hitler_the_goat answered Wednesday August 19 2009, 11:38 am: yep. not permanently, but doctors advise people trying to have kids to have sex only once every three days for this reason. its like having a stock of 200 million cars on your lot, you sell about 100 million of them, and it takes a few days to get your baseline stock back up to the original 200 million.

karenR answered Wednesday August 19 2009, 7:18 am: Just to back up the answer Alin gave you...no. Masturbating will not lower your sperm count permanently. It may temporarily lower your sperm count (not enough to consider it a means of birth control), but after ejaculation it immediately begins to go up again.

Alin75 answered Wednesday August 19 2009, 6:07 am: Not in the long term. I mean, if you ejaculate several times in a short period of time it may temporarily reduce your sperm count, but it will have no negative long term effect. Masturbation (or ejaculation in general) is also thought to increase the quality of the semen. [ Alin75's advice column | Ask Alin75 A Question ]
