On your site you said it's caused by being aroused for a long time without ejaculating, but you never said how long it took. When I masturbate, I like to get almost to the point of orgasm, but then I stop, making the masturbation session longer (almost an hour once). It feels really good, but now I am scared that it might not be good for me. What's the deal?

As far as I know, the condition of "blue balls" (testicular vasocongestion) is harmless – although it is uncomfortable. I'm not sure it's the same thing as what you're talking about, though. Your method is just a way to prolong your masturbation session, and you're right – it can result in an excellent orgasm. "Blue balls" usually takes a bit longer to develop – maybe an hour or two of strong stimulation. If I were you I wouldn't worry about your masturbation method. But if your testicles start to ache an hour or so into the session, it's probably just your body saying, "Enough is enough – let's ejaculate!"
