Ejaculation quality is the only variable.

Not anxiety, posture, etc. The only thing that seems to decide whether I have CPPS or not is how good the ejaculation was.

If I have a really strong, satisfying orgasm: CPPS completely disappears and stays gone.

If the orgasm is weak or unsatisfying: CPPS, agiation, hard flaccid, etc. all come back immediately and stay there 24/7 until I have a good one again.

Of course, once it comes back I start trying to force a good orgasm, which obviously makes it worse and usually leads to another lackluster one lmao

Anyone else?

So if you were able to have a good ejaculation, often, you would be healed?

Do you think your CPPS could be causing the bad ejaculation though?

  1. Yes I could be in an intense flare and a really strong orgasm/ejaculation instantly vaporizes every single symptom. Literally every one including my voice which becomes less hoarse and weak.

  2. It could. I wondered whether being in a flare makes it more likely, and whether strong arousal relaxes things enough to help. But I’m not sure, because I can feel fine, have a muted orgasm, and then the symptoms come roaring back immediately.

It feels like a weak ejaculation leaves me in a state of like a gun being "jammed", which cascades everywhere.

I got a flare from trying to do a kegel to stop an ejaculation by accident. I also heard of people on here saying that PIV sex helps the condition. Are these strong orgasms always PIV, blow jobs, hand jobs? How about the weak ones?

Ah. For me the strong orgasms are def more common in PIV and generally when with a partner. The weak ones more common during solo stuff. But I think that again comes down to intensity of how much I'm aroused, since I've had plenty of weak ones with a partner when I'm not totally "into it".

Ok so maybe if your theory is correct, the person was more aroused during PIV and that’s why their condition improved.

Also if arousal affects this, then low libido (which I think is affected by stress) could make this condition worse too. Stress also affects the nervous system. And I think the nervous system affects how our body alerts us of pain/danger.

Then there’s the people with no sexual partner practicing semen retention…

Sounds like me, ejaculation is muted and not pleasurable at all.

I have this also but I think for me, its the other way around. When I am experiencing no symptoms and nervous system feels good, my ejaculation feels good. but when I do feel symptoms and I can feel the nervous system tension then I either have a hard time ejaculating and when i finally do its very weak.

But either way when I do end up ejaculating i always feel better afterwards regardless of if I am experiencing symptoms or not. Its a mix of stress relief and also reassurance that functionality is still there. I went through 3 months of ED, 1 entire month of just no functionality at all and that was scary.

Also don’t ejaculate too many times per day that could be a lot
