Can you have marital relations during reboot?

Hi - new to the reboot process. Is it okay to have sex with your wife, or should you start with a minimum amount of time with no PMO?

This is gonna be hard (excuse the pun).

Thanks.

In my experience, contact with your wife helps recover faster, with one caveat. Don't orgasm yourself for quite a few times (I waited more than 10 successful sex sessions), lest you get pushed into a longer flatline (state of no libido) than the one you should already be expecting.

I have found that sex with my wife is a much better alternative to masturbation or porn. After you go about a week or two without either and you turn to her to meet your sexual needs it feels much better. Some people have mentioned before that after sex you can have an increased surge or desire for porn use as a heightened sexual need. I haven't experienced this too much, but then again, the first month or so can feel like all you want is more sexual release, in my experience anyway.

THAT'S true in my case, the morning after I have sex relation, I feel craving for porn and masturbating.

Strongly agree with this. I would add that it is important to focus more on bonding with your partner and if having sex with them is triggering or increasing cravings and urges afterward, you can try "Karezza". Look for Cupid's Poisoned Arrow by Marnia Robinson.

I also noticed that I had better sex with my wife if I took my focus off myself almost completely and put it on her pleasure. Also try not to touch myself at all if I want something in particular I'd ask her to do it instead of doing it myself
