Blue balls and erections?

[Anonymous]

Hi, I'm very curious about how men function down there. My question is, how long can a man have an erection before he gets blue balls? Do blue balls always happen when he doesn't ejaculate? Also, can men fall asleep while hard, and if so, is it something that can happen easily? All answers appreciated, thank you! :)

I think it differs from man to man, as you can see, some even say 'blue balls is a myth' as they've never experienced it. For me it can start somewhere after 45 minutes of continuous edging... And it should be really edging, 'just' an erection will not do it... I think you can compare edging with grinding re. intensity. Just an erection, either man-made or in your sleep will not give blue balls in general.

Once the edging stops the dull pain will go away, but it can take some hours before it's completely normal again. Ejaculating helps greatly lower the recovery time.

Thank you! Haha it's just that I'm in an LDR (never met him before) and my boyfriend says he often gets blue balls from me getting him excited too much when we talk.

[Boromir]

Very well possible if he’s playing with himself during your chats :)

[Asker]

Yeah he does that haha, that explains a lot

[Asker]

He does fall asleep pretty easily though, even when he's super horny, but he's always tired so I assume the tiredness takes over

Guy's don't get blue balls from any old erection. If they did, most guys would get blue balls several times a day. You get blue balls when you are hyper aroused and on the verge of cumming but don't ejaculate. Usually, a guy will need to be in that state of arousal for an extended period of time or repeatedly hitting that state without cumming before blue balls set in. The quickest cure is to ejaculate which receives most of the discomfort very quickly although complete relief usually takes some time (an hour or so).

[Asker]

Very detailed, thank you! :)

Glad to help.

Thanks for MHGuy!

First of all, men don't get blueballs just from having an erection for a long time and not ejaculating. They (might) get it from being very very aroused for a long time with no release. From my experience, it doesn't occur if a man had already came that day.
A man can get blueballs after two hours of being hard (and actively aroused), or after half an hour. There's no precise limit.
I think men can fall asleep while they're hard, and I know for a fact that they can get hard while being asleep.

[Asker]

Haha thank you so much for your lengthy response! :)

[sweetannied]

You're welcome. I have a lot of information about that particular topic and that's the only platform where I can feel free to share it!

[theventrsomeone]

It's possible to stay hard a long time. As long as I'm turned on, erection. Blue balls is an expression about being backed up from not cumming. It can be overcome with masterbation. Falling asleep hard is difficult but waking up that way is easy. Are you doing a study?

[Asker]

So pretty much as long as there is enough visual/physical/auditory stimulation, a man can stay hard for hours? And no haha I'm just curious

[theventrsomeone]

Yes, pretty much. Where are you from by the way

[readywriter]

What are blue balls. I love that imagine?

[Asker]

Haha I don't think you'd like the feeling of it

[readywriter]

i have had blue balls. The Army doctor used to tell us we had to jack off often. Guys who were trying to be true to their wives and girlfriends would complain lot of pain under their balls. Too excited with no relief.

[Asker]

Oh poor men. Yeah I guess jacking off is the way if you can't have sex.

[readywriter]

When he first told me that I thought he was making a joke. But he was dead serious. He saw too much of it. He would always ask if we had any strange stuff lately, of course meaning someone outside our relationship with girlfriend and so on. I was single but I was not into those infected gooks. Was a MP though though at the air strip that I became very friendly with. She had a bigger gun than me. lol

[Asker]

Haha wow crazy story, thanks so much for sharing. I would have thought the doc was joking too xD I wonder how guys that are single and remain abstinent from masturbation do it. I've read some articles that the body just releases itself through wet dreams. But I wonder if the body gets used to that or if they might still get blue balls yet still choose not to jerk off.

[readywriter]

I don't know. lol Butir only happens after heightened arousal with a erection. You see the testicles also get extra blood like the penis for and erection. When sperm production gets crazy with the swelling and doen't get it out you have problem. I don't think all guys get a full d intercourse hard erection from thinking or self abuse. You let me know when you find out.

[Asker]

Lol thanks so much for your input, and for sure!

[ethan45]

Falling asleep with a boner isn't fun nor comfortable if you want to know more add me and we can talk

[Anon-ymous1]

Usually it's simply "I've been hard for a really really long time but haven't fucked a girl" and it just doesn't feel good after a while.

[traveler74]

Blue balls only occur after several times of coming close to ejaculation and then not happening. It takes a while not just one night.
Yes a guy can fall asleep with a hardon. And depending on how tired he is yes it can happen easily

[Asker]

Very helpful, thank you

[traveler74]

No Problem

[Chadster]

When a guy is physically turned on, blood flows to his penis, which is what gives him an erection. Blood also flows to his testicles, causing them to swell. If he doesn't ejaculate, there is a buildup of pressure, and his supersensitive balls feel the brunt of it. This is what blue balls is.

[Deydey12345]

Funny how you copy pasted from the website "cosmopolitan " 😂

[Chadster]

@Deydey12345 What's funny about that, it just helps explain it better.

[Coconut_Man]

Yes you can fall asleep while hard. The average man gets around 5-6 erections during a nights sleep.

As for blue balls. It has never happened to me and I don't even know how it happens tbh. lol

[Asker]

Wow, that's rather interesting haha

[Coconut_Man]

It is. lol

[isweatergawd]

Lmfao it can happen easily. If u have sex and stop u have blue balls. You can't sleep cause sometimes the penis gets hard to let you know u gotta pee.

[Asker]

Lol you're the second person to say you can't sleep but one responder said you can depending on how tired you are

[isweatergawd]

Whoever sleeps with that I feel bad because once he turn to his side and then keep turning he is gonna break his dick. R. I. P.

[Asker]

Omg 😂😂

[metalman12]

Blue balls occur with it happening several occasions without cumming. I can't fall asleep when hard to horny to sleep

[sidvt]

Lol after masterbating or sex person sleeps well as tired but when turned on it takes time to sleep thtsy

[rockrewls]

What trveler74 said, and you just flip on your side and pass out.

[Cannuk22]

Hummm. Why yuh anonymous lol

[Asker]

Because i keep my curiosities hidden haha

[Cannuk22]

Lol. Add me. We can discuss this curiosity lol

[Seppelson]

I never Bad blue balls and I don't think it's existing

[Asker]

Well I guess it's good you've never experienced it

[Seppelson]

I guess it's just a myth to get girls in bed ^^

[Asker]

Lol that's terrible if that were the case but many men here in the comment section have experienced it themselves

[sweetannied]

Either it exists, or I just happened to come across some amazing actors

[Asker]

My boyfriend says he gets them when I get him too aroused during sexting. We are LDR so I can't do nothing about it (help his situation physically) so I believe him.

[Seppelson]

Hmm weird that never happened to ne even if she teases me for an hour and ruins it a few times
