Men around the world have officially finished No Nut November, and now it’s time for the next challenge.
While these blokes have been completing the viral challenge abstaining from touching their meat and veg, they’ll now have no other choice but to go ham on themselves.
For those of you who don’t know what No Nut November is, it’s an entire month where men stop pleasuring themselves and some even avoid watching pornography.

The main goal is to not ‘nut’.
But come December 1, they’ll be letting themselves have it.
The No Nut November Reddit page is always full of congratulations around this time, with some patting their mates on the back for their efforts.

One member said: "Congratulations! You can be proud of this achievement!"
Another added: "I just woke up from my nap and it just ended 2 hours ago for me. 4th claim this year. I'm proud of you c*mrade. Now go, blow the biggest nut. Till we meet again next year, peace."
For some people who do No Nut November, they’ve come to the conclusion that holding off from ejaculation for a whole month can produce mental clarity and an increased sense of self-confidence.
Many of those who've completed it say it makes them feel 'really good' by the end of the month.

But just know, there’s no shame in failing No Nut November.
While it might be different for some participants, Dr Rena Malik explained that the benefits of not nutting could help boost your fertility when you finally do have sex, but overall there wasn't much of a reason to do it, especially not for 30 days.
She explained that while there aren't any huge health problems caused by participating in No Nut November, it doesn't really help much either as you'll miss out on the benefits of masturbation.

She said: "There's a number of benefits to masturbation including better sleep, decreased heart rate, decreased stress and a lot of increase in feel good hormones.
"People can get a lot of pain and discomfort in their pelvic floor, or their testicles."
Hello blue balls!
As for feelings of improved mental health and increased self-confidence, there may actually be some truth there.

The self-discipline required to make it through 30 days without orgasming proves to participants that they can set a goal and achieve it.
Now that No Nut November is officially over, blokes are gearing up for one hell of a December.
And we're not talking about the festive season.
Some people like to balance out No Nut November with Destroy D**k December and make up for some lost time.
There's no set rules when it comes to this additional challenge, but blokes are given free reign to nut as much as they like.
