In simple terms, anejaculation is the inability to ejaculate semen (literally, “no ejaculation”). But what causes this to happen, and what can men do about it? Read on to learn more.
Important points about no ejaculation
Having this condition does not mean that a person cannot have pleasurable orgasms. If a person cannot orgasm, it is called “anorgasmia.” It also does not mean that they cannot produce sperm. The problem is, the sperm cannot be ejaculated.
It can also be divided into several subcategories…
- Primary anejaculation Meaning someone has never been able to ejaculate semen.
- Secondary anejaculation It means that someone loses the ability to ejaculate (where before they were able to ejaculate normally).
- Situational non-ejaculation It is when someone can ejaculate in certain situations but not in others. This can be caused by stress, such as performance anxiety, having to provide a sample at a fertility clinic, or having intercourse while habitually masturbating.
- No ejaculation at all Well explained. However, apparently there are cases where men can orgasm and ejaculate while asleep but are unable to replicate the experience while awake.
What causes no ejaculation?
There are many reasons why a man may not be able to ejaculate. The simplest is probably retrograde ejaculation, where semen goes backwards into the bladder instead of out the tip of the penis. But there are many other reasons…
- Disorders that affect the nervous system (such as Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, spina bifida, etc.)
- Spinal cord injury (We know that spinal injuries can lead to all kinds of problems throughout the body).
- Hormonal or physiological Factors (such as stress or fear of pregnancy)
- Serious injury to the pelvic/groin area
- there’s a few Operation This will help save a life at one point, but may result in the groin area being removed or inevitably damaged. This could be something like bladder or testicular surgery.
- drugYes, we know what it does. But it often has side effects — some of which are pretty obvious.
Keep in mind that usually the only way to diagnose aejaculation is to go to a doctor and talk to them – let them take the medical history and see if there are other medical issues.
treat Ejaculation disorders
It’s really up to you and your doctor (yes, I reserved that pun). The solution could be anything from therapy to surgery to vibrator therapy. For anyone who wants to have a baby in this situation, it could be as simple as egg retrieval and artificial insemination. So, nothing to worry about!
While I did learn about “electro-ejaculation” through this research, I couldn’t decide if it was helpful or scary. I ended up just copying the whole thing because they said it better than I could…
This involves direct electrical stimulation of the nerves through the insertion of a lubricated probe. A device called an electroejaculator is inserted into the rectum and applies electrical stimulation. The procedure is done under general anesthesia. A semen sample is then collected, processed, and analyzed for sperm quality.
If the sperm quality is high enough, then the sperm can be used for artificial insemination. Although about 90% of men are able to ejaculate successfully with electroejaculation, about one-third of men experience retrograde ejaculation. If an insufficient amount of semen is obtained, the urine is tested for the presence of sperm. If present, semen is extracted from the bladder for artificial insemination.
The main disadvantage of electroejaculation is that semen quality is usually poor, although semen quality usually improves after multiple ejaculations. Therefore, electro-ejaculation is usually a second choice only after repeated attempts at vibration stimulation have failed. When electro-ejaculation also fails, or if the quality of sperm obtained from this procedure is too poor, many couples turn to in vitro fertilization.

Conclusion
As far as “down there” issues go, this seems to be one of the milder ones (except for the electrode part). You can still orgasm, so that’s awesome!
Even though it may seem like there’s nothing to worry about (unless it’s from a traumatic event like surgery), you should still talk to your doctor. And, if anyone has experienced “electric ejaculation,” let us know in the comments if it’s as scary as it sounds or if it’s no big deal.
