FIRST, I am NOT a doctor or anywhere qualified to give medical advice, but I have researched a lot of sexual topics and answers by doctors.

I don't know how the response will be, but I've decided to start a thread where you can ask a question and I will scour the 'Net, books, and my own knowledge to give a clear concise answer. Post a question and I will answer as soon as I have one.

We've all heard of the term 'blue balls' but has this ever actually happend to anyone? :confused: I would imagine that in order for the testicles to turn blue, the blood supply would have to be cut off to them.

Yes.

"Blue balls," are caused because of vasocongestion in the sex organs. You know that in order for a man to have an erection more blood has to go into the penis than out of it. What you might not know is that to effect ejaculation, all the ancillary organs like the vas defrens, prostate, seminal vesicles, epididymus, and testes all have to work together and work quickly to mix the semen together and get it to the base of the penis to make it all happen. All that requires the organs to work hard and to make organs work overtime, you need a lot of oxygen and a lot of blood to supply that oxygen. Ever notice that a man's testes swell to twice their regular size just before ejaculation? They do and they're working hard!

When a man ejaculates, his body releases prolactin which tells the blood vessels in the area to stop blocking flow and also tells all the organs of the body to stop working so hard. It also tells the brain that sex is over. Just. Like. That. This is why men are so disinterested in sex (usually) immediately after ejaculation. The lowest point of a man's sex drive is immediately following ejaculation and it's entirely because he's releasing a hormone that virtually shouts in his ear, "STOP CARING ABOUT SEX!!! WHAT'S IN THE 'FRIDGE??"

Blue balls occur because prolactin doesn't get released even though arousal has ceased. As a result, all the organs haven't received the official word that sex isn't about to happen. They keep working to an end that will never (ahem) come. This causes blood to pool in the organs of the groin and particularly the super-sensitive and nearly doubly-sized balls. This causes throbbing and soreness that is very real and occasionally truly painful. The best thing for a man to do is just to jack-off. If this is impossible due to circumstance, then the next best thing to do is wait or pop a Benadryl. The aching usually subsides within half an hour or less.

How could I improve low sex drive without taking any pill or medicine?

Sex drive is linked to testosterone, more testosterone, usually the more your sex drive increases. So, exercise, good sleep, healthy eating, gut down on smoking/drinking.

There are also herbs you can take like L-Arginine, yohimbine, maca root, or horny goat weed. These boost testosterone and increase blood flow.

PS. You can ask anything you want in this post, especially if it's something that a thread would seem frivolous for, like "Why do people have pubic hair?" or "Male Nipples?"

My apologies trentster. I didn't mean to hijack your thread. I just get ticked when the subject of blue balls arises because so many people tell women it doesn't exist when it truly does.

This is the best I could find on short notice:
:yikes: I love the Looney Tunes, but I wouldn't fuck that man with someone else's cunt! :cool:

Mix it all together? Like a plumbers epoxy? :eek:

I have noticed they get high and tight with most men; but honestly hadn't noticed a doubling in size. :confused: I will next time though. :wink:

tee hee hee :wink: Cute explanation, but I still want some cuddling post-coitus.

Okay, I swear I was paying, but I don't get how Benadryl helps, it's an anti-histamine. Does it stop the flow of prolactin? :confused:

Precisely. Semen consists of hormones which stimulate the cervix to contract so as to suck up the semen, puts women into a happy mood, and tells the uterus to stop secreting fluids because a woman's uterus usually has a hostile pH for sperm (or any other living thing). Add to that a whole bunch of complex sugars which feed the sperm for their extremely long journey to the Fallopian tubes; the equivalent of a human running from Los Angeles to Seattle, and vaginal mucous neutralizers. There's no point in keeping sperm constantly fed and swimming like mad when they're not going anywhere. So all of these secretions are generally created just before they're needed, except sperm. Sperm are complex things, requiring two weeks to develop in the testes before they're ready to go. Because males might need to deposit sperm at any time, sperm are always in the process of production. For most of their life they're relatively immobile. It's only when all the different organs work together to create semen and then, only at the very end, mix that sugar and hormone rich semen with live sperm, causing them to become the ultimate marathon runners they are. More impresively, all of this can happen within mere minutes of arousal. The male gets aroused by touch or thought, and BANG! Blood rushes to the penis and ancillary organs, sperm move up from the epididymus, the Cowper's glands, the prostate, and seminal vesicles start producing their component fluids, and within a minute or two, they're all ready to be shot out of the penis into, in the case of an aroused vagina, what is a very hostile environment where the entire flow of fluid is going in the wrong direction! They're salmon swimming upstream relying on the seminal hormones to signal to the vagina to stop producing hostile secretions and to stimulate the cervix to dip into the vestibule to pull in semen, and all those sugars to keep them fed.

Okay, I swear I was paying, but I don't get how Benadryl helps, it's an anti-histamine. Does it stop the flow of prolactin?

Histamines are released by males when they are sexually aroused. Antihistamines help tell the genitals to shut down their overproduction and go back to normal idling.

No prob Jason, but for a slightly less technical explanation:

Blue balls exist, it's the swelling and expansion, due to fluid, of the ball sac. This is caused by long term arousal without orgasm. The sac can turn blue, because of blood filling the sac but not leaving, and having the blood turn blue. Cumming causes everything to go back to normal. So, women, don't cock tease, and guys, if your balls ache, jerk off.

Next question, please.

Clear and concise! I like that, thank you. I had to read parts of Jason's response 3 times to make sure I got it. :tongue:

Trenster,
The only method of penis enlargement that I can personally stick with doing is hanging weights.

Do you think weight hanging alone (it's 10 pounds hanging from a chain connected to a "bib hanger" sleeve around my schlong) for 30 minutes a day is a viable form of penis enlargement?

Thanks!
A.

My problem with any sort of hanging is this:
Length should be possible, but at what cost? It seems to me, if you stretch something lengthwise, it gets skinnier. That's simple science, so I don't see how girth would be possible. Also, the biggest gain in length is due to stretching the ligaments (things that connect the penis to the body), but the more they stretch, the weaker they could become. You might get a longer cock, but it might be skinnier and not be able to get as hard.

I might not be right, but it's hard to get real answers from sites. I'm just using my knowledge of physiology and physics to give an answer.
