Releasing sperm or ejaculation actually has a number of good benefits for men’s health. Starting from reducing stress, burning calories, making sleep better, to reducing the risk of death from heart disease.
How to remove sperm by men is done in two ways, namely masturbation or masturbation and through sexual intercourse. However, the frequency of releasing sperm also needs to be considered.
If it becomes a routine habit, how do you overcome the bad effects of releasing sperm frequently?
Until now, there has been no research that can answer the ideal frequency in one week, one month, or one year for men to release sperm.
Reported Healthline, The results of a 2017 study reported that ejaculating 21 times a month can reduce a man’s risk of developing prostate cancer.
The study was conducted on 31,925 men and published in European Urology in December 2016.
Although the results of the study showed an association between the frequency of ejaculation and the risk of prostate cancer, additional research is needed to strengthen these findings.
The reason is that the study relied on self-reported answers by the subjects, once in 1992 and once in 2010. The answers were about how often they ejaculated per month and whether or not they had prostate cancer.
The study also did not say whether ejaculation resulted from sexual intercourse or from masturbation. This is likely to play a role in the more specific results regarding the reduced risk of prostate cancer.

It’s just that often releasing sperm can have a bad impact if it makes you worry and crosses a certain limit.
Like making the body feel very tired, work and productivity decreases, lose interest in daily activities, to withdraw from social life to satisfy sexual desires, then you need to immediately seek help to get treatment.

Treatment can be with psychotherapy which can help manage compulsive sexual behavior. Psychotherapy is divided into three, as follows:
- Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT): This therapy identifies negative thoughts and emotions that motivate you to masturbate. After that, you are directed to replace this behavior with an adaptive approach.
- Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT): This therapy encourages you to commit to changing negative habits.
- Psychodynamic psychotherapy: This therapy is to identify unconscious thoughts or actions, develop new thought patterns and motivations, and to resolve conflicts.
2. Taking medication prescribed by a doctor
If you experience hypersexuality, your doctor will usually suggest taking certain drugs.
This medication aims to relieve triggers for compulsive sexual behavior such as anxiety or depression.
3. Distract with positive activities
How to overcome the bad effects of often releasing the third sperm that you can do is to keep yourself busy with positive activities.
Divert your attention to fun activities like exercise, journaling, socializing with friends, or going for a walk.
