There are two main factors that motivate men to masturbate: the physical aspect is due to the rise and fall of testosterone in the body; the psychological aspect is your brain’s sexual fantasies and the need to reduce stress to influence how often you masturbate.
Of course, masturbation begins during puberty, which is when the sex hormones really kick in and is the first factor that leads men to masturbate at a young age. It’s like suddenly having a good feeling that wasn’t there before, and once we combine the intense hormones with other typical teenage behaviors like being unable to resist the urge to do anything that feels good, we know the ultimate secret to masturbation.
Male sex hormones begin to decrease in their 20s, begin to decline in their 30s, and drop more dramatically in their 40s and 50s. But the way hormones change and decline in the body is greatly influenced by genetics and health. I’m talking about health rather than age. As we mentioned at the beginning, it seems that increasing age makes men feel better sexually, but it is actually closely related to physical health.
A 2012 study by the University of Adelaide found that many men’s testosterone decline was actually due to health factors such as depression, weight gain or quitting smoking, rather than age.
A sexologist once said, “If you do have a testosterone problem, your sexual function and drive are affected. But the usual reductions associated with aging generally don’t affect sexual function or drive.” Some studies showed that, in fact, testosterone needs to drop by 70-80% to really affect sexual function.
Playboy Hefner married a 26-year-old model at the age of 86. I don’t believe that the old man who founded the sexiest magazine in the world married a model just to enjoy at home, after all, he has seen it in his life Too many beauties, isn’t it?
So the real truth is that basically as long as you’re physically active and don’t have any major injuries or physical and mental disabilities, your libido will remain stable with age.
Diabetes, cancer and chemotherapy, circulatory problems such as blood pressure, heart disease and other neurological problems such as depression are the real “sex killers”.
One of the main psychological differences between adults and teens when it comes to masturbation is that as we age, masturbation becomes a routine stress reliever rather than a sexual urge.
For most men, this becomes a critical part of their lives, and even if their physical urges are reduced, if it’s their ritual to relieve stress or increase instant pleasure, they’re likely to take it seriously.
If you often take a little time to “relax”, such as in the morning between baths, “soothe” before bed, etc., you will develop a habit, even if you are not sexually aroused at the time, and there is no need for stress Release, and also continue the previous behavior, resulting in you having a regular masturbation schedule.
This can become a vicious cycle: Some men feel physically stressed because they haven’t had an orgasm in a while, just like someone is stressed about not going to the gym for a week. So for some people, it’s not even a porn act, it’s just that there’s no way to not stick to their schedule.
Another misconception about men’s masturbation habits is that if they’re in a sexually healthy relationship, they’ll masturbate less, which isn’t the case. Masturbation is not a weak substitute for sex with a partner, and if it were true, men and women with active sex lives would expect to masturbate less frequently than those without a partner, but research has found that the frequency of masturbation and sexual intercourse almost no correlation.
For male masturbators with strict schedules, even having sex regularly with a new partner isn’t enough to break the schedule: if you have to jerk off every night to sleep, you’re going to have sex with your partner all weekend. Lying in bed will still maintain this habit, unless you really run out of “bullets”.
Long story short, if the boys stay healthy, you’ll probably continue to practice “unicorn arm practice” for most of your adult life.
Aside from health, the only thing that really affects the frequency of masturbation is how much you feel masturbated. So the only advice we can give you is:
“Lock the door and everything will be fine.”
