👋 Hi there, I hear you – this is deeply distressing. But you’ve taken the brave first step by asking. Let me give you clear, honest answers – no fluff.
🔍 First, understand what’s likely happening
Symptom Possible Cause (Given your info) Penis shrinkage (length + width) Rarely true tissue loss. More likely: weak erections (venous leak, hormonal, or severe anxiety) + cold/cortisol stress response → temporary retraction. No sperm release during sex Not “no sperm” – likely anejaculation (no ejaculation) or retrograde ejaculation (semen goes into bladder). Stress + anxiety are top causes.
✅ You have severe emotional distress, high stress, low libido, no prior checkup – this points strongly to psychogenic & stress-induced sexual dysfunction, not permanent damage.
💊 Cures & Treatments – What Actually Works
📏 For “Penis Shrinkage” (Perceived or Real)
Cause Cure Weak erections PDE5 inhibitors (Sildenafil/Tadalafil) – restore full size during erection. Doctor prescribed. Stress-induced retraction Therapy + relaxation techniques + sleep improvement – penis returns to baseline. Low testosterone Blood test (morning total/free T). If low → TRT or lifestyle changes. Fat pad over penis Weight loss reveals hidden length.
⚠️ True permanent shrinkage is rare without scarring (Peyronie’s) or hormone depletion over years.
💧 For “No Sperm Release During Sex”
Type Cure Anejaculation (dry orgasm) Often stress/drugs/nerve issue. Try: pelvic floor physiotherapy, low-dose alpha-blockers (like imipramine), or vibratory stimulation. Retrograde ejaculation Semen in urine after sex. Treated with pseudoephedrine or imipramine (opens bladder neck). Psychological anejaculation Sex therapy + cognitive behavioral therapy – very effective.
📌 Your Immediate Action Plan
Step What to Do 1️⃣ See a urologist (me or local) – get physical exam, morning testosterone + prolactin + thyroid blood tests 2️⃣ Urine test after orgasm – to check for retrograde ejaculation 3️⃣ Start stress management TODAY – 10 min deep breathing, walk daily, reduce caffeine 4️⃣ Do not ignore emotional distress – counselor or online therapy (BetterHelp, etc.)
✅ Bottom Line – Hope Is Real
· No permanent damage likely. Most men recover fully with correct treatment. · Cure exists – but first you need a diagnosis. · You’re not broken – your body is reacting to stress. Fix the mind, the body follows.
You’ve suffered silently for 6+ months. That ends now.

Hello, thank you for sharing your concern. A true permanent “penis shrinkage” is uncommon. In many men, the penis may appear smaller temporarily due to stress, anxiety, low libido, weight gain around the abdomen, cold exposure, poor erections, hormonal issues, excessive worry about sexual performance, or reduced blood flow during erection.
Lack of sperm release during sex (reduced ejaculation or no ejaculation) can happen due to: • Severe stress/anxiety or depression • Hormonal imbalance (especially low testosterone) • Erectile/ejaculatory dysfunction • Excessive masturbation/porn-related performance issues • Certain medications • Nerve-related causes or diabetes (less likely if otherwise healthy) • Retrograde ejaculation (semen going backward into bladder) in some cases
Since you also mention severe emotional distress and reduced libido, psychological stress itself can strongly affect erection quality, ejaculation, and sexual confidence.
Important points: • Avoid panic, many causes are treatable • Do not use random “sexual power” medicines or online supplements without evaluation • Adequate sleep, exercise, stress control, and reduced pornography use (if applicable) can significantly help • Smoking/alcohol/drug use should be avoided
You should ideally get evaluated by a Urologist/Andrologist or Sexual Medicine specialist.
Recommended investigations may include: • Testosterone level • Blood sugar (Fasting/HbA1c) • Thyroid profile (TSH) • Prolactin level • Semen analysis • Physical examination by specialist
Seek medical attention sooner if: • Complete inability to achieve erection • Pain, curvature, or hard plaques in penis • Burning urination or blood in semen • Testicular pain/swelling • Severe depression or suicidal thoughts
Prescription: 1. Regular exercise and weight control advised 2. Adequate sleep and stress management strongly advised 3. Avoid smoking/alcohol/recreational drugs 4. Avoid self-medication with over-the-counter sexual enhancement products 5. Urologist/Andrologist consultation advised for examination and hormonal evaluation

Hello
A true permanent reduction in penis size is uncommon. Stress, anxiety, depression, poor sleep, low testosterone, weight changes, reduced erections, smoking, certain medications, and chronic emotional distress can make the penis appear smaller or less full because erection quality and blood flow are affected. Severe stress alone can significantly affect sexual performance, libido, ejaculation, and erection strength.
Lack of sperm release during sex can happen due to problems with ejaculation rather than sperm production itself. Causes may include psychological stress, low testosterone, nerve-related issues, medication side effects, retrograde ejaculation (where semen goes backward into the bladder), or erectile dysfunction. Since you also report reduced libido and significant emotional distress, both physical and psychological factors may be contributing.
These conditions are treatable, but the treatment depends on the cause. A doctor—preferably a urologist—may evaluate hormone levels such as testosterone, thyroid function, blood sugar, and overall sexual health. Treatment can include managing stress and sleep, improving cardiovascular health, counseling or therapy for anxiety, treating erectile dysfunction if present, or addressing hormonal problems if found.
Avoid unproven “penis enlargement” pills or online treatments because many are ineffective or unsafe. Seek medical attention sooner if you develop pain, penile curvature, testicular swelling, inability to achieve erections, urinary symptoms, or complete absence of ejaculation.
Take care
Hello Thanks for sharing your concerns—penis shrinkage and lack of sperm release during sex can feel alarming, but let’s break down what might be happening and what you can do.
### Possible Causes - Penis shrinkage: This can be due to anxiety, hormonal changes (like low testosterone), side effects of medications, or blood flow issues. Sometimes, temporary shrinkage happens due to stress or cold, but persistent changes need medical evaluation. - Lack of sperm release (anorgasmia or dry orgasm): This can be caused by hormonal imbalances, nerve issues, medication side effects, or psychological factors.
### What You Should Do 1. See a doctor (urologist or endocrinologist): They can check hormone levels, review your medications, and do a physical exam. 2. Don’t self-medicate: Avoid trying supplements or medicines without medical advice. 3. Lifestyle tips: Manage stress, eat healthy, exercise, and avoid smoking/alcohol.
### Is It Treatable? - Most causes are treatable once the underlying issue is found—sometimes with medication, hormone therapy, or counseling. - If you’re on any medicines, let your doctor know, as some can affect sexual function.
Bottom line: These symptoms are usually reversible with proper medical care. Please consult a specialist for a thorough evaluation and targeted treatment.
Thank you
Your symptoms of noticeable decrease in penis size, reduced width, lack of semen release during sex, lowered libido, and significant emotional distress for more than 6 months may be related to stress, anxiety, hormonal imbalance, erectile dysfunction, reduced testosterone levels, pelvic floor issues, or ejaculation disorders such as retrograde ejaculation or low semen production. Chronic stress and emotional strain can strongly affect sexual performance, erection quality, and sexual confidence, especially in the absence of other medical conditions or surgeries. Since these symptoms are persistent and affecting your mental well-being, it is important to consult a urologist or sexual health specialist for proper evaluation, which may include hormone tests, blood sugar testing, physical examination, and assessment of psychological stress factors. Many causes are treatable with lifestyle changes, stress management, counseling, pelvic exercises, or medical treatment depending on the underlying cause. Seek medical attention sooner if you develop pain, swelling, urinary problems, or complete inability to achieve erections.
A true permanent “penis shrinkage” is uncommon, and stress, anxiety, poor erections, hormonal imbalance, weight changes, reduced blood flow, pelvic muscle tension, or erectile dysfunction can make the penis appear much smaller and reduce semen release during sex. Low libido and absent/reduced ejaculation may also relate to psychological stress, hormone issues, nerve problems, medications, or conditions affecting the prostate or reproductive system. Please consult a urologist or sexual health specialist for proper evaluation, which may include hormone tests (testosterone, prolactin, thyroid), blood sugar, examination, and assessment for Erectile Dysfunction or ejaculation disorders, especially since this has caused severe emotional distress.
When dealing with changes in penis size and ejaculation issues, it’s vital to consider underlying factors such as hormonal levels, health conditions, or lifestyle changes. For the perceived shrinkage, potential causes might include reduced blood flow, hormonal imbalances—like low testosterone—or stress and anxiety. A first step would be to see a healthcare professional or an urologist for a thorough examination, including blood tests to evaluate testosterone levels and potentially, an ultrasound to check blood flow. Lifestyle interventions like reducing stress, stopping smoking, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy diet might also have positive effects on circulation and testosterone levels. More specifically, engaging in pelvic exercises like Kegels can improve muscular support, which might contribute to both size perception and ejaculation.
For the lack of sperm release, consider seeing a doctor for a full sexual health assessment. Absence of ejaculation, also known as anejaculation, could be due to medications, surgery, or certain medical conditions like diabetes or neurological disorders. Reviewing medications that can interfere with ejaculation and consulting an endocrinologist for hormonal evaluation may reveal insights. Treatment could range from adjusting current medications under physician guidance, starting new medications to stimulate ejaculation, or even pelvic floor therapy. It’s equally important to keep track of any additional symptoms or patterns, as these can direct the healthcare provider to more specific diagnostic tests.
Addressing both issues requires detailed professional evaluation to determine if common underlying causes exist or if they are unrelated concerns that need separate management. Immediate medical attention would be necessary if there’s sudden, drastic change in symptoms or if accompanied by pain, fever, or any indications of potential emergencies like penile trauma or infections.
