Most of the posts above are about right, but there are a few disturbing things mentioned. First off, you don't produce more or less sperm by masturbating. Your testes produce millions of sperm daily at about the same rate--the sperm cells take 48 hours to mature and be released. Second, The testes produce the smallest portion of your ejaculate--there are 4 other glands that contribute larger portions than your testes. By the way 10cc is the average production at any one time. (there was a rock band by that name also--10cc). Third, the only time you have to worry about killing off sperm is if there is damage to or removal of your testes--radiation, castration, cancer things like that. And finally, yes you will continue to produce sperm probably until the day you die, however, as men age the quality of the sperm does decrease--that means they are less able to swim to the egg, more of them are defective too.
So, not to worry if you are masturbating, this is normal, healthy and any sperm you lose will be replaced for the next time. Did you also know that most of your ejaculate is sugar water--that's what give the sperm part energy to swim to the egg.

You will continue to produce sperm throughout your life. Most men can still father a child well into their 70s or 80s. Sperm naturally die after a few weeks, and are replaced by new sperm. It's a continuous process. In any case, there isn't much other than severe radiation poisoning or extreme heat that is going to kill your sperm.

what method was your sperm killed? deadly radiation, thermal injury, chemical, pharmaceutical, suffocation? as a general rule, the body makes millions on a daily basis, especially if you masturbate daily (or more). so, if you do something horrendous to your testicles, yes, they may not produce anymore...

I know what you are worrying about and let me assure you that you don't use it all up masturbating. You keep on producing until you are an old man unless you get yourself fixed later on in life.
Worry about the next ball game and not about your little swimmers.

Your body produces millions on a daily basis so don't worry.
