Men and Sex – The Myth vs Reality

Please click on my username to know about me. It will help you establish the reliability of what is written below. I am very careful about the sources where I gather info from. I gather it mostly from universities or government sources. Read this article & educate yourself. Taking remedies without taking the complete symptom picture is most likely to fail and make things worse.

It’s surprising to see how much misinformation exists about sexual health of men. This in turn makes most healthy men feel inadequate due to one reason or another. Those who have heard about homeopathy turn to it for a solution or a miracle cure for a “disease” that never was. You should do your own research to form an educated opinion. Just don’t rely on hearsay.

In this article I will try to clarify a few misconceptions about following topics:
1. Masturbation
2. Premature Ejaculation (PE)
3. Penis size
4. Nocturnal emissions a.k.a Night fall, Wet dreams, Ejaculating in sleep
5. Heart health & ED (erectile dysfunction)

MASTURBATION
Just 30-40 years back, masturbation was considered a sin in almost all cultures and feelings of guilt were associated with it. Even homeopathic literature is full of such explanations which is a reflection of the times in which it was written. Now times have changed, and with experience people have learnt that it’s a healthy activity when done in moderation. Its unhealthy if your life revolves around it and nothing else. The definition of moderation is different for everyone, once a week maybe moderate for some and once a day would be moderate for others. Just remember, that it’s not moderate if it makes you feel weak & lethargic after it.

In developed nations it’s a non-issue as it’s the accepted norm. There is a joke about it which says that 90% young men masturbate and 10% lie. People have embraced it as normal and healthy because with education and common observation everyone has seen that “masturbating sinners” don’t suffer from any ill health.

Unfortunately, the stigma and the feelings of sin are still prevalent in most developing & under-developed nations. With the ease with which all sorts of porn is available to everyone the teenagers are fighting two opposing urges most of the time. If they watch porn, they need the release. Since masturbation is the easiest form of release, that’s what they do. After doing that the feeling of guilt starts setting in because that is what they have been made to believe through various societal or religious norms.

To top it all, many homeopaths and pseudo-homeopaths cash in on this guilt and further drive home the message that masturbation is wrong and the source of all health problems. This is total non-sense as the practical evidence is contrary to this. If this theory was correct that masturbation causes health issues almost all men would be sick.

The young minds are impressionable and in the absence of proper sex education, hearsay is all they rely on. Which is not only unreliable but sometimes dangerously wrong. There is no short cut to removing this stigma, only time & education can help.

PREMATURE EJACULATION:
Most of the men who complain about PE (premature ejaculation) have two sources of information, either listening about someone’s heroic stamina or watching porn.

That someone could be friends boasting about their sustaining power which mostly is a lie.

In case of porn, when you see a male star going at it for maybe 30 minutes, it’s either a combination of multiple shots taken over several sessions and/or an acquired trait where the male stars have developed stamina by using the start-stop technique explained below. remember, those scenes are removed from the movie when a male stars ejaculates early during a scene. That scene is then shot again and what you get to watch is a continuous session making you believe something which is not true.

Any good sex education class will tell you all of this which I am writing here.

The fact is that most healthy men ejaculate within 1-3 minutes of non-stop stimulation. This time increases with age as all body functions get slower and weaker. So if you are within this time, you are “normal” and stop fretting about PE.

If you want to increase your time before ejaculation, it’s an acquired trait and you can train yourself to last as long as you want. It’s easy and here is how to do it:

During sex arouse yourself and reach as close to the point of ejaculation as you can, then stop the stimulation and let the urge to ejaculate subside. Then start over again. Keep doing this cycle and you will last much longer. This is called start-stop technique and doesn’t require any medicine. You will get better at it with practice.

To satisfy your wife, learn this science: The average time of orgasm for most women is 15-20 minutes, so you have two choices, either increase your time before ejaculation to 15-20 minutes or increase the time of foreplay to 15-20 minutes and then you & your wife can both have enjoyable sex culminating in an orgasm for both of you.

PENIS SIZE:
Next comes the size of penis, again, porn is to blame for that. When men watch porn, they compare themselves with the male porn stars. This in turn makes them believe that their penis size is small. Yes, there are some men who are better endowed than others but it’s uncommon. You have to understand, the average height of men is different in different races, just like that, the average penis size is different in different races.

It’s similar to watching a movie star, they are much more handsome than an average person, better built, great features etc. Would it be realistic for you to try to become them? The same logic holds here too. Whatever penis size you have is adequate for you. Size has nothing to do with enjoyment. The vagina is sensitive and lined with pleasure nerves only on the outer 1/3rd part which is less than 3 inches deep so no matter how deep you penetrate, the pleasure won’t change. To the contrary, too deep a penetration in which you hit against the cervix will cause pain to woman and be a turn off instead of enjoyment.

Remember, as it’s uncommon to see 7 ft tall men, similarly you will not see men with 9” penises. Both these are uncommon traits. The same is true for breast sizes, it’s uncommon to see immensely huge breasts. I hope you can see the pattern here.

NOCTURNAL EMISSIONS:
Nocturnal Emissions are a sign of a healthy body and if a teenager ejaculates in sleep every other day, it’s ok. The only time it may require some homeopathic intervention is if its daily and as a result the daytime routine suffers due to fatigue & tiredness. If you are energetic & fresh then even daily ejaculation is fine.

HEART HEALTH & ED:
Penis response is an excellent indicator of heart health. It has been confirmed by many heart specialists that all those things which negatively affect the heart do the same to the penis. The valves in your penis which cause erection work on the same principle as the valves in the heart and are made of almost the same tissue. The fine capillaries which provide blood flow to the penis also get affected in the same way as the heart capillaries with arteriosclerosis (hardening & plaque deposition in arteries). Furthermore, the statin drugs that most heart patients and people with high cholesterol are prescribed also cause a diminished libido.

So what is the solution to ED associated problems. Unfortunately there is no quick fix. If your blood vessels have been choked with plaque and have hardened due to poor eating habits, lack of exercise or genetics then reversing it all is difficult, more so if you are above 50. You can visit my website (click on my username for details) for more details as there are a lot of details that will make this post unimaginably lengthy.

I can summarize though, if you start following a heart healthy diet and incorporate aerobic exercise, strength training and meditation in your routine you will see the positive effects within 2-4 weeks.

In your post you didn't mention about erection problem.

Give details of the problem.

You don't need any medicine. Follow the guidelines in next post and report back in 3 months.

Taking remedies without taking the complete symptom picture is most likely to fail and make things worse.

If you want to be healthy, be at an optimum weight, have great digestive system, be full of energy and a great sex drive then you can follow the below guidelines for 3 months and the results will speak for themselves. Overweight people have shown a decrease of approx. ½ to 1 lb per week following these guidelines till they reached the optimum weight for their bodies.

But before you try to follow these you have to know what is the difference between a “Diet” and “Lifestyle Change”.

A “diet” is only for a few days e.g. soup diet, vegetable diet etc. These are not sustainable and sooner or later people get sick of them and revert to their old ways & habits and loose whatever benefits they gained!

A “lifestyle change” on the other hand consists of sensible & conscious choices that you make which you know will last a lifetime because these are choices which show results slowly but surely and permanently.

DIETARY GUIDELINES:
1. Eat 5 walnuts a day. Walnuts should be in their shell till the time you are going to eat them. Pre-shelled nuts go rancid and are harmful instead of being healthy. Walnuts help boost HDL (good cholesterol) which cleans and removes the plaque deposits from your arteries.
2. Eat 5 almonds a day. Almonds should be in their shell till the time you are going to eat them. Pre-shelled nuts go rancid and are harmful instead of being healthy. Almonds provide several essential nutrients especially Vitamin-E which reduces inflammation in your body, improves your immune system and makes heart healthy. Almonds also make sex drive stronger.
3. Eat a raw clove of garlic everyday by crushing it or chopping it into fine pieces and letting it sit for 10 minutes. Doing this makes the garlic super potent in helping you fight inflammation. It’s the best known naturally occurring antibacterial & antifungal.
4. Start eating half cup of low fat, unsweetened, non-flavored yogurt with live cultures daily in the morning or with lunch. If you have homemade yogurt that’s the best. NOTE: Yogurt can cause increased mucus generation in some individuals, if you are like that, don’t eat yogurt. Rather start eating roasted black chick peas (also known as Bengal Gram) daily.
5. Stop all processed foods e.g. white bread, white rice, white burgers etc.
6. Eat whole foods only i.e. whole grain bread, brown rice, brown burgers etc.
7. The bread should be high in bran content & the flour should be coarse ground.
8. Start eating a small bowl of salad at least once a day or ideally twice a day. it should contain cucumber, carrots, salad leaves, tomato and any vegetable you like. Put a dressing of olive oil & raw apple cider vinegar and put some salt & black pepper to your liking. You can put some freshly unshelled almonds or walnuts on your salad too.
9. Eat at least 1-2 fruits per day e.g. apple, orange etc.
10. Drink enough water so that your urine is clear. Yellow colored urine is a good indication that you are dehydrated.
11. Eat only when hungry and when eating, don’t overstuff yourself.
12. Focus on food only when you eat i.e. don’t divert your attention by watching tv etc.

CONSTIPATION:
If you suffer from constipation, you need to understand the difference between SOLUBLE and INSOLUBLE fiber. If you have a tendency towards constipation then in addition to the abovementioned guidelines for diet, you need to add INSOLUBLE fiber. A few good sources of insoluble fiber are broccoli, whole wheat, bran, husk etc. This fiber stimulates good bowel movement.
SOLUBLE fiber on the other hand slows down digestion. A few good sources of soluble fiber are apple, oats, banana etc. If you want to REDUCE CHOLESTEROL then consume soluble fiber. You can search the internet for more info on these fiber types.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES:
1. Aerobic activity e.g. Start walking at least 30 minutes a day for 5 days a week with your spouse/friend and achieve your TARGET HEART RATE.
2. Strength training e.g. Start weight training at least 20 minutes 3 days a week.
NOTE: If you have a physical injury or other issues, consult your physician before embarking on the strength training. Search internet to know what is Target Heart Rate for exercise.

I advise to use “Raw, unfiltered, unpasteurized, apple cider vinegar” because it contains the wholesome goodness of vinegar not spoiled by processing. Same approach is used for yogurt, no artificially sweetened, processed, flavored yogurt, just have it as close to the way it naturally comes as possible.
I advise to use almonds & walnuts which are in their shell till you want to eat them because pre-shelled nuts become rancid and do damage to your body instead of benefit.
