Penis function is a valuable and important subset of penis health and one which, when in the midst of sexual situations, is of primary importance to a man. After all, when with a partner in bed, the last thing a man wants to be concerned about is whether his penis will operate in the manner that is expected. Often, penis function matters revolve around erectile issues or around premature ejaculation, but there can be other penis function concerns – such as anejaculation.
About anejaculation
Because it is not something that occurs commonly, few men are even aware that anejaculation exists. Simply put, anejaculation refers to a situation in which a man is unable to ejaculate semen. This is not the same thing as impotence, as most men with anejaculation have a penis that still responds to stimulation and can become aroused and erect; many men with anejaculation are even able to experience an orgasm. It is simply not accompanied by the traditional expulsion of semen from the penis.
There are several forms of anejaculation.
– When a man has total anejaculation, it means that a man does not ejaculate at all – no matter what he may do, or a partner may do. Total anejaculation is something that may have been an issue for a man his entire life, or it could be something that develops later in life, even though he at one time was able to ejaculate.
– With situational anejaculation, a man finds that there are times when he ejaculates and times when he doesn’t. In some cases, there seem to be clear-cut boundaries that can define when he does or does not. For example, it may be that a man finds it easy (or relatively so) to ejaculate when he masturbates. But when he is engaged in partner sex, he may find that he is incapable of ejaculation. There also are times when defining exactly when a man will experience ejaculation, and when he will not, can be unclear and imprecise.
– If a man has orgasmic anejaculation, it means (as might be supposed) that he does achieve an orgasm having sex, even without the release of any semen.
– And if he is stricken with anorgasmic anejaculation, it likewise means that an orgasm eludes him along with a release of semen.
A man may have a combination of these forms (such as being both situational and anorgasmic, for example).
Treatment
Treating anejaculation is challenging, not least because the causes are poorly understood. Sometimes there is a psychological component, but there also are several other factors that can come into play. These include spinal cord injuries, pelvic injury, reactions to medications, and nervous system disorders. If a doctor is able to pinpoint with fair certainty the cause, then treatment is easier to recommend.
When the cause is known, a doctor can take steps, such as altering medication or treating an underlying disorder. A doctor may also check to see if there is any physical blockage that can be responsible for the lack of semen release. In other cases, vibrational therapy may be employed as a means of encouraging ejaculation. Electro-stimulation may also be tried.
In many cases, it may take some “trial and error” to determine the best course of treatment for an individual patient.
Anejaculation is a difficult penis function issue; as with many such matters, it helps to have an otherwise healthy penis, so men should continue daily use of a superior penis health oil (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin). It may help to find an oil with L-carnitine, an ingredient with neuroprotective properties that can help maintain proper penis sensitivity. Ideally the oil should also contain vitamin C, a key component of collagen, a tissue in the body that gives skin its tone and elasticity.
