There’s this thing where some men want to be able to orgasm with the pressure and fluid of a fire hydrant.

This article will look at the realities, small things you can do to increase ejaculation volume, medical issues, and if you really (after all is said and done) actually need it in your life or now.

FIRST, SOME INTERESTING FACTS


  • Ejaculate is made from semen and sperm
  • The range of ejaculate is between 0.8 milliliters to 7.6 milliliters
  • The average amount is around three milliliters and five milliliters (think of a teaspoon)
  • The average ejaculation can contain about 15 million sperm

THE PORN PREDICAMENT


There besides penis size, there are other factors (for better or worse) that try to define masculinity. One of these is how much you can come.

It should be no surprise that the porn industry is mostly to blame for this. If you’re basing your own “results” against your favorite clip where a guy comes buckets all over someone, you’re in for a figurative kick in the balls.

Porn stars are selected not only for their bodies but also sometimes on how much ejaculate they can products, so you’re already seeing people at the far end of the spectrum. It’s not just that – actors have great lighting, multiple takes, and camera experts who know just the right angle to make it a little look like a lot.

Aka. Looks can be deceiving…and therefore setting impossible and unnecessary standards.

IS IT ABOUT VOLUME OR FEELING?


The strength of your orgasm is not always connected to how great your orgasm feels. Each experience is personal and therefore hard to figure out “if you’re having problems” or if it’s should be considered a problem at all. Generally, the main consensus is, as long as it feels good, it shouldn’t matter the volume.

Unless…

Yes, you saw the “but” coming.

You are trying to get pregnant. In that case, if your load is on the low (even dry) side, then maybe you’ll want to take steps to amp things up.

Aside from that, there are people who just have a kink for lots of cum.

WHY EJACULATIONS MIGHT BE LESS


There are many reasons you might not be a sperm fountain…

HORMONE LEVELS – as you get older, your androgen levels start to decline. This least to weaker orgasms.

PELVIC MUSCLES – It’s not just for women; men need to exercise their pelvic floor muscles by doing Kegel exercises. The stronger the muscles, the stronger the force.

RETROGRADE EJACULATION – This is an actual medical problem. The valve that opens and closes to let your semen out sometimes might stay open and your ejaculate could go up into your bladder. This can be caused by certain surgeries, medication, depression, spinal cord damage, or nerve damage.

UNHEALTHY LIFESTYLE – I know you’re probably sick of hearing this as a solution to life’s problems, but if you don’t take care of your body, it won’t function like it’s supposed to.

WAYS TO INCREASE EJACULATIONS


If you still REEEEEALLY want more, there are a few things you can do…

HEALTH – Eat a healthy balanced diet, avoid sodas and excess caffeine, stop smoking, cease recreational drugs, and get plenty of sleep.

HYDRATION – This one is a no brainer. We’re made of mostly water and even a little dehydration can affect the body in ways we don’t realize (even the ability to focus). Keep drinking a healthy amount of water every day so there are actual fluids to expel.

HALTING – If you’ve ever done a sex marathon, “drained balls” should be a familiar term. The more sex you have, the less you’ll be able to cum (in volume). If you’re going for a “large impact”, let two or three days pass before having sex again.

HEAT – Your man mix is meant to stay at body temperature, so tight undies or hot baths and Jacuzzis might not be the best idea. Even crossing your legs will amp up the temperature – but doesn’t mean you get to man-spread everywhere you sit, thank you very much.

SUPPLEMENTS – This is quite controversial (not to mention little to no actual testing), but there are tons of websites promising that “this special blend of natural vitamins and herbal remedies will ensure” … blah, blah, blah. I’m not going to list any here for that very reason. Taking care of your body in a normal way should be enough.

THE FINAL RUNDOWN


I know what you’re thinking … that’s it’s a bit of a letdown. That there’s no quick fix or solution (like some promise or preach), that will turn you into a firehose. You can get some, small change in volume, but it will take dedication.

But, as I said before, if it feels great, why worry? Sort of an “if it’s not broke, don’t fix it” sort of thing.
