    I'm 48 and married with a healthy sex life. We usually have sex every other day and I do PMO in between. There are rare occasions where I might PMO more than once but not often at all. I also made it a rule a long time ago to never watch porn unless I was masturbating with orgasm and I have tried not to turn it into a long session. There have been a few occasions through the years where I attributed ED to my habit but once I established my every other day pattern, it's very rare that I can't perform. It did happen recently and that's why I am here. I'm 8 days in no PMO but we are still having sex. It's actually the best feeling sex I can remember and I am completely focused on the sensations and not having to think about anything else. I'm not craving porn but I am craving sex everyday now although I am staying with my every other day routine.
    All of that to ask my question, have a kept enough balance in my sex life to avoid a flatline?

    Flatlines usually come with extended periods of abstaining from PMO after the body develops a dopamine dependency from excessive PMO. If you’re having sex (presumably to O) every other day, you’re more than likely producing plenty of dopamine and thus are probably not going to flatline if you completely cut out porn. Your sex life will be better for it, as you’ve experienced, and your mindset will be too. Honestly man I wish I had your sex drive, keep having fun with your wife and embrace that intimacy that you can’t get from porn.
