Summary

This study asks 100 adult men to stop watching pornography for 30 days and tracks changes in nighttime erections, sexual function, and mood using a wearable device and surveys. Participants first observe their normal habits for a short period, then compare results during abstinence. The goal is to understand how pornography use affects individual sexual health.

Who is studied

Adult men who are interested in evaluating how a 30-day period of pornography abstinence may affect their sexual health, nocturnal erections, and overall well-being. Participants are self-selected volunteers who report current or recent pornography use, are able to attempt abstinence for the duration of the study, and are willing to use a non-invasive wearable device to collect nocturnal penile tumescence data and complete electronic questionnaires. The study population reflects a real-world, consumer-based sample rather than a clinically diagnosed population.
