Masturbation at late age

Posted by newrochelle1131 @newrochelle1131, Feb 27, 2025

Is it normal for men over 70 (without medical prob;ems) to masturbate? How often? Any adverse effects? Are there natural ways to increase the production of seminal fluid?

I had a prostatectomy last October and although I knew it would cause me erection problems little did I know I would be on the sidelines for sex long term! My penis shrank from 6 soft to 2 soft and doesn’t get hard! Wife and I tried to keep intimate with dildos and toys but last Friday she told me she was so Horney for a real penis she can’t stand it! I never thought of her with another man who can get an erection but I’m beginning to think I may offer that option. Any other couples considered?

@billybwbf2 take a look at the discussions under prostate cancer support, if you haven’t already. A lot of info about rehab there that I don’t know 7 years ago. The first year or so your nerves apparently are in a bit of shock. I got no instructions. Didn’t have any decent erections. Decided to give Trimix injections a go. Have a friend tell me about them about 2 years ago and took me more than a year to decide to try. They work magic on me! Gives you an erection that lasts a good hour or more.

I have an enlarged prostate and take Flomax 2X’s a day. In addition I take 5mg Cialis daily. I masturbate probably on average once daily though I don’t always achieve orgasm. At first i experienced retro ejaculations. Later I focused on ejaculating as normal and was able to reverse that. I’m 73 and currently without a partner. Masturbation is as essential an activity as exercise, rest and nutrition.

Thanks for sharing.
How did you reverse the ejaculation? How did you focus on ejaculating as normal? What did you do?
