What does not ejaculating for a week do?

In most cases, not releasing sperm or semen shouldn’t affect your health or sex drive, though there are a few exceptions.

You don’t need to blow a load to orgasm.

Contrary to popular belief, ejaculation doesn’t have to accompany climax. You can totally have one without the other.

That said, whether it’s an issue really depends on the cause.

Intentionally abstaining

Intentionally abstaining from ejaculating — or semen retention — is basically what it sounds like. It’s the act of avoiding ejaculation. People who practice Taoism and tantric sex have been doing it for centuries. You can abstain from ejaculating by not engaging in sexual activity or by teaching yourself to orgasm without ejaculating. People do it for various reasons. For some it’s about spiritual or emotional growth. Others believe it could improve their fertility. There are also people who believe it increases physical strength and builds muscle. There aren’t any known side effects to semen retention, so retain away if that’s your thing. What about NoFap? NoFap, though part of the same conversation, isn’t the same as semen retention. The NoFap lifestyle promotes abstaining mainly from masturbation and porn — with some NoFappers choosing to abstain from any sexual activity — all in the name of rebooting sexual behaviors for a better life. Proponents believe it can help cure compulsive sexual behavior. “Fapstinence” is also supposed to offer a lot of the same emotional and physical benefits of semen retention and then some, but most of the claims aren’t rooted in much scientific evidence. FYI: Most experts agree that masturbation is healthy — yes — even if enjoyed with a side of porn.

Anejaculation, primary or secondary

Anejaculation is sometimes called dry orgasm. People with anejaculation can enjoy pleasurable O’s and produce sperm but aren’t able to ejaculate.

Anejaculation is classified as either primary or secondary.

If a person has never been able to ejaculate semen, they’re considered to have primary anejaculation. If a person loses their ability to ejaculate after having been able to before, then it’s considered secondary ejaculation.

Anejaculation can be caused by:

Infertility is a possible side effect of anejaculation. Depending on the cause, treatment may help restore fertility.

Retrograde ejaculation

Retrograde ejaculation occurs when semen enters the bladder instead of exiting through the penis. When it happens, you still get all the sheet-twisting feels of an orgasm, but ejaculate little to no semen. According to the Mayo Clinic, retrograde ejaculation isn’t harmful but can cause infertility. The only other possible side effect is cloudy urine after you come, caused by semen in your pee.
