    new here not sure where to post, but i was wondering if dry orgasms, like for example humping and getting a physical sensation without cumming or touching my penis still have same scientific benefits or is it lowered? i cant really find many results on this in google. thanks

    The idea is to stop PMO i.e. Porn; Masturbation; Orgasms. So, there is your answer.
    This would be a form of edging. Edging or Orgasm Control to give it it's official name is risky and harmful behaviour as it releases large amounts of dopamine in the brain and prevents recovery. Try not to look for loopholes, just avoid all PMO.

    Well, I assume you are here because you are addicted to porn (and compulsive masturbation and/or edging). High speed internet porn produces overstimulation of the 'reward' circuit in the brain. This flooding of dopamine over a long period of time cause the dopamine receptors to burn out and diminish. Therefore more and more stimulation is required to feel anything. So, you have to avoid all PMO so that the brain can reboot and become more sensitive to dopamine again.

    Quit playing a game with yourself, it's PMO. You are wanting the benefits of PMO without abstaining from it, it don't work like that. Get serious about letting it go or you will never have victory.

  6. I don't think that's a dry orgasm. It's just on the edge of an orgasm. And it should not be something you practice in reboot.

    Dry orgasms don't exist. What you're describing is simply contraction of muscles in your genital area, that also happens during a real orgasm, but in this case, its intensity is quite low.
