Questions regarding ejaculation..?
Hello, doctor.
I have a question regarding ejaculation that has been troubling me for a long time.
Three years ago, I learned how to masturbate, but my method was not to do it when I was erect; instead, I would stimulate myself when I wasn't erect, and as a result, semen would be released.
Recently, I watched adult films and saw the male actors stimulating themselves while erect, so I tried to do the same.
However, no matter how much I rub, I still cannot ejaculate, and even after my hands get tired, I still cannot achieve ejaculation.
Should I see a urologist for this issue, or is there a way to resolve this problem? Thank you.

Hello, young friend: It's not about self-defense; it should be about masturbation.
Moderate masturbation is permissible, but you are still quite young, so it's best not to become overly obsessed with the act too early.
Focus on strengthening your body for the future.
It's not necessary to achieve ejaculation every time you masturbate, so there's no need to worry or consult a urologist.

Ejaculation issues can be a source of significant concern and confusion, especially for young individuals navigating their sexual health. It's important to understand that sexual function, including ejaculation, can be influenced by a variety of factors, including psychological, physiological, and even situational elements.
In your case, it seems that you have developed a unique method of self-stimulation that does not involve achieving an erection, which is quite different from the typical sexual response cycle. This can lead to a disconnect between your body's physiological responses and your expectations during sexual activity. When you attempt to stimulate yourself while erect, you may be experiencing a form of performance anxiety or psychological barrier that prevents ejaculation, despite physical stimulation.
Here are some key points to consider regarding your situation:
1. Understanding Ejaculation: Ejaculation is a complex process that involves the coordination of various bodily systems, including the nervous system and the reproductive system. Factors such as anxiety, stress, or even the pressure to perform can impact your ability to ejaculate.
2. Psychological Factors: If you feel anxious or pressured to perform in a certain way, this can inhibit your ability to ejaculate. It's not uncommon for individuals to experience performance anxiety, especially when trying new techniques or comparing themselves to what they see in adult films. Remember that adult films often portray unrealistic scenarios that do not reflect typical sexual experiences.
3. Physical Factors: There could also be physical factors at play. If you have been using a method of stimulation that does not involve an erection, your body may have adapted to that method, making it more challenging to achieve ejaculation through other means.
4. When to Consult a Urologist: If this issue persists and causes you distress, it would be advisable to consult a urologist. A urologist specializes in male reproductive health and can help identify any underlying medical conditions that may be contributing to your difficulty in ejaculating. They can also provide guidance on sexual health and techniques that may be more effective for you.
5. Exploring Techniques: In the meantime, consider experimenting with different techniques that involve both physical stimulation and mental relaxation. Focus on what feels pleasurable rather than on the end goal of ejaculation. This can help reduce anxiety and improve your overall sexual experience.
6. Communication and Education: If you are comfortable, discussing your concerns with a trusted friend or partner can also be beneficial. They may provide support and understanding, which can alleviate some of the pressure you may be feeling.
In summary, while it can be concerning to experience difficulties with ejaculation, it is essential to approach the situation with patience and understanding. If the issue continues to affect your quality of life or causes significant distress, seeking the advice of a urologist would be a prudent step. They can offer personalized insights and potential treatment options tailored to your specific needs. Remember, sexual health is an important aspect of overall well-being, and addressing concerns early can lead to better outcomes.
