The dilemma
On one hand, semen retention appears as the willpower to fight a lowly urge, with the reward of more confidence, energy, and health from the sparing of nutrients (precious minerals, amino-acids, vitamins, rare marrow fluids, etc.), life force, and other vital energy.
On the other hand, there are the studies linking masturbation to lower risk of prostate cancer, and maybe the organism wants to get it out for a good reason.
The third way: a synthesis
Nobody considers that both may be right. How would they fit together then?
With explanations of the processes behind sexual arousal from Aajonus Vonderplanitz (who developed the Primal Diet™ from the 70s to 2013), we can get a better understanding and work out a verifiable viable practice that will at least solve the first half ot the problem.
Expelling toxins
Sexual urges are it seems not always exclusively sexually related.
Women's periods are important detoxification times, where sometimes even whole tumors are expelled! (not a misanthropic joke on child birth).
Similarly, semen is used as a vessel to expel the toxicity present in our bodily tissues.
Semen chemical lab analysis will reveal what those toxins are. Often, they are toxic minerals/metals, that came come from airborne pollution, store in glands, including sexual glands.
These toxins accumulate and cause further damage. When they are stored, they may not produce as much harm, however, as long as they aren't dislodged, they will prevent some proper cellular function and reproduction. This is identified as the origin of increased prostatic cancer.
So, semen may not be supposed to be designed as an evacuation site. However, it can act as one. Wherever toxicity is stored, the body will use all available closest and efficient outputs to get rid of local toxins.
(All emunctories are used are garbage sites, not only feces and urine, but skin through acne and rashes, hair, etc. With our toxicity levels, our body has to use all outputs as dumping grounds, even though they are not supposed to be (when in healthy environments including our own inner terrain). In "nature" even feces is not inherently toxic as many animals eat each other's or even some insects almost entirely subside from it.)
Until all these toxins are removed, semen retention is therefore unhealthy.
When semen retention applies: the less optimal cope, or the end
Semen retention does have benefits on two extremes: when on a deficient diet, or already in optimal shape.
If you are lacking animal products in sufficient quantities, you have to spare your nutrients. Semen retention helps there, but you are at a standstill, keeping your toxins.
Conversely, if you have almost 0 toxins in your body, you don't have to expel toxins that have been stored in glands.
Keep up with the "dumping"
When on a good healing, mainly raw carnivore, diet (such as the Primal Diet™ by Aajonus Vonderplanitz), a phenomenon happens that makes semen retention more detrimental than on a standard diet. It may seem paradoxal, but the explanation is simple again.
That is because this kind of diet enables to get rid of the toxicity (such as airborne heavy metal pollution) stored in glands, including sexual glands.
There is a "dumping" phenomenon, where MORE toxins are released from where they are stored, because the body is confident from the good nutrition it receives to handle it through chelation, and can afford some damage with plenty of rebuilding raw fats and proteins.
Now there is no more choice as they get lined up to be pushed out of the exit. When this takes place, the concentration of liberated toxins will increase. This is like opening the cage of the beast when you have the level. You must deal with it right there.
This usually takes months of semen retention (even with some relapses).
If they are not expelled (by ejaculation) beyond that point, you will get increasing symptoms:
Toxic retention symptoms
Acute pains in testicles.
Apparently unrelated strange symptoms, from toxic restlessness (definitely not from arousal) to debilitating fever.
"crawling" sensations in testicles (endogenously-spawned "parasites" sent in to clean by eating injured/dead tissue)
Toxic relapse symptoms
The "relapse" (oh god!) will feel awful too:
Pain in urethra (sign of toxicity, can also happen from elimination by diuresis when urinating)
Lethargy, brainfog
Articulatory pains in knees, feet, ... (there is apparently a fluid produced in knee joints that goes into semen; if it accumulated toxicity, when it starts being flushed, the toxic load moving around contribute to these painful symptoms)
Diarrhea
Despite this, a need to masturbate more, beyond capacity (limp and dry).
Terrible punishment from God for sinning?
It is rather the result of waiting too long.
Masturbating more regularly, when an urge comes in (whether arousal or pain in sexual area), will eventually show benefits that didn't occur before.
The appearance of testicular pains diminishes.
The urge to ejaculate no longer feels as a "toxic need" (toxic masculinity?).
The hand may not longer gravitate over the groin area when naked (which is quite upsetting)
No longer "draining"
It will even start giving the opposite effect: more energy, feeling of purification, less sleep, and faster ejaculation frequency.
That means that you will not only get a "high" from the ejaculation itself, followed by a "crash", but followed by a gentle wellness that radiates throughout the body instead, in the same vein as the soothing effect of some foods (often fat, milk, vegetable juices) or sports.
(similar phenomenon as when an important bowel movement removes all tiredness, sluggishness, and incomfort; it just disappears along with it instantly)
Facilitating it
Eating plenty of oysters, enough fat, meat, milk, in general, help keep up with the increased production.
Working along with it instead of trying to prevent it is the key (just like microbial/viral infections). Don't try to suppress it with medicines or other processes, just eat and eat, because something big is happening.
Note: to reach the level of detoxification women achieve through periods, would require ejaculating 7 times daily, which requires tremendous and quality eating to keep up.
Though men can barely emulate it, the benefits of are tremendous and can be felt instantly!
Some irregularity
The heavy dumping of toxins may not occur immediately. It may be decided by some biological cycle, environmental condition, food recipes used (oysters, oranges + avocados/watermelon), taking lymphatic baths, etc.
You may get occasional pain in my urethra when urinating or ejaculating again or even more than ever before. That is the sign of the presence of toxins attacking the tissues.
"But am I not just jacking it off too much?" one may then ask oneself.
And that will be very easily disproved. For example, one might have 2 ejaculations with this sensation in the urethra as the semen passes through (sometimes a little before as well, and of course afterwards for a few seconds), and a third one without pain. So it isn't "overuse" (like overtraining in sports which leads to sustaining injuries, since the pain is absent the 3rd time).
Another comparison
A similar experience can be had when on a weight loss diet with only a few raw eggs per day. There won't be any bowel movement for weeks, because there is almost no waste. But there also won't be excess nutrients, especially fats, that can bring on more detox by making solvents and chelating. Never having a bowel movement is neat, but it is wiser to trigger more elimination through the bowels instead, even though it may not be as fancy!
Summary
If abstaining from ejaculating, on may end up losing more nutrients dealing with the contained toxicity and the high concentrations of it may even damage to the point of prostate cancer. This is the explanation for these studies and why doctors recommend it and for once are not completely wrong (even though they may not understand why). However, it feels wrong because you have to realize it is supposed to be temporary (years?) when dealt with with the right remedies.
Aajonus is in line with this.
He says you may start dumping at any time on Primal Diet™, especially if it smells like bleach or molten iron, or rotten oysters.
With the Primal Diet™, you can follow most cravings within the guidelines.
On standard diet if you eat carbs you will rarely get out of the cravings for your life.
However for instance with nut formula, or even cooked starch with raw fat for extreme cases, honey with fat and protein, etc you may consume big quantities and one day the cravings subside: you have just corrected a huge deficiency with efficiency.
Same goes for semen renewal.
The quality of sperm will improve and make for healthier children too.
