Ejaculating but feeling no orgasm

Hello, I am a perfectly healthy and fine 16 year old boy. I have never had sex so the chances of this being an STD are ruled out. I'm not sure why this happens but I can feel all of the pleasure of masturbation up until ejaculation where feeling stops and I don't feel an orgasm at all but I still ejaculate. This has been happening every single time I've masturbated for about the past two or three months. I have no clue what's happening, what is wrong with me? Any ideas?

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!

hmm never touched sports drinks or suppliments .. have been on courses of anti depressants but mine started long befor that .. im 30 dont even bother with sex or finding a lass now as lost too many as they got frustarted with my lack on enthusiasm for it. only masterbater occasionally (just to keep things flowing you know) but even that does nothing for me ... i just gave up and thought there was soming not right with me ...as much as i feel for your plight im glad to see im not the only one... that seems harsh to be glad of someone esles misfortune or what ever you want to call it ... it would be nice to see if an answer or "cure?" was availible for this .. hopefully it can help you guys out .. for me i think even if there was one .. me i dont know .. its most likely mental issue now .. as i cant even work up the will to try again

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.
