I've done it off and on for years.
Typically make a minimum 30 day requirement when I start.
Very noticeable reboot mentally and physically after 60 days.
Extreme benefits after 90, for me.
I think a key point is to not get frantically caught up in the days and MOST IMPORTANTLY don't hate yourself too much when you do break down and do it. Move on, continue improving yourself. Don't cycle back into hold habits because you broke down.
Also, the prostate thing is incorrect. It is not unhealthy.

Why? What benefit do you derive from abstaining from jack-off? I hear restrictions against Greco-Roman Wrestling with Cyclops is pretty popular with weird cults. So, if you're doing this as part of some social-media challenge you might want to rethink what you're doing with your life.

I NoFap every night when I'm asleep.

I have a friend who swears it's better for you because your more confident in talking to women. Me and the others in our group just say he is probably more aggressive in talking to them but that's him. Me personally I'm flirting with the girl at the store regardless if I fapped earlier in the day or not.

1) Improved sexual function in every conceivable way. Thicker. Harder. Always hard during real sex. Easy to regain hardness after round 1. Zero anxiety about getting and maintaining hardness.
2) Better brain balance - assuming porn is associated with most fap sessions, and even it it's not, still better brain balance.
3) Semen retention is long believed to be very healthy. Wise Eastern buddha's considered one ejaculation equivalent to losing one pint of blood.
4) Better use of time to self improve.
5) Overall you give off a less jerk-off vibe to females.
6A) Once you've stabilized yourself and you start to see and feel the rewards, you become less of a drooling pig around woman, less desperate, less willing just give that load to any who-ore on the street, which in turn makes you more attractive and results in more real sex.
6B) You are less easily triggered by hot images online. You will have more self control.
7) Overall you are more confident, attractive, and healthier bc of the reasons above.

This is fascinating. I'd be ready to knock out the bottom of a boat if I haven't done the deed in 30 days, much less 90

This sounds suspiciously like the millennial sjws who are saying that places like Hooters are bad.

Can you elaborate on this connection?
Or did this just sound good in your head while having no basis whatsoever?

It's referring to life-force and fung-chi and other meta elements.
It takes about 6 weeks to fully recuperate from donating a pint of blood.
The belief is it takes the body a similar amount of time to fully recover from an ejaculation.
What you all must understand is tantric sex without ejaculating and ideas such as redirecting sexual energy to elevate consciousness is built alongside these philosophies and beliefs.
To be clear, abstaining from jacking off and removing porn from your life for an extended period of time, and then moving on with a normal sexual life with a partner and ejaculating often while continuing to not jack off on your own is still a great idea for overall function and health - NoFap and all of that stuff isn't saying you should wait 6 weeks every time.

Shockingly I've gotten the opposite effect.
Your dick recuperates over the 4-6-8+ weeks that you abstain. You'd think it'd be more sensitive and it is in a good way but also it's more fortified and less sensitive in other ways.
Your ejaculation triggers have changed.
If you've been smart and have done your kegals and reverse-kegals during the nofap time then your pelvic floor should be solid as well.
The first time I did nofap I went 8 weeks. Also did the kegal work. First sex was 45 mins of blasting and I never finished. She couldn't go on.

You have herniated 3 disks trying to suck yourself off. Quit lying, Bradley.

So does sex interrupt the nofap benefits??

Yes and no.
Say you've been whacking forever. Lots of porn. Etc.
I'd go into a reboot. A minimum 30 day no porn. No edging. No touching your dick unless you're peeing.
Obviously if something comes up sexually and you don't want to turn it down, go for it. You live once.
Once you've reset yourself mentally and physically having sex again shouldn't bring you back to zero - as long as you maintain discipline and not beat off, especially not often, or for a long session, you should maintain and continue to grow with benefits.
I've seen a lot of people talk about practicing tantric if they have a partner and want to reboot. You'd still have sex but not finish. That branches off into more discussion about channeling sexual energy and stuff like that.
A side note: There's a lot of talk about what is called dead-dick. Like dead-arm in baseball. If you stop beating off you'll probably hit a phase at week 2ish for a week or longer where you really aren't horny at all and your dick just is not alive. Getting over this phase is huge. When you come out of that is when the real benefits start to show and healing has occurred.
I'm not expert. Or a doctor.
I've just read a lot online and know that I've greatly benefited from taking extended time off and then focusing on real sex once I've rebooted, and it seems a lot of guys have the same positive results.

I'm guessing these are issues you dealt with as you got older?
No matter how much I've worked out, my body has always known when it was game time.
