Men take to Reddit to share their experiences

A Reddit forum has devoted an entire conversation to ejaculation, and men are recounting their different experiences. One of them explains that the most times he ejaculated in 24 hours must have been around 5 or 6 times when he was in his 20s. Another revealed that he went dry after 8 ejaculations, but that if he had drunk more water, he could have gone up to 10 or 15 times.

Another man said that his record was 14 times in 48 hours, but that although his testicles did not hurt, his penis was still raw. Finally, it seems that a man can ejaculate up to about 6, 7 or 8 times a day. But it all depends on the person, his age and his shape at the time.

The refractory period is crucial

To be able to ejaculate again, men have to wait until the end of the refractory period, the period after ejaculation, when it is no longer possible to be erect. At this point, the sexual urge may disappear and the penis may be too sensitive to touch... It is therefore not possible to ejaculate any time soon!

In fact, this period can last from a few minutes to several days, depending on several factors, explains urologist Jamin Brahmbhatt in MEL Magazine. But the average is 30 minutes. It depends on the age, arousal level, hormones and health of the person. By the way, this also applies to women, it is not necessarily possible to go for another round immediately after having cum.
