Did anyone develop high blood sugar/ diabetes because of excessive masturbation ? Please help

Thanks for the feedback MRas. I hope Stacks sees the revitalization of his original post.

I believe you both are correct as well. Yet I would have never made this connection without this thread. There is no doubt that excess in general creates bodily harm. Too much food....bad. Too little exercise...bad. Too much exercise.....stress..sleep....etc. All bad. How can we think excess masturbation and how it impacts our hormonal balance NOT have an effect on our blood sugar and blood pressure?

I can't tell you how glad I am to hear this.....well, not sure of the right emotion...But I now have an extremely important reason for NoFap. Before I was just thinking of sexual health. I didn't realize it's my overall health that I am also working on.

 

I truly believe MRas, Stack and Ocguy are onto something. Here is a word we may want to know about: hyperprolactinemia.

hyper = elevated prolactin = a 'female' hormone secreted after orgasm emia = in the blood. Hyperprolactinemia means too much prolactin in the blood.

Masturbation causes elevated levels. Chronic overmasturbation may very well cause chronic high levels of prolactin in the blood. I am sure there are a LOT of articles on this....so let's all do some research. Here is the first one I found....

Other symptoms I've had. I use to complain I have a small bladder. Through research I came to possible cause, the prostate glad being enlarged. Again wack doctors told me it's not possible in your age and tested PSA or whatever that is for your prostate. They came normal and I was back to 0. But then I found that excessive DHT in your blood from all the sexual processss enlarge the prostate it's called Benign prostate something, and guess what when my DHT went down this issue started to resolve itself.

Doctors will tell you and argue that orgasms will deplete your testosterone, but in a response your body will produce more to compensate which is true. But let me add, in my 20s my testosterone use to be 940 which is damn good for a poor lifestyle. But I still had all the symptoms of low testosterone. You know why that is? Because you're supposed to have free testosterone left in you for muscle growth for instance, when you keep fapping you're flooding your system with DHT and Estrogen. Estrogen in males suppresses your LH signalling the brain HOLD UP THERES TOO MUCH, REDUCE PRODUCTION. and unless you allow your estrogen to come down, your body will not produce the testosterone it's supposed to.

This will only happen to an extent, after that you will damage your sex organs. There's a term for it, it's something LOCK. Where your body goes into a cycle where it doesn't signal your testis to produce anymore, and if you've become obese in between all that I'll make matters worse.

I have tried everything from saw Palmetto to Ginkgo Blabia (excuse my spelling and missing terms) to multi vitamins to Ginsing.

I've learnt one very important lesson, there is an immediate action you must take if you feel you're far along the line. Switch immediately to low carb diet, get rid of sugers, bring down your body fat, eat fish oil and olive oil and green vegetables as much as you can, and do strength training. Give your body a chance to cope and see if you get a good feedback. If not do a complete hormone panel and research everything online before heading to a doctor. I'll see if I can find my old blood work to upload here.

 

These were my test results when I was masterbation, I had come down to just 2 times a week by this stage. Still

 

This was just 2 weeks after stopping. And after 4 weeks everything was back to normal. I don't have a copy of those with me. These were in my email.

 

Interesting to see the "after" shot. Obviously, it's hard to isolate the masturbation effects compared to diet and exercise, but there has to be an effect.

 

These are things I learnt 20 years down the line. No one told me, I had to come up with answers my self. I'm no doctor, but I found a direct link.

Everything was constant, the excersize the food, the sleep patterns. Nothing changed except that I stopped masterbating.

 

Incredible story. It just makes so much sense. I can't wait for the reboot now!

Forgetting the sexual aspect of the reboot.....any comments you can make on the hormone reboot for better blood pressure and blood sugar management? Same 90 day durations? Longer?

 

No

 

I can't thank Stack and MRas enough here. You have opened up a new frontier for me. I will start doing some research and share what I can find out.

And, yep, I am bald with manboobs.......I doubt we are all that rare among the 40+ year old PMO addicts on this site.

Too early to seriously suggest this, but I can see something like sharing our A1C numbers along with our nofap counters. Let's hear some ideas.....

 

I am curious what others think along these lines as well. My guess is that 90 days will put us well along the path. But we are a bit older....been at this for a long time.....anecdotal evidence says we are in for a longer haul. But I gotta begin in earnest with a MINIMUM of a 90 day reboot. I can at least check my blood pressure at home regularly.

 

Stack says, "NOFAP gets easier when YOU COMPLETELTY stay away from any sexual triggers, in your thoughts or visually. Try to forget SEX like it never existed for 90 days. I truly believe that will heal you. Once you are healed, then you can go back without being addicted like one time a week.

Chronic masturbation made me sweat so hard too because of the DEPLETED ZINC levels. Depleted zinc levels can make you sweat so bad and actually make you smell NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES you shower a day. Seriously masturbation is so bad in so many aspects. The sad thing is that so many people are so ignorant about this. Who knows how many lives were lost because of masturbation. Doctors do not know shit either."

There is so much to comment on here, but I believe him. I am determined to do at least a 90 day HARD MODE.

As for the doctors, I think both doctors and society are too politically correct to condemn masturbation the way it should be. So many societal ills are because we are no longer willing to call "bullshit!" on certain things. How can we continue to condone endless, mindless, promiscuous sex and not expect there to be breakdowns in the family, increased crime, decreased health, STD's....... Mind, you, I am NOT talking about "morals", I am just saying if we continue with the "If it feels good, do it!" mentality, we will continue to pay a high price.

 

in my doctor say over masturbation or excessive masturbation not good for your body or penis or also doc say me it is allergic to my body

 

Stack,

I am only a few days in myself.....consider me standing alongside of you with the same purpose.

(perhaps we may share some health stats along the way.....blood pressure, weight loss maybe?) Even if done privately.)

Godspeed to you. And I believe I know what you are shooting for......it's much bigger than a sexual addiction.
