I'm a 19-year-old guy and lately, I've been noticing something strange. When I masturbate, it feels good during the act, but once I ejaculate, there's nothinglike, no orgasm or any feeling at all. Is this something I should be worried about?

Hormonal imbalance: Imbalances in testosterone, dopamine, or serotonin levels.

Medications: Certain medications, such as antidepressants, can affect orgasm.

Psychological Factors
