What Causes Pain In Testicles After Masturbation?

Posted on Tue, 17 Feb 2015

Question: Hi doctor , I'm 28 years old. I masturbate daily and have been masturbating from last 8-10 years. Will it effect my fertility? Sometimes I experience muscular pains below testis.

Brief Answer:
Masturbation has no evil effects on fertility.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,

I understand your concern.

Masturbation has no proven effects on reduction of fertility.

Muscular pains below and around testis are quite common post sex and masturbation due to the contraction of the perineal muscles to drive the semen out.

Hence I would like to conclude that masturbation has no evil side effects on fertility.

Thank you.

hi doctor , thanks for your reply. I sometimes feel that my semen is light and watery . Does it mean that sperm count will be less? How can i stop this habit of masturbation and should i take a gap of some time(i mean a day) between masturbating ? Since i'm circumcised i feel it can have scratches.

Brief Answer:
Light semen does not imply less sperm counts

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,

I understand your concern.

Watery and light semen does not imply reduced sperm count.It could be normal phenomenon.

Initially I advise you to allow a time gap between masturbation.

Divert yourself when the thought of masturbation comes to your mind.

Do not spend more time alone.

Indulge yourself in productive time.

Move in groups.

Do not sleep alone.

Yes excessive masturbation can cause,friction tears on circumcised penis.Hence its always better to avoid it.

Thank you.
