Does Holding Sperm During Masturbation Cause Any Problem In Future?
Hi doc, I am 18, I regularly indulge in masturbation, I am trying my best to reduce, usually once a day but some days i do it 2-3 times..what worries me, Is that I do not let the sperm exit as i hold down hard on myself with my hand and do not let it out..I haven't given it much thought but now i am worried if it could cause some serious problems? please advice. Thank you..

Hello,
Yes, there will be a complication in the future because of holding sperm during ejaculation: it's called Retrograde Ejaculation where the sperm will be going back into the urinary bladder. If it continues, it won't be coming out when you need the most.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
