Answer

Mere indulgence in long Brahmacharya does not lead to the Urdhvaretha state (non-semen producing Yogi). To reach this state and empower the body and mind with the superhuman abilities and God-realization that follows, Brahmacharya has to be very properly carried out with the aid of thorough transmutation of semen into Ojas through means such as Bandha, Pranayama and regular God-meditation on a daily basis along with strict adherence to other Yama and Niyama.

The production of semen is controlled by the mind. In the normal person whose mind constantly indulges in thoughts pertaining to sexuality, the production of physical semen is continuous. In a Yogi who has reached the advanced state of an Urdhvaretha, the production of semen stops further to lack of a sexual signal from his mind for the body to produce semen. Then, Prana is directly converted to Ojas except for a small part which still becomes semen in order to nourish and maintain the physical body. As soon as such a Yogi enters marriage and wills to accomplish the act of reproduction, the production of semen resumes immediately. This is very simple and instantaneous further to the fact that the mind acts as a switch in the release or non-release of semen. No release of semen is possible in any man, be he an Urdhvareta or not, unless the mind gets into the sexual mode. Similarly, it is impossible for any man including an Urdhvareta to prevent the formation and release of semen if the mind does go into the sexual mode. This is the basis of Brahmacharya and why maintaining a pure mind is necessary, for unless the mind is kept clean, Brahmacharya is not possible in totality.

A real life example of this fact occuring in the 'Ramayana' is that of the great sage Maharishi Vishwamitra who had lead a life of Brahmacharya and tapas (penance) for a very long time. Upon seeing the celestial damsel Menaka and developing a sense of attraction, he succumbed to cupid and married her, giving birth to a daughter.

(see:http://www.kidsgen.com/fables_and_fairytales/indian_mythology_stories/vishwamitr)

An urge in the mind to perform sexual activity for reproduction immediately results in the formation of semen which is then expended during the reproductive act. This process occurs within seconds of mental willing and is instant.
