Does masturbating lower testosterone? I think it does but in another post there are mixed opinions.
if i had a nickel everytime someone asked this questions i'd be rich
edit: what makes you think it lowers test?
if i had a nickel every time i heard this one i'd know one retard.
All sorts of myths exist around masturbation, most of which were created by religious banter and cultural historical beliefs, and not by true scientific facts and research. To answer your question more specifically, masturbation in fact does not affect significantly the amount of testosterone your body produces. The level of testosterone in your body does not change much over the course of days or months and is something that your body auto-regulates through your pituitary gland, a structure at the base of your brain.
took one second to find that with google

I think it lowers testosterone because you aren't as sexually driven afterwords. Someone with a higher sex drive has more hormones including testosterone. In males at least.
^Lmfao ^
i pick yes for the lols
if anything it would raise it
but the answer is NO
what's with masturbation threads? just beat it if you want to and if not don't. fukk
i swear they need to make a sticky about this..
it does not lower test at all.
you're not blasting test out of your bird .... just sugars proteins and sperm

LMFAO. ARE YOU JOKING ME SON?
That is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. You have a lower sex drive after you fap and you have lower testosterone. What a load of ****.
strong lulz
It lowers it immediatly but then it raises it within
Like 20 min so working out after a fap would probably
Give you an exra boost

WRONG! It makes your hands sticky and it's harder to move the weights around.
strong sarcasm.
Does not lower your testosterone levels, but it does reduce the risk of prostate cancer.
No. The only way sex will effect your testosterone & athletic performance is if you aren't getting enough sleep. Women seem to have an effect of messing up our sleep schedules. :)
Whack away. You're not going to get weaker.
First of all, shut up.
Second, having an orgasm causes prolactin to be released, an orgasm from sex causes 400% more than masturbation....
Third, you can google prolactin.
i seriously have an obsession with masturbating post workout.
Thankyou all for your input. I guess I can whack it with no consequences.
This is posted every single day, holy ****. It wont do anything close to noticable, keep jacking off and don't worry about it, ****.
If your worried about losing test through ejaculation just eat whatever comes out during ejaculation and your test levels will be replenished.
Known fact proven by Einteins theory of reletivity.
Masturbating does not lower test.

wow genius right here... it doesn't matter about whats comes out
it has to do with your hormones, of course theres going to be
an effect on your hormones when you rub one out,
you learn this **** in biology, why does everyone have
to make such a big deal about it, if you think it'll effect your gains
don't do it as much
test is lowerd but levels go up to normal a few hours later, so ive heard from a guy that knows his ****
so it really doesn't effect you that much, if that is true
saw a special on it.. and sex had no effect on test levels.

Lets make a "sticky post"...PFFFFFFHAHA

this ^^
Strong bump
I read that if you don't fap for 7 days straight, over those seven days your test levels remain consistent, but on the 7th day they sky rocket. Not sheriff srs, but somewhat sure. Probably have a great day moving weights on Day 7
