    Ok. Although this is not directly a porn-induced sexual dysfunction but care to read.

    It so happened that during my teens, like many others of this age group, I started "sporting" pimples on my face. I somehow accepted it as natures gift. Later, I noticed even I was in 20s it had not ceased to grow completely.
    Then I began to notice that when I M'd multiple times in quick succession (say 4-5 times in 2 days) 1 or 2 pimples would grow on my face. Unable to accept this harsh reality, I put it to test(well not intentionally but due to habit of PMO) and I was forced to accept this fact. It may be highly personal experience to me but that is it.
    I'm 25 now and the same experience continues. So before any big event where I may be exposed to many acquaintances I make sure I give up Masturbation before a week so that no pimples come out and embarrass me.


    Let me know if you too share the same experience.


    PS : Why did I put in this forum?
    Because IMO one's appearance esp face can hamper his confidence which is crucial to sex life. Thus, indirectly having pimples(due to habit PMO) qualifies as PISD.

    After searching for a good while, I've come to a conclusion, Porn nor masturbation gives acne, it's actually the orgasm which causes acne. Whenever a male orgasms the testosterone in blood is converted by the enzyme 5-alpha reductase into DHT (dihydrotestosterone) a more potent form of testosterone. DHT is known for causing inflammation in the body in excess, It also increases sebum production (skin oil) and if you have clogged pores this results in acne. It is also the main culprit of hair loss in men. Most men are immune to the side effects of DHT but some people are not and frequent orgasm causes problem for them. However DHT inhibitors do exist and they can help with the hormonal acne.

    P.S: Sorry for being too scientific but I wanted to explain everything in the best way I could.

    I was such a "pizza face" as a teen. Of course, I was beating myself to death at that time...It took me 25 years and finding this site to figure what the most possible cause was!

    sorry you are wrong :) in a way...

    the ejaculation is the problem. magnesium is going out of your body, which is responsible for skin.
    try to masturbate to orgasm without ejaculation. and you will see no pimples, seriously.
    you can masturbate without ejaculation by holding/blocking the pipe in you penis.
    be careful only, do it ONLY if you ejaculate lately..
    if you didn't masturbate like a week, the pressure of semen will be too high, will be painful and maybe dangerous.

    you can also take multi vitmin or simply magnesium after you masturbate, and you will not have pimples. i used to take very concentrated magnesium which made my skin smooottthh even though i masturbated.

    Oh really? ;)
    Magnesium is just another supplement that is required for the body, If you don't follow the american diet (high in junk and fast food) you're probably getting enough magnesium for your body and even If your body was deficient in magnesium, acne wouldn't be the only problem, You would have increased risk of diabetes type II, cardiac arrest, heart failure and heart attack furthermore lack of magnesium also causes deficiency of potassium and calcium so if your deficient in magnesium you're pretty much screwed. Even if ejaculation was enough to cause magnesium deficiency then a lot of men wouldn't even reach their adulthood :).
    My point here is ejaculation alone doesn't cause magnesium deficiency.
    I believe you are talking about semen retention right? Then let's start simple shall we :),
    Orgasm and ejaculation are two different processes that occur simultaneously. Ejaculation is simply the emission of semen from penis and orgasm is what gives you the high and causes the shifting in hormones and rest of the stuff.
    Even if you stop the ejaculation the orgasm still occurs and that is what causes many people to feel ill afterwards.
    I have tried what you have said and still got acne while feeling like crap, So I may have to disagree with this.
    Besides I don't think many people here are fond with the idea of masturbation ;)
    OH DEAR GOD PLEASE NO! Injaculation is extremely harmful for you, It has no benefits and it's a complete hazard.
    Even if you stop ejaculation, It simply goes from the urethra into the bladder where it passes out again when you pee.
    So you still lose semen. Also injaculating will damage your penis. It can rupture the urethra causing excessive bleeding from the penis and extreme pain especially when urinating and the damage is also permanent. Furthermore It can cause bladder infections, prostate,infertility problems and it can even permanently damage the nerve that regulates the bowels and this causes Fecal incontinence (complete loss over bowel movements and bladder) and you will become a disabled person for the rest of your life. I know you think that the taoist (ancient chinese) used to do this and so it's okay but it is complete BS and a hoax there is absolutely no benefit from withholding ejaculation.
    It's better to be safe than to be sorry later. You might love injaculating now since it allows you to have
    orgasms more frequently but later in life you'll end up regretting it
    Good for you then, I've taken multi vitamins tablets daily for three years including mineral supplements and guess what? ZERO effect. It didn't make me feel better, It didn't effect my acne,
    In fact several studies have been done that show that most multi-vitamins and minerals supplements are actually useless and waste of money here are some sources if you don't believe me Link 1 , Link 2
    You may be deficient in magnesium that's why magnesium supplements seem to be helping you but it won't work for the majority. Also these are not my opinions, but what science states so..
    Sorry If I sound rude but I'm kind of shocked by your response, I hope you don't mind :)

    I had similar problem by I have analyzed that my pimples grow when I got sweated and I dont wash afterwards.
    It might be the same case that when you masturtbated you sweated and it clogged your pours in skin and pimples appeared.
    I recommand try to wash your face everyday before sleeping, it helped me.
