Hello! I have been on semen retention for more a year. After that I have developed severe urges to relapse and I masturbated to porn. While masturbating, I don't get the erection. What could be the problem behind not getting the erection while masturbating? Is it common? Please let me know.

Hello- Over stimulation of the penis can lead to persistent softness of an erection, while the disappearance of a morning erection can signify a hormonal imbalance. Weak erections can vary, from poor blood circulation to anxiety issues, but for men who over masturbate, the weakness can occur because of a hormonal imbalance. Hormonal Reserve Think of sex as a battery. The more you use it, the faster you lose it. An erection occurs because of a healthy dosage of hormones and neurotransmitters. The urge for sex starts with testosterone. But men who ejaculate often lose testosterone faster than their bodies can replenish it. With little testosterone, erections become weaker. Meanwhile, dopamine must be released to stimulate the penis, while acetylcholine must be present to keep the ?excitement? level high. Nitric oxide, a signaling chemical, must also appear in order to provide the proper signaling between the brain and the penis for a healthy erection. Over masturbation depletes all of these neurochemicals. Lowered dopamine requires more stimulation to stay ?hard?, while decreased acetylcholine levels ruin the flow of blood to maintain an erection. Depleted nitric oxide levels lead to a decrease in communication between the brain and penis.
