i heard that when you "masterbate" you use alot of testosterone and that being the main hormone in muscle gain wouldnt that mean that masterbating isnt a good idea if your Body building. This question has been bothering me for a while since i do it often. Just want some answers.

Here is a study to prove that masturbation doesn't decrease your T-levels.

Endocrine response to masturbation-induced orgasm in healthy men following a 3-week sexual abstinence.

This current study examined the effect of a 3-week period of sexual abstinence on the neuroendocrine response to masturbation-induced orgasm. Hormonal and cardiovascular parameters were examined in ten healthy adult men during sexual arousal and masturbation-induced orgasm. Blood was drawn continuously and cardiovascular parameters were constantly monitored. This procedure was conducted for each participant twice, both before and after a 3-week period of sexual abstinence. Plasma was subsequently analysed for concentrations of adrenaline, noradrenaline, cortisol, prolactin, luteinizing hormone and testosterone concentrations. Orgasm increased blood pressure, heart rate, plasma catecholamines and prolactin. These effects were observed both before and after sexual abstinence. In contrast, although plasma testosterone was unaltered by orgasm, higher testosterone concentrations were observed following the period of abstinence. These data demonstrate that acute abstinence does not change the neuroendocrine response to orgasm but does produce elevated levels of testosterone in males.

Well then getting laid lowers test levels too i guess, cuz you have blood flowing to your penis, and you bust a nut rather a girl or your hand does it alll the same in test wise. Yall need to stop stroking the chicken ne wyaz bros, not cool.
