The key is blood flow. There is an Asian custom called milking which causes more blood to flow to the tip. By holding its shape the nerves won't;t get pinched. You see ladies in films smacking their clits for the same reason. You can 'hold your stay' by engaging the **** sensation while you feel ejaculation coming on. Kegel muscle relaxing and tensing can bring on the buildup of sensation back, while you hone the experience.
There may be hope!!
I saw this thread a few months ago when I was exhibiting similar symptoms and felt I owe a response. At the time of reading this, I was having sex or masturbating (well, not literally while reading, but you get my point) and it felt good (not sure it felt as good as usual) and then when I ejaculated there was no pleasure at all. It was not only anti-climactic in the figurative sense, but in the literal as well. What's more, and worse, is that it started to make me quite depressed, and I began to lack even the desire to get aroused. It honestly felt pointless, and since I love sex and all things related to it, and think I am too young to lose that, it was on top of everything else causing me to panic more than I think I would if I were told I had a terminal disease.
But, there's good news! While fishing around for any information I could find -- and there's not much aside from people asking about it who feel the same thing, or else seemingly unrelated problems -- I found something that I thought might be the ticket. It mentioned that overdose of vitamins could be the cause (likely taking too many). I wish I had the link because I can't find it now, but I started to think about it and on top of taking the multi-vitamin a day, I was taking at the time vitamin b-2 and b-6 as additional supplements at the recommendation of a dermatologist for a minor skin irritation on one of my cheeks. I thought more deeply, and it was sure enough just about the time I started taking the additional vitamins that the pleasure stopped. Checked the article again and -- BOOM! -- it specifically stated that a vitamin B-6 overdose may be a reason for the problem. Stopped taking it right away (and the multi-vitamins since my diet is not bad to begin with), and before long (not sure if right away), it was back to feeling great again and being more than worth it.
So, while I cannot say for certain that this is the cause -- it may well have been something psychological -- I'm willing to bet that some of you on here who are suffering the same thing drink a lot of sports drinks and take supplements for one reason or another. Start by stopping those and see if it helps. If it does not, then it is obviously unrelated and I just got lucky. But for me those vitamins are linked to the problem and I have not touched them since, and have not suffered the lack of pleasure that truly scared me. Good luck, boys!
I have this problem too...
started 2 weeks ago.
How i see this is huge problem...
I'm very sad. how i understand, i can't solve this problem by medicine or otherwise.
I hope i misunderstand...
I have the same problem - ejaculation without orgasm...my bf is not happy about it and neither am i, obviously...I am on antidepressants but when i went off them it didn't help - I only lasted about 3 weeks off of medicine, though...I hope more than anything (except for world peace) to be able to orgasm again..good luck, everyone!
I'm glad I came across this topic. I thought that I was the only one with this situation - ejaculation without pleasure. I know what it should feel like. I experienced it about 3 times in my life when I wasn't expecting it. Especially the first few times I came and then never again for over 40 years. I do believe it has a lot to do with the brain or in my case too much stress or responsibility and not letting things go.
spot on answer, I have this too after many years of self analysis I came to the same conclusion, masturbation can become a habitual nightmare, I used to do it so i would sleep easier.
