Understanding Your Sexual Drive During Puberty
As you go through puberty, you might notice a strong desire to experience sexual pleasure, whether through masturbation or sexual activity. This feeling is called sexual drive or libido, and it happens because of a hormone called testosterone, which increases during puberty.
How Often Do Guys Feel This Way?
On average, most guys feel the urge for sexual release every two to three days. However, this varies from person to person and depends on factors like age, stress, and lifestyle. Teenagers and younger men usually experience a stronger sexual drive because their testosterone levels are at their peak.
Do I Have to Act on These Feelings?
No, just because you feel a strong sexual urge doesn’t mean you have to do anything about it. It’s a normal biological response, but you always have control over your actions. You can choose when and how to manage your energy.
Using Your Energy for Growth
If you decide to abstain from masturbation, pornography, or other sexual activities, you can channel that energy into positive things, such as:
Exercise – Working out or playing sports helps release energy and makes you feel stronger.
Focus & Concentration – You’ll have better mental clarity for school, university, or learning new skills.
Creativity – You might find yourself more inspired to create, whether in music, art, or other hobbies.
Competitiveness – Testosterone gives you an edge in sports, academics, and personal growth.
By redirecting your energy into these areas, you’re building a better future for yourself and developing strong self-discipline. Puberty is a powerful time—use it wisely!
