Is this true?

[I_Wuz_Here]

Is it true that if you don't ejaculate for a long period of time that you will be more horny when it's time to have fun and you will ejaculate more? I always wondered if this was true or just a myth.
Thanks.

well from my experience with my husband, if we don't have sex for a week or so, his load is much bigger

Maybe yes or maybe no. When a male goes a long time without ejaculating, most of the sperm and semen is reabsorbed into the body. Most men do report that they ejaculate faster but the volume of the ejaculate depends upon the efficiency of the body in reabsorbing.

My hubby told me that if he does not ejaculate or mastrubate or have sex for a week or more, it starts having tendency to get erected by itself in morning or after a nice sleep.
Also, it is a fact that after a long break, during first intercource or handjob, or blowjob, the ejaculation is faster and more in quantity. But when the frequency is more, the ejaculation is slower and less in quantity.
Also, it is a fact that after a long break, he can do more number of sex acts than the other situatuation.
A good rest is necessary if you want to have good sex. We normally enjoy sex in morning early hours. Especially because we both do job and its hot conditions in India. Early morning, we get a bit of rest and climate gets cool.
This is what I have observed with my hubby. Our members can share their observations or contradictions!

I agree with Dr Brandye. After some period, males cannot preserve their semen or sperms. Either it gets ejaculated by itself , or they have wet dreams, or they mastrubate or they have sex. Else it get reabsorbed.
I want to ask Dr. Brandye one thing.
SEMEN IS RICH IN ALL PROTINS , VITAMINS ETC. IF A PERSON IS BACHELOR OR DOES NOT HAVE SEX FOR LONG , VERY LONG TIME, HIS SEMEN MAY GET REABSORBED. DOES THIS MEAN THAT HE STAYS MORE HEALTHY COMPARED TO OTHERS. BECAUSE HE DOES NOT WASTE HIS ASSETS.

[Brandye]

Over the history of humankind there have been various reasons believed to make stronger and healthier from abstaining from sex. None of them have ever been medically sustained.

You are correct in that semen is rich in protein and a variety of nutrients. This is to sustain the sperm and give them a good start. The amount that would be reabsorbed into the man's body from not ejaculating is too small to make any real difference. Many of them break down and become other innocuous compounds before they can be reabsorbed. Waste your assets, guys, it makes no difference.

Then why is it that in some sports events, men are not allowed to take their wives to stay at hotel when the sport event is on.

[Brandye]

That is up to the manager or coach. There is no medical reason. There may be social distractions that are considered.

Thanks for the help everyone.

It's always been my understanding that abstaining for three days builds the biggest release (physically and mentally). For example, I remember going to volunteer for a contraceptive study, I was asked to refrain from masturbating for three days before the test.

As far as football goes, I think most coaches have a "Saturday night" rule - no sex with the wife the night before the game. (And I heard of one who had a "Wednesday night" rule.) Of course, that theory was refuted by Joe Namath, who picked up a girl the night before Super Bowl III, and went on the next day to beat the Colts.
