    My issue began after masturbation. I was going through a brief period of excessive masturbation. Im going to say everyday for 6-7 days straight. I was probably to forceful. Would get close to climax, hold off etc. The end result because all tests were negative, was inflamation, irratation of the urethra. It take a long time to heal bevause we urinate often, and different things we eat, drink effect the ph of the urine. This for me created all the symptoms we talk about on here. Initially i thought it was a bladder infection, the symptoms arr that specific. I up'd my water intake to keep flushing , keep that ph neutral as possible. Stopped all bladder irratants, tone way down masturbation, and when i did, it was gentle. Half a year later.... normal

      when i think about it, i did masturbate daily that time it started, so maybe same cause as yours, or maybe a few things clicking together and there you go.

      My symptoms also started after edging during both masturbation and sex (holding ejeculation). My symptoms gradually got worse over time, finally I went to the doctor as I getting pain in penis, testicals and around that general area, it almost felt like a muscle strain.

      A UTI was not found however as I had a UTI the past the doctor prescribed doxycycline. This did not really help my symptoms, however I did notice I was getting much more frequent erections whilst on this medication. I am not sure if there is a correlation or this is simply a placebo effect.

      My current situation/ symptoms... (roughly 7 months after first symptoms occurred)

      • Still have feeling to urine moving up penis shaft, urine never drips out of penis, seems to be a sensation only.
      • I seem to urinate more... however I have upped my water intake.
      • Reduced sex drive, low libido.
      • Less frequent erections, no more morning erection.
      • Semen seems watery.
      • After I ejeculate it feels like not all of it has come out (muscles that push it out feel weak)
      • Ejectulating in general feels really strange now.. its not really pleasurable like it was before all this started.
      • Penis always has a full feeling.
      • Penis feels a lot less sensitive.
      • Constant sensation on underside of penis tip... this sensation is hard to describe, it almost feels like a scratch inside my penis.
      • When I do get an errection it only really stays hard if I masturbate, it doesnt really get hard or stay hard without being touched.

      Overall all symptoms brought on by holding my ejeculation and frequent masurbation. Think I have did damage to muscles or nerves.. can this also cause infection? At the time it made sex and masturbating a lot more pleasurable... If i knew it would lead to this is would have never done it!

      Also I though laying off masurbation would increase my sex drive... but it just seemed to lower my sex drive further..

      Hopefully someone has a positive recovery story and can share their tips to help this problem.

      did you ever get cured. ive had the same uncormfortable problem of feeling pee in the base of penis head after edging too aggresively.

    yes could be. i guess end of day, i had exhausted all tests with negative results on everything my urologist explained once the urethra is inflammed it takes a long time. symptoms may vary, but what i was going through he said could all be a direct result of the inflamation. asked me to trust him, although it was depressing me, making me feel hopeless, he reassured me that all tests are negative, and it will get better. just time. and the previous mentions stuff.

    yes i drank more water, i found if i didn't drink enough my urine was concentrated. hurt. i shot for 4l a day to keep it as diluted as possible, and no coffee which sucked. prescription anti inflamatory and gentle rreduced masturbation. 5/6 montjs later healed. now im afraid to masturbate to much or too hard. got a good girl, and i tell ya no need for much masturbation anymore lol

    hang in there if tests are all negative it will get better.

      Chris, thank you so much for coming back and sharing your success story. What you went through sounds exactly like what i've been dealing with for the last 4 1/2 months. I realized pretty early on that urinating seemed to make my symptoms worse. Therefore, i've really tried to limit how much i drink. My urologist is treating me with myrbetriq for overactive bladder which he theorizes is from a mild case of prostatitis. Anyway, i have really not wanted to drink more than the minimum needed and only urinate 5-6x per day. When you were drinking that much did you not feel worse for a while? Also, I've recently had a few days where the wet feeling in the tip has gone away, but still felt the strong urge to urinate. Can you remember anything like that toward the end? Thanks again for taking the time to post this. Can't thank you enough! As you know going through this can be very depressing especially on really bad days.

      This sounds exactly like me. I masturbated a lot, had quite dry sex and since then have this near enough constant urge to pee in the penis head, but...also my bladder does feel like its full sometimes, though i am drinking a lot more. im going to see a urologist to rule anything more serious out but maybe it just needs time. Did you ever have the sensation the your penis was wet?

      did you ever find a cure. mines been going on for a year its making me crazy

    No problem. I remember searching around trying to find anyone i could relate too. I wish i had your diagnosis of prostatitis. Than it would have been something at least. But no i drank a ton of water. I wanted my urine as diluted as possible. I found with my urethra issues, that it hurt more the more concentrated it was. Still had the urgency issues, and everything else that may as well have been prostatitis. But for me i drank a lot anyway. And really just trusted the urologist that it may take half a year when dealing with urethra inflammation but it will heal. and it did take 8 months. But it did heal.
