Quick question-gctid144206

The simple answer is no. If anything, you will increase in your erection frequency, erection size, erection stamina. I also found that I came more, more often, and lasted longer. With all that said, each of us is an individual and you may or may not experience what I have. And, a suggestion - don't strive for a hands free wet orgasm. Traditional penile ejaculation can often lead to a short circuit in the intensity and quality of your prostate orgasms. Also, many of us find no connection between having an erection and the pleasure that comes from prostate orgasms. I, for one, go hard and soft and hard and soft throughout my sessions.

@brine thanks. Im just worried because ive seen people talk about "use it or lose it" and if i cant get an erection thru using the aneros and im trying not to jerk off. i don't wanna lose the ability to get one at all

I had very low sex drive and pretty much never had random erections during the day or when waking up. If I wanted to have one I'd have to physically stimulate my dick to get one, and even then it wasn't really that hard of an erection. I also struggled with having a very long refractory period that came with a lot of awful side effects such as depression. I decided to completely give up traditional masturbation because it wasn't worth it and instead only try to have prostate/dry orgasms. By the way I am only in my early twenties.

A few months later and although I haven't had much success yet with dry orgasms, I'm more "sexual" than when I was 13. I usually wake up with a rock-hard erection and can frequently get one from just fantasizing. My traditional orgasms have become more powerful as well, even though I only masturbate about once a week. Even if never masturbated I'd still have a wet dream about once a week, which never happened before. So from my experience I'd say don't worry about it, erection and ejaculation are two biological functions of the male body that wont go away just because you don't use them for a while.

By the way I've only done Aless so far.

@AlessLover I have refrained from masturbation and am practicing male chastity for about 5 months now. My sex drive has never been stronger. I would suggest starting slowly; set a goal for yourself of, say, one week without MB. You may not be able to go the distance immediately, but don't give up! Eventually, you should be able to complete the "21-Day No Ejaculation Challenge" (search for it within Aneros). You may begin to experience wet dreams as a result. You may even get occasional "blue balls" like me. Not to worry! Your body is made to continue to have erections (nocturnal penile erections) whether you MB or not. Lose the ability to get hard? -----Ha! You can't stop the erections! If anything, they will be stronger and last longer (brine knows what he is talking about). And you will find that by limiting your penile orgasms, you will begin to feel the prostate orgasms more intensely. "Use it or lose it"? Don't worry, it won't happen! Good luck!

Different men have different experiences and response. There are some men who will experience a calming after refraining for a certain time period. Some find that happens at about 3 weeks. I find once I get beyond two weeks that my libido calms down. That said, abstaining will not make you go impotent. The body will still indulge in nighttime woodies etc. to ensure that you get some regular blood flow and thus you will not lose it. Very frequently men masturbate too much. I say masturbate, because honestly it is difficult to have partner sex too often because by the time you co-ordinate schedules, desires etc. its highly unlikely it will be too frequent. As a man gets older he should reduce his frequency. There are so many factors at play but a man can determine his ideal frequency. I would encourage you to experiment with denial as it is very interesting to see what happens when you deny yourself. Keep a day by day diary, so later you can look back and perhaps select your ideal frequency depending on your goals etc.

"As a man gets older he should reduce his frequency." ! What a remarkable statement. I suppose it depends on how often before you get old! And of course what is "older". 30 for a 20yo, 40 for a 30yo ..........70 for a 60yo, 90 for a 80yo.
my motto - use it or you will lose it.

Will I lose the ability to get an erection and have an orgasm the traditional way? Because I know that some trans women who go into chasity can lose the ability to get hard. I dont want the same to happen to me

While there is some truth to the old cliché "Use it or lose it" as @isvara noted, I seriously doubt short periods of masturbatory abstinence will cause any long term impairment. It takes longer periods of time for muscular atrophy to set in and your penile structure is not really muscle anyway. The hydraulics of penile tissue are more affected by mood, blood chemistry and hormones than repetitive usage. As @goldenboy noted, as long as you are not impairing the physical ability of your penis to become erect your nocturnal erections will maintain normal penile functioning. The fact you may not have an erection during Aneros use is nothing to be concerned about, many men experience this same phenomenon, myself included. It does not impact your ability to receive pleasure from Aneros use nor should it affect your ability to obtain erections through more traditional masturbatory techniques. You should also realize that many transgendered individuals are employing hormonal therapies which may include testosterone blockers and estrogen enhancers which often lead to reduced libidos, testicular/penile atrophy and concurrent erectile dysfunction. Many anti-depressant medications may have similar effects when taken long term. As long as you remain healthy, drug free and your penis suffers no physical trauma there should be no problem getting erections after short periods of inactivity.
Good Vibes to You !
