Dry orgasm

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In sexology, the term dry orgasm describes the orgasm without an effusion ( ejaculate ) of a male child who is not yet sexually mature . In medical literature and colloquially, the term is also used for an orgasm without visible ejaculation in a sexually mature adolescent or adult man, for example during injection , retrograde ejaculation or the closure of the ejaculatory duct .

Physiological basics

Male reproductive organs

The ejaculate in a sexually mature man, i.e. the sperm , consists of cellular ( sperm , epithelial cells of the testicular tubules ) and liquid (seminal plasma) components. The seminal plasma is made up of secretions from the so-called accessory sex glands : spermatic duct ampoule ( Ampulla ductus deferentis ), seminal vesicular gland ( glandula vesicularis ), prostate gland ( prostate ), bulbourethral gland ( glandula bulbourethralis ), and to a lesser extent also the testes and epididymis . Although the male genital organs are already fully developed at the time of birth, further differentiation only takes place during puberty under the influence of sex hormones . In the course of this development, they achieve their full functionality, including the ability to produce fertilizable sperm, at the time of sexual maturity ( Spermarche ).

Before puberty

The ability to orgasm is given from birth or at the latest from the age of 3. In pre-puberty boys, the ability to have multiple orgasms, even after hours of masturbation, is not uncommon.

Of the accessory sex glands, the prostate, in particular, is able to form a secretion even before the onset of puberty when stimulated accordingly . In male children it is therefore quite possible that one or more years before sexual maturity during an orgasm an - albeit very small - excretion of predominantly prostate secretion ("seedless effusion") takes place. A prerequisite for this can be a particularly strong expression or development of the primary sex organs, a slight sexual excitability, a strong sexual interest and more frequent sexual activity (mostly masturbation) that is perceived as unencumbering, pleasurable and satisfactory. In the overwhelming majority, however, male children will experience a dry orgasm before sexual maturity with sexual stimulation up to climax.

After puberty

There is no scientifically recognized evidence for a dry orgasm in a healthy sexually mature adolescent or man without invasive manipulation . Even if no more sperm can be expelled after multiple orgasms, the prostate in particular, together with the other accessory sex glands, still produces a more or less small amount of secretion for an ejaculate. As long as an orgasm can still be achieved, the accessory sex glands are also stimulated, which automatically leads to the production of secretions. This can be produced much faster than new sperm. If the sperm supply is exhausted after several orgasms in quick succession, the stimulated prostate in particular can still deliver a small amount of secretion for ejaculation when it reaches another orgasm.

After surgery

Even in the case of sterilization , an orgasm is associated with ejaculation (in the narrower sense of the definition, only excretion ), but such excretion no longer contains sperm.

Likewise, after a castration (complete removal of both testicles including the epididymis), a dry orgasm does not occur. As long as an orgasm can still be achieved through sexual stimulation, secretion without sperm is also triggered. This fact was already known in the late 16th century in Europe, as a letter from the Nuncio of Spain to the then Pope Sixtus V. seen. In this he asks for an opinion on the clarification of the marital capacity of castrati, especially for those who lacked both testicles and were nevertheless able to have sexual intercourse and ejaculation, but, as the nuncio said, not a "true seed", but only a seed-like, Brought up liquid "unsuitable for procreation and for the fulfillment of the purpose of marriage".
