Myth: Does Donation Kill Your Sex Drive?

The Libido Myth: Does Decoration Affect Sex Drive?

This widespread myth prevents thousands of young men effectively from donating. Let's kill it once and for all.

The Facts

  • Testosterone: Donation does NOT lower testosterone levels.
  • Erection Quality: Donation does NOT affect blood flow to the penis (once volume is restored in 24 hours).
  • Sperm Count: Zero impact.

The Only Rule: avoid strenuous physical exertion for 24 hours. Sexual activity is classified as exertion, so maybe take a break for one night. That's it.
