Why does masterbation make me MORE horny?

[Jiffylube854]

I masterbated 3x over the weekend, and then I was sooo horny on Monday. So I masterbated another 3 times. Now it is tuesday morning and I have like this constant hard on. I know when I don't masterbate much I'm not nearly as horny but somehow cumming gets the juices flowing where I want to do it again and again? Anyone explain this?

The teen aged male is a sperm machine. Spermatogenesis and the production of semen is an ongoing process and young men go through spells that they simply cannot get rid of enough. Besides, I understand it feels good!

So far so good. The frequency is all well within the range considered "normal".

What I find interesting is that you are "sooo horny" after each climax. This goes counter to how males generally respond--becoming drowsy and temporarily loosing their interest in sex. You seem to be "wired" differently, although if this is not a problem for you, I wouldn't fight it or change it except for the two reasons explained in the following Sticky post:

Boys and Masturbation

After a male of the species climaxes the brain releases a hormone called "Melatonin" that induces feelings of drowsiness and peacefulness. Question: Did this ever happen to you? Is this gung-ho response a recent occurrence?

Now it is Tuesday afternoon, how has your day gone so far? Has your erection actually been constant without any losses over the day? If so, this can be dangerous if an erection lasts over four hours. This is a condition known as "Priapism" and a person must see a doctor immediately!

I will presume that you are actually experiencing a lot of long lasting erections in close succession and not one long erection several hours long. This being the case, I know it is distracting, really bothersome and annoying, can be very uncomfortable or even hurt, and all these symptoms can keep you from concentrating on other things.

The fact that you are always horny may or may not be the result of this. Depending upon a person's sex drive, pent up level of daily stress, and/or desire for pleasure, it is not unusual to have the desire or need to have one, two, three, or more orgasms a day! What is important is to learn balance as explained in the article, above. Managing your needs for stress reduction vs. pure pleasure is something every boy must learn lest he become even more frustrated when he discovers he has already masturbated so many times that he has reached his body's limit that day and as a result must tolerate several hours of angst until his body can recover.

> I know when I don't masterbate much I'm not nearly as horny

This is an interesting conundrum. If you do not masturbate frequently you are not very horny, yet the more you do it the more you want to.... Is this an accurate assessment? If so, this makes me wonder why you simply stop masturbating the rest of the day even though there is that initial drive to do so? Can you provide more information on this?

I cannot explain what is going on, only that as a teen your hormones are often out of balance for awhile and as you age will eventually settle down. Learn to manage your orgasms and if they are not interfering with other daily activities and obligations--enjoy them.

Well dude, maybe you're anxious. I know when I'm super stressed, I can masturbate 7 or 8 times a day. It gets totally stupid (but in a good way, ya dig? )

That said, I'm finally slowing down... I used to whack it at least twice a day. Now, I can actually go a week without it. It's a nice change of pace!

Enjoy it while it lasts, there will come a day where you won't even want to beat off and then you'll think you're dead (or at least half way dead). It's days like that that you realize that you're old.

Some men just have a higher sex drive than others. Even in my forties I have masturbated 5 times in a single day. Sometimes I feel that the more sex I get the more I want. You have a special talent jiffylube. Like any talent you need to develope it

the fact of the matter is, when you ejaculate yer body is saying to itself. I am sexually active. I must produce more sperm.

Im pretty sure testosterone has something to do with that. So if you're spanking it a lot yer body thinks you're a ripe sex machine. be it solo or with someone else. Therefore it must produce more sperm. Your testosterone levels increase, with that increase comes more desire to have sex. or fight.

Im the same way and Im 24 some days I'll go like a week without doing anything. then i'll masturbate everyday for a month. sometimes/most times more than once or twice. if im lucky enough to have a woman i generally explain about my raging libido. most dig it.

But hey if yer still getting hard and stuff is still coming out, thumbs up! just gotta find a woman to show it to now

You know I have the same problem and I'm 22 and married. I don't believe it's left over teen hormones either since this is a pretty regular issue and my hormones are pretty steady.

What typically happens is my wife likes sex ~once a week, we then have sex after finishing (and sad to say but the first time around I'm a rather quick shot, maybe 10minutes ), I get more horny, I go into the other room and masturbate. After that I turn on porn and masturbate again. In a night this can go anywhere from 3-5 times after that if I'm still horny I feel the sensation screaming "masturbate" all night long. IIRC it's a gas that fills up your penis with very common compounds to laughing gas.

Anywho, sometimes we'll have sex all week (let me mention THIS IS RARE). Typically we will have sex once a week and then the next two days I'm raging, after that it fades away at an accelerated rate and I'm typically no longer interested. I can go like this, well for a long time with 0 interest.

I mean this is common and has been pretty steady like this for 4 years. I had the teenage hormons from 13 to ~18ish with a few interment spots after that (unexplainable random hard-ons). But I really do not get those at all anymore (aka I have no idea when the last was).

I wouldn't be worried unless it's something along the lines of what Doc said.

My partner is in his 20's, and still works away at himself almost daily, and still has more than enough drive to take care of me too. If you find that you're hornier after it, I'm jelous of whomever you end up with (well, I've got my own who's quite the same).

Among a lot of my female friends, they find that masturbation can make them much hornier too, making drowsiness in their partners an issue. Not mine! He's wired like you and keeps a smile on my face. Learn to control it moderately is my best advice.

Masturbation can only make your sex life better. You get the chance to try new things and really know how something feels before you do it someone else.

It’s also just healthy to think of yourself as a sexual being that does not depend on anyone else for your sexual power.

It’s also fun to talk about and/or share masturbation with your partner. It can be another form of intimacy…and then on the other hand there’s those times you just want to get off in a hurry and you can make that happen best.
