Does Precum Reset Your Progress?

I’ve been avoiding PMO to fix my premature ejaculation problem. This is the only problem I have left from SE. I used to have a problem with erections but I’ve stopped over masturbating and I’ve been taking horny goat weed. But If I even get aroused for a second and then try to think of something else as quickly as possible, I get rock hard and I leak precum for a good 20 minutes after. Does this reset my healing progress or am I still healing as long as I don’t masturbate or look at any porn? I have ashwagandha and shilajit coming in the mail to help speed up the recovery process. I just want to make sure I’m actually making progress.

There is no scientific research about any of this. I cannot for the life of me imagine that dirty thoughts and the reaction they trigger could be bad for you. On the contrary, arousal via your mind and not images on a screen is the result you’re after.
