starts to move towards brain to nourish the brain and provide good health , memory and concentration ability. You must have heard of the fact that nofap provides super powers. Ayurveda agrees with that. Ayurveda says unbroken celibacy ( Akhand Brahmacharya ) provides Godlike power like God of thunder ( Indra or whosoever you believe as your God.)
Are any Indian here agree with me ?
If sperms are misguided by sexual energy and thought , they will start to flow downward
When they flow downward : 
During intercourse :
This is not a misguided process. Under ideal condition, sperms should flow downward only for procreation during intercourse only. We need it for reproduction or procreation.
While masturbation :
Sperms are misguided in this process to flow downward. Because of our environment and society it is difficult to control the habit. Also misguided by pornographic material.
During nocturnal emission :
It is natural to some extent. It is not counted as a relapse.
You must have heard of the phrase sexual transmutation . It is nothing but redirecting the flow of sperms to brain. It can be used for productivity and spirituality.
Yeah i actually understand your point, but i reckon its all in your head because your so determined to no ejaculate that you feel some type of worry or guilt that you have failed.Try waking up with a attitude of that you only had a wet-dream because you havent been giving into your habits or dirty mind, and be grateful that your body is actually functioning as a normal male should.
I agreed with you.!!!
