is it ok to stop ejaculating for 3 months straight??

hello. i am considering stopping masturbating and ejaculating completely for 3 months. is there any risk of physical harm in doing this? can one harm their physical sexual health by doing this? what could happen? i know it will be hard, and there will be mental and some physical symptoms. this i expect.

but what i am wondering is is there any danger of long term damage if i dont ejaculate for 3 months straight?

what happens to all the semen that is built up? where does it go if i dont release it? does it just sit there in the scrotum? is that healthy?

please advise. thank you

There must be alot of people who don't ejaculate for over 3 months straight, so don't worry about you being the pioneer in this field.  The sperm ur testes produce only survive for a short time in your body anyway so there will be no build up as ur testicles re-absorb ur sperm and produces new sperm cells.  This is happening as we speak (or type).  So, this vow (or dare) that you will embark upon will not harm you.  (If it's a dare, no chance you'll make it through the 3 months, lmao)

I'm not an expert on this but I would think that any excess semen would be discharged during your sleep in the form of a wet dream.
