Give me your experiences, Jow Forums I've done Nofap on and off (longest being like 4 months) but I have not found considerable benefit past a couple weeks or so. An user here posted a study that showed a spike of 140% testosterone around day 7, then it levels off indefinitely after that. I can tell you this correlates with what's I've experienced. Anything past a week or two just makes me bored.
So what is the ideal fap level for maximum gains and good health? I'm absolutely convinced that fapping daily is horrible for your health but Nofap for months doesn't seem to offer substantial benefit. Would once every 8 days be the best since that ensures a spike 4 times a month?
Not him but relapsed yesterday on day 10. I feel like shit. There's no reason to do this to yourself. Just wait out the horniness and even the blue balls. Why have four Day 1s a month? No way that's better than just a clean month (and I've done 120 days hardmode before).
Obviously subjective/anecdotal here, but I really think NoFap is about the decrease of something (prolactin?) and not the increase of T. Not "hacking" your body into some better mode, but rather stopping a harm.
I think nofap is useful for gaining control over your masturbation habit. If you think you masturbate too much going for a week or more without could be good from a psychological stand point.
Personally i would suggest that if you want to fap just don't use porn, better use your immagination. If you have a GF fuck with her.
See I think prolactin is a forgotten link in this. Correct me if I'm wrong but it seem this study suggests that t levels don't actually change much from ejaculation but do increase with prolonged abstinence. The most profound finding here is the increase of prolactin after ejaculation. Even "acute" length of abstinence doesn't seem to alter the prolactin level, which is fucked. To me this says that extended Nofap is the only way to fix raised prolactin levels which btw, prolactin is terrible for hair health.
Bros, how can I decrease prolactin? Is extended Nofap my only hope?
Owen Johnson
Yes.
Jonathan Gomez
Help. I'm on 13 days Nofap but last night I edged. I didn't cum but does this ruin my Nofap streak now ??
Angel Clark
Oh, and prolactin gives you gyno too. Bunch of people sued makers of antipsychotics because of it. Imagine being crazy, trying to treat it, and ending up with tits.

Nicotine can decrease prolactin ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2975769 But smoking cigarettes actually Raises it. Inhaling smoke, tar and ash probably is the problem there. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6818588 Nicotine is a wonder drug for men. I use patches. But i'd like to start growing my own tabacco to rub on my skin, it enters the bloodstream at a slow and constant rate transdermaly. Great for any mild serotonin/dopamine imbalances. And as such, could likely help prevent clinical depression. All while boosting test, lowering estrogen, improving cognitive performance, stimulating fat mobility, and suppressing appetite Oh, and it repels insects. Which was the primary use for tabacco by the Indians and early settlers of America.
Asher Clark
There is a spike in testosterone after day 7 as you identified, then it levels off. But it is always higher than the level if you fapped. Actually, overtime your test level slowly increases as well.
My understanding is that it levels off, but is still higher than the previous baseline.
Ryder Reed
So because you are in prolonged abstinence your body increases hormonal receptors because it's preparing itself for the upcoming point where the body procreates. That logically makes perfect sense. Which is why t levels rise and why there are various other benefits that nofappers experience. However, this guy seems to infer that t levels increase "more and more by ever cycle." is he saying that there's another t increase cycle past the 7 day spike?
Caleb Morris
What's the best nicotine supplementation, gum? Fucking weird but not the first time I've heard about the benefits of nicotine.
Christian Howard
Kind off , every new cycle raises your t levels.
Jaxson King
(Within nofap ofc).
Connor Kelly
I like to do at least once every 3 or 4 days, anything more and I lose all my sex drive. Just do it whenever you feel like it but don't let it turn into a routine
Nicotine Gum gives me the worst hiccups ever. You may find otherwise. The mints are pretty good, and are probably the all round best. I like the patch, but it is more expensive than the other two. Vaping is an option, but it hits your brain too fast and gives you a massive dopamine hit. This is what causes addiction. I can go off patches or mints and not feel any difference other than hunger. Despite getting the same amount of nicotine per day from a pack of cigarettes. Vaping is reputed to be the best at fighting hunger, but thats just because of the dopamine rush.
I'm trying to do no porn with faping maximum once a week but every time I get the urge to fall I want to use porn. I have no sexual experiences in the wank bank and I rarely ever fapped to imagination.
Jose Evans
Literally go talk to a girl and have sex, it's not that hard.
Nicholas Gutierrez
>every time I get the urge to fall I want to use porn. Just realize porn isn't real When you jack off to porn your really jerking it to a TV, monitor, or oldschool magazines. It's a deception, and you allow yourself to be deceived when you watch porn.
Easton Gutierrez
Longest I've gone was 10 days and that was on a bet. I'm now on a self imposed nofap until further notice after I had a dream of possessing thicc, black, muscle girls and using their bodies to masturbate.
Juan Reyes
There's not which is why all of us have to figure it out. This is an unexplored area of knowledge.

You fucking retards are falling for another jewish trick. NoFap is a Jewish meme meant to trick retarded goyim into not fapping which increases the risk of prostate cancer. Guess who run the pharma industry. Guess which racial group has the most doctors.
cancer.org/cancer/prostate-cancer.html >Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men (after skin cancer), but it can often be treated successfully. And yet pornography and jerking off are common habits of adults males
Asher Cooper
10minutes * 365 days = 3650mins /60 min = ~60 hours /24h= ~2.5 days spent touching yourself a year. I don't like those statistics. If you spend more time then it's like losing 1 week.
ur only wondering this so you can orgams u fag dont do it again

Pre No-fap/Noporn when I needed to release myself >Went to go have sex with gf >First time get erection easily >Every time after that takes forever and only half hard >Need supplements to get it back up again
Post No-fap/Noporn >Go to have sex with gf >Erection about the same as before >Able to get erections back to full strength much faster than before >No need to touch a supplement It doesn't give you superpowers but it does re-wire your brain a decent bit, even if you just do noporn you're already in a good place
Samuel Wood
went 12 days and then binged yesterday. I feel so fucking strung out as if I'm literally dopesick today. goddamn fuck this poison. I genuinely believe porn is worse than weed and alcohol
Jacob Cook
The "fap daily so you don't get prostate cancer" is retarded. When you fap excessively, it raises dht which causes enlarged prostate and potentially cancer.
