Can PE cause infertility?

Hello ,

I am considering trying PE but I am concerned having looked at the types of exercise carried out, that they may possibly have an adverse effect on fertility? I appreciate that stretching does not really affect the testicles, but squeezing and vacuum pumping the base of the penis near the testicles and vas deferens seems as if it could have a possible adverse effect on their function?

I was wondering if a survey had been carried out on this, I.e. Whether people who have spent time on PE have been able to conceive children easily thereafter, or whether some members have had fertility issues (although I appreciate any fertility issues would not necessarily be attributable to the exercises). I’m just interested to know! Has a large sample-size survey of men’s fertility after PE ever been carried out? I appreciate that there will probably be guys who have had children after doing PE, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it cannot be harmful to others? And the manufacturers of devices say that their devices are safe but has any reliable evidence ever been collected?

Best of health to all

If you are worried then don’t do PE exercises. It won’t cause infertility but worry will.

While I don’t have medical research, I assume that the only way PE could affect fertility is in a mechanical sense. If you damage your unit, you cannot plant the seed and thus conceive. There is a thread on these boards of an extreme example of a guy who lost his unit from banding it too tightly and for too long.

But fertility (the powerful stuff located in your testicles) is separate from the penis. The penis is a delivery system.

I don’t believe there are any fertility statistics regarding PE, however unless you actively put serious stress on the actual nuts I would not worry at all. Diet, exercise and genes play a greater role.

It’s a fair point. But when you say ‘it won’t cause infertility’ is there much evidence to support this? If there was sufficient evidence, worry would not be needed!
Thanks

Proving a negative is hard. Unless there are any credible sources that claim PE could cause infertility I will say no It will not with great confidence.

Proving a negative is hard, but has anyone reading this done the exercise routines for a long period of time and then gone on to have children with no problems? I would be very interested to know! If enough people have then that would be a good evidence base to suggest that it’s safe.

I’ve been here a long time and can’t remember anyone saying PE caused infertility.

You should not do PE! You do not have the right outlook. Infertility with PE exercises is really unheard of yet you want some long term study done. With that outlook, even if it just happens to rain on the day you want to play golf, you will blame PE. Go and have a great life with what you have. Yes that’s possible!

Dude… the guys just asking a valid question. Why the tone and dismissive statements. Aren’t we here to help each other? If his question bothers you so much just recuse yourself from his thread unless you have actual useful intent to help him.

Dude the guy is asking a question with no basis in fact whatsoever. You think that’s a good attitude to start PE? Haven’t we all read enough post with “I jelqued one time and now my dick is ruined and I want to kill myself?” Being scared about something where there is plenty of info to read about is not something to try if you have issues with it. That can only lead to disaster. I am supporting him by telling him not to do something he has reservations about.

👌 ok.

I can confirm. I’m 100% fertile since starting PE. Also, I had a vasectomy a year into it, but I’m not sure that’s relevant. Not even sure why I bothered mentioning it.

It’s funny; we all stumble on a site like this and whether we want to do it, need to do it, or whatever we make ourselves believe we have to do it because others are doing it. If we don’t we’ll lose our wife, our girlfriend, our whatever. Do it because you yourself would like to, do it to see if it’s even possible but don’t don’t it if it’s really is not what you want to do. Your life will be the same with our without PE.
