Does Frequent Male Masturbation Prevent One’s Chances Of Having A Baby When The Time Comes?

Probably not.

I know that doesn’t seem like much of an answer, but it’s hard to say the impact that masturbating will have on sperm count, since so many other factors can impact it.

Take for example, alcohol and drug use. Both alcohol and tobacco use have been shown to decrease sperm production. There aren’t as many studies on marijuana use as there have been on other drugs. But, some studies have shown that marijuana use can slow down sperm production.  

Narcotics and steroids can also decrease sperm count.

If a man is obese, his sperm count will be lower.

I also need to mention the role of age. The older a man gets, the more his sperm count is impacted.  Once he turns 35, there starts to be a decrease in his sperm production. The sperm production slows down even more once he turns 50.

If you’re young and healthy and have a normal sperm count, and are not using any of the things I mentioned, then the answer is no. Masturbation on it’s own should not have an effect on your ability to get someone pregnant.

I feel like I need to point out that frequent masturbation should never be considered a contraceptive method!

Until next, be safe and have fun!
