Do I need to supplement if I ejaculate frequently?

Unread post by sakamoto »

I am a male, 20 years old. I maintain a high frequency of masturbation these two years, usually ejaculating 1-3 times a day. I noticed that some articles said that semen contains more zinc, so do I need to supplement some trace elements such as zinc, as well as vitamins or something?

I don't seem to have any health problems now, except that I go to bed late every night. I have some difficulty concentrating, but I don't think it's caused by masturbation.

Thanks for your help!

Hi sakamoto,

Nope, you do not need to take any supplements even if you masturbate frequently. While semen contains certain minerals, even frequent ejaculation isn't going to result in large enough quantities of them being lost to pose an issue.
And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.

Okay, then I'm relieved. Thanks for your answer!
