Does masturbating increase testosterone levels?
Yes it does. Well not masturbating itself but having an orgasm does. It’s the same for masturbation and sex as long as you reach orgasm. Testosterone spike is the reason why men feel a boost of confidence after an orgasm. It’s also the reason why certain sporting organizations such as the Olympics have recently banned the use of drugs like Viagra, Cialis, Levitra, etc. Some men were using these drugs in order to be able to have sex / masturbate a dozen or more times a day which caused there testosterone level to reach over a 4 to 1 ratio. To let you know, when they test for steroids, they look at your testosterone to epistosteron (sp?) levels. Over a 4 to 1 ratio is a fail. Testosterone is an anabolic steroid and these athletes were getting levels of slightly over 4 to 1 just by doing this. Mind you its not going to take you to the extreme’s like artificial injecting of anabolic steroids will (artificial anabolic steroids will give you levels of 6 to 1 or higher).
