Sex is present, the peak of pleasure has been experienced, but the sperm is nowhere to be seen. If a man has ever experienced something similar, it means he is familiar with the concept of dry orgasm.
In strict medical language, this case is called orgasmic anejaculation. By the way, there is also its opposite — anorgasmic ejaculation, when there is sperm, but no orgasm (think of youthful night emissions), but that is a completely different story.
Returning to the topic: orgasm without ejaculation, although it seems strange, is most often safe Dry orgasm . It may only harm those men who want to have children. But sometimes "dryness" can be a symptom of extremely unpleasant diseases, and it is worth knowing about.
Why dry orgasm occurs
Most often for obvious physiological reasons. If a person has undergone surgery to remove the bladder or prostate, their body can no longer produce sperm.
However, there are also less obvious factors Dry orgasm that "turn off" ejaculation. Here they are:
- Damage to nerve endings. This happens with diabetes, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injuries.
- Retrograde ejaculation. This refers to a condition where the bladder neck does not close during orgasm (as it should normally) and sperm flows into the bladder instead of where it is intended. This is not harmful to health!
- Genetic disorders of the reproductive system. If they exist, the body simply does not produce enough sperm.
- The use of certain medications. Specifically, in the absence of ejaculation, drugs designed to lower blood pressure, treat prostate adenoma, and correct affective disorders may be to blame.
- Testosterone deficiency. This hormone is necessary for sperm production, and if there is critically little of it — well, you understand.
- Radiation therapy. This is used in the treatment of certain types of cancer.
- Obstruction of the ejaculatory duct. This means that the channel through which sperm moves from the penis is blocked, making ejaculation simply impossible.
- Stress and other psychological problems. In this case, dry orgasms can be situational: under some conditions, ejaculation occurs, under others — it does not.
What to do if you have dry orgasm
First, go to the doctor. You can go directly to a sexologist. But a therapist will also suffice: they will advise you on which specialist is best suited for your problem.
If dry orgasms are caused by retrograde ejaculation, you will be prescribed medication that helps keep the bladder neck muscles closed during sex. If ejaculation is "turned off" by a medical drug you are taking, the doctor will help find an alternative without unpleasant side effects. When it comes to psychological anejaculation, psychotherapy will eliminate the problem.
And once again, an important point. Dry orgasm does not harm either health or the ability to enjoy sex with a loved one. If you do not plan to have children and do not experience painful sensations, you can overlook this peculiarity. Just enjoy.
