    Whether it is harmful to hold back semen without ejaculation needs to be analyzed based on the specific situation. If you hold back semen without ejaculating occasionally, it will generally not harm the body. However, if you hold back semen without ejaculating for a long time, it may cause certain harm to the body.

    Clinically, this kind of situation often occurs in some patients. Generally, it is necessary to extend the duration of sexual life and hold it in properly without ejaculation. To improve the quality of sexual life, the frequency of holding back menstruation should not be too high. It is generally normal and does not require special treatment. If you hold it in for a long time without ejaculating, or hold it in without ejaculating during sex, it may also cause congestion of the prostate or seminal vesicles, edema, and prostatitis, which is generally not good for the body.

    In daily life, men should strengthen exercise to help increase physical strength and relieve fatigue.
