Hey. So I'm 14 and 7 months and can't ejaculate...I started growing pubes and armpit hair a little over a year ago but I still cant! I am wondering how soon I may be able to ejaculate? Im about 4 inches soft and 5 1/2 erect. I have hit a pretty large growth spurt this year (about 4 inches in 4 months). I understand its all about waiting and being patient but I would like to know a time frame possibly. Also, I tend to take hot showers daily which I heard can lower sperm. Is that true? If so would it affect me? thanks for the help!
Hi Troubled,

You should be there, or at least darn close.  Have you ever had a "nocturnal emission" - a "wet dream?"  That's when you wake up with sticky shorts.

What happens when you try masturbating? 

Your penis is normal, it's average sized for an adult male actually, 5 - 5 1/2".

Heat is bad for sperm, true.  That's why your testicles are outside your body in your scrotum.  A hot shower shouldn't be a problem.  It's more of an issue with prolonged heat where the testicles can't hang lower from your body to cool, such as having a laptop on your lap.

Hope it helps.

Thanks! yes I've had several wet dreams throughout the past 6 months or so. It's good to know that I am either ready or almost ready to be able to. When I masturbate I just feel sort of tingly and almost ticklish but nothing ever comes out. Not even pre cum...but okay I understand about the heat then. thanks for the help so far!

Troubled,

If you have wet dreams you can ejaculate. You're really close with the tingling. If you can, just keep going. It may even feel like you need to urinate, so go beforehand, just in case :)

Precum may come as you get older. It's nothing to worry about you're obviously healthy or you wouldn't have wet dreams.

Keep trying!

Hey so I'm still having trouble :/ I continued to try even after the tingly feeling and it didn't work. I have a few questions though:
1.) My penis curves upward as opposed to completely straight when I have an erection. Also, it leans to the left a bit. Is any of that normal??
2.) I feel like maybe my balls aren't quite large enough...Like they have dropped and hang about 2 inches or so from my body, but they don't quite seem large enough.
3.) This is my biggest concern. If I ever feel my sac, I feel sort of like strands or lines of something within it....Along with this, I feel a very small bump on one testicle within the sac. I am almost positive this isn't normal so I am pretty freaked out I guess...anyways please try to respond! thanks

Hey there,
i might not be able to help a lot but i think that number 1 is abnormal, 2 is just you growing and 3 is definatly abnormal.
if i was you, i would get it checked out, it may be embarrassing but, trust me, i had to get my genitals checked out......
just ask your parents to leave the room.

yeahh I thought it would be a bit abnormal at the least...but yeah thats the big problem I guess....Its pretty awkward and embarrassing to talk with the doctor or get checked out when my mom is standing in the room haha but thanks for the advice

Yes number one is completly normal. Just like mine. A lot of guys curve some. I think most of us have the upward curve. It goes in the female better like that.
