Max9 every male needs to be erect once a month
Is this true? I admit its not my field of specialty but looking at the research suggests that this is a misleading statement.
As far as I can find out, no one has done studies to determine this either way. There is a Finish study from 2008 (questionnaire only) that suggest that men who engage in regular sex in middle age get less erectile disfunction than their peers that don't. The study did not include masturbation. But it could well be that those with erectile dysfunction at the beginning didn't bother to try and have sex in the first place, possibly out of misplaced embarrassment. There were many other confounders too.
There is other evidence that sperm count decreases with men who have less frequent sex. But sperm count is a function of many things including hormone production and a man who suddenly finds a new and willing partner could well get more sex drive and increase their sperm count.
There is plenty of anecdotal evidence on websites that men who are locked in chastity cages initially suffer painful trapped erections. For those that persevere, within a week or two these subside and from then on wearing a cage is reasonably well tolerated. Its harder to know whether once men are released from such devices after a significant duration, if they lose the ability to erect. Personally I doubt it and I would be professionally interested in any male experience on this forum who has personal knowledge of such.
The problem is that there are many causes of erectile disfunction. The biggest would be obesity, hypertension, diabetes and smoking. basically anything that increases your risk of heart attacks or strokes. Note to cannabis users - smoking cannabis is far worse than smoking cigarettes - not because of the cannabinoids but due to the nature of smocking vegetable matter laced with fertilizers and God knows what.
(Was this off topic and is anyone interested? Probably not Lol 🤣)
