What Causes Reduced Semen Ejaculation And Does It Affect Chances Of Pregnancy?
Hi, I am a frequent masturbater, 3-4 times a day, everyday. I ve noticed that I don t really produce a lot of ejaculate anymore if at all and well, my wife and I are wanting to concieve for a child, I was just curious as to how this would affect our chances in trying to become pregnant? Thanks in advanced.

Hello there,
Imagine your semen stores to be like a bottle kept under a tap. It needs time to fill up. If you masturbate frequently then when you ejaculate the volume of semen would decrease with each ejaculation . So if you are planning to conceive then avoid masturbation for some time and you would see your ejaculate increase in volume.
Hope this helps you.
Please feel free to ask for any further clarifications.
