Masturbation-acne in males does exist!

I believe, through 3 years of experience and wondering the same thing as you, that there is no correlation between masturbating and acne. What you need to do is have a good regimen, and stay away from excessive amounts of the following: peanuts, butter, and olive oil. So, to the regimen.

1) buy Neutrogena Grapefruit Oil free acne wash (it's pink)
2) buy a tube of Persa gel 10 by clean and clear
3) buy Cerave PM moisturizer

You will wash your face in the morning and at night. Preferably in the shower for maximum coverage. So, start with wetting your face with warm water, then rub the cleanser all over your face. Next, rinse thoroughly, then dry face. Apply Persa gel 10 all over face, rub in. (MORNING) Wait 15 minutes or more, then use the moisturizer and apply it all over face. At night no moisturizer, apply more Persa gel, so it will really keep it clear. Make sure to put on moisturizer because it dries the c**p out of your skin if you don't. Also applicable to neck and back, but don't use moisturizer. I know this works, GOOD LUCK!

^ GTFO,were all sure that there IS a connection.

Well that's great for you that for YOUR OWN body there is no correlation between masturbating and acne. You can't expect everyone's body to be the same can you? I know for a fact that I get acne from masturbating, it's obvious for me because I don't have acne otherwise. I mean its BLATANTLY obvious. I assume that only a few people have this "disease" if you will. You're just lucky. Don't discount others experience.

This happens to me all the time! It's the worst feeling ever. The only cure for this is having sex after. Why? I do not know, but it works everytime. My girlfriend and I proved it to be right. If your single and you have no partner I recommend you workout therefore you sweat and you can wash all that junk off, wash your face three times a day first with hot water to open and clean out your pores and secondly extremely cold water to close them up and trust me you will feel cleaner, take a multi vitamin once a day, take an omega pill, drink alot of water and stay away from fatty foods especially fast foods and lastly DO NOT STRESS OVER IT! take a nap after it always seemed to help me. Well I hope this helps out : )

Dear all, I have also the same masturbation-acne related problem.

my question to u all is that--

1. Has anyone taken Roaccutane to solve this problem?

2. If so what is the result?

Because if the result is positive, we should take this to solve the problem as we have no other alternatives.

I stopped masturbation and my acne cleared up.But then the ugly thing again reared its head in another form.I started having nocturnal emissions and they are worse.I am breaking out like crazy after a nocturnal emission.I have done everything so far to control my acne,but how am i supposed to stop a thing harming me which is not under my control?At this point of time i'm not asking whether masturbation causes acne.No,i'm already 1000% confident that my system responds negatively to masturbation.But is there a way to stop nocturnal emissions,but its absolutely disgusting...I'm suffering for no fault of mine.I've given up masturbation too,what more ??? Its a bloody sin to deprive someone of the right to masturbate.May nature burn in hell.

very very interesting discussion!!! I red it all and I have to say : Completely the same things for me! If I rub on my palm, a few days later when Im lookin into the mirror, I see the ugly results... I just got one question:When I stop masturbate, but make love to my girlfriend once a week, will there be a problem or not?...and an other question I got is:There is a point ner your palm between the palm and your ass...IF you press it hard, there will be no cum. you got your orgasm but there wont be anything to ejaculate, its completely dry..My question now : Does it change anything? is it only the fluid that increases your acne, or the whole process??Thanks for the fast answers, im now on day 4 without masturbating. Lets keep it going!

guys what all you need to do is :

*drink plenty of water daily,it reduces pimples.after u have masterbated >go drink water.

*wash your face with cold water after u have masterbated.

*while masterbating u should not heat up n avoid sweating.IT should be done in a comparatively cold place.

 

maybe it depends on you if this method is applicable for you...it is normal to men to ejaculate.....but let me try this.

Yes it happens with me. I can't have as much sex as I want to because I will get acne and it takes weeks to go back to normal. I don't know why doctor's are not researching on this angle. 

My experience.... When I masturbate on a steady schedule one a day or every two days my acne increasing diminishes if I stick to the routine. However, I have seen that if I dont for a few days or off routine my acne comes back. I have taken accutane and used many products. Honestly, the best routine I have found was a gentle cleanser( many people use to many products which agitates and causes more acne), benzaclin/clindamycin mix (its a gel, forgot the name), and a steady schedule of choking the chicken. I believe masturbation directly effects acne in some people. As I believe I am one of them, I recommend trying a steady schedule of masturbating will only benefit your acne in reducing it and promoting good health. With that said, I would be detailed as you can about your routine... Almost specific to time of the day because I have seen some instances where my acne comes back or attempts to if I vary in time. I believe its worth a try for some. Good luck. 

Life's a hell.Wasn't long ago that i noticed that the occurence of acne and masturbation wasn't a mere happenstance.Jolly well i stopped masturbating .I did for weeks and noticed a positive change in my skin tone and acne almost immediately.But then this built up sexual energy started to manifest itself in the form of ugly nocturnal emissions .So much so ,that it amounts to the same.Now i don't masturbate but the regular nocturnal emissions which i have makes me breakout.

I find this ludicrous,i mean what more can a guy do? I have sacrificed masturbation to get clear skin and even then! I may as well consider hacking my testes one day.I wish i was a girl.No testesterone=No acne.

I have a question.When science has progressed so much that it has found cures for almost all critical ailments then why the hell is there no permanent remedy for acne? Just because its not life threatening doesn't means that it has to be taken lightly.I'm sure all acne sufferers are well aware of the amount of trauma it causes to us,both physical and psychological.It seeps away your mental strength and lowers your self-esteem to zero.

You want to hear about strength? Strength is not masturbating for 2 years during the peak of your sexual life - 20 to 22. Years lost forever.

I am now 23, and, despite a few aberrations, I have managed to keep a clear face for the last 6 months or so, having indulged for a period of some months at the start of 23, when I was particularly down. It's BS that we are put on trial each and every day; I am tired, and don't have the will power to continue. My job is meaningless, my relationships are stunted. I need a woman, but am too reserved and shy, and am constantly worried that my acne will flare up if i become intimate with her, as it has in the past. Destiny has played me a terrible and cruel hand, and so I will wait and hope that things will change. That's all I can do - oh, and not masturbate, which is never easy.

Remember, there is great strength to our sufferings, even though we may feel weak on the inside. I managed to survive those two years through perseverance and will power. That's the power I was given. Everyone here has been given that gift, warped though it may be. You've been given a chance to discover yourself and your values, that's priceless. Have patience and remember that no one moment is too hard to survive. The instance between a heartbeat is all you have to suffer, which is forever manageable.

But to end on a lighter note, when I finally did masturbate after the two year hiatus it felt like God touched my penis it was that good. I would say try it just based on that lol.     

 

 

I'm 17 and masturbating gives acne don't masturbate for a month = clear acne

It's all true. I am 100% clear because I have abstained from orgasms on a regular basis.
