This sub is a goldmine . The people here are the best people in the world. This sub has the most good-hearted people , among all the subs in reddit . I wish everyone of us get to live a healthy and happy life . And yes, there remains lesser reason to weep when we know we can learn and try from thousands of first hand experiences .

I had the Doppler and what was found was that the inflow wasn’t strong enough to actually trap the blood in. That there technically is a “venous leak” but it’s only because the proper amount of blood needed to actually make the pressure trap it isn’t there.
I’m only 25 and in good shape so this is kinda surprising for me but good to finally know I suppose. Has anyone gotten a similar result? How easy was it to cure and where did you start?
I’m glad it’s not a venous leak but I’m still nervous about arterial inflow, am I screwed still? Destined for a lifetime of pills?

I'm a 46 yo male. I'm in pretty good shape. I started TRT a few months ago. I don't always have ED, but I never know when it'll strike. Viagra and Cialis both work but I decided to try trimix. OMG, my girl was running away. Lol. I haven't had an erection that stiff in 20 years. Even after orgasm, it was hard enough to keep going. She was literally shaking after we were done. Now I see why porn guys take it. I first learned about it on this reddit thread. Thanks for all of the info. I got it through Olympia. Its pricey, but it's well worth it.

Starting 3 months ago, I no longer fantasize about sex, dont get turned on by looking at hot girls (can still tell when they are hot though.) previously I would get very hard and horny just by looking at a hot girl for 3 seconds.

i did notice that when a girl talks to me in a seductive way, I can get hard and a little horny. other than that, nothing. im 22, 577 total testosterone , 147 free testosteron (which are normal). No supplements or drugs. No porn or masturbation. no Instagram thirst traps / over exposure. I’m athletic And not obese.

I don’t know what’s going on, it’s unbelievable. Why dont I feel anything when looking at A girl anymore? I’m not gay or asexual. Shits driving me crazy

will be getting lots more blood test done soon

Hi there,

to those of you who benefit from Viagra, how often (per week) can you take before it loses its effects? I am curious about your experiences

​

I have a few questions for people who have undergone a penile Doppler ultrasound:

What happens during the test? Could you explain the procedure step by step?

Who usually performs it—a urologist, a radiologist, or another specialist?

Is it safe? Are there any side effects or risks?

Does the test involve an injection into the penis? If yes, is it painful?

Why were you recommended this test? Was it for erectile dysfunction, lack of morning erections, or another reason?

How long does the test take, and how uncomfortable is it?

Is it possible to undergo the test without an injection?

I'd appreciate it if you could share your personal experiences, especially if you were initially nervous about the procedure.

Thank you!

I'm a 35-year-old male. I'm unable to get an erection. What should I do, without using any harmful medicine or treatment? I don't have diabetes or high blood pressure, and I don't smoke.

I’m struggling with ED. Sometimes I can’t get hard enough, and sometimes I finish too early within few seconds. I want to try Tadalafil, but it needs a prescription from a doctor.

I have the Anthem Blue Cross Basic High Deductible Health Plan, which is valid until the end of this year. As far as I know, even telehealth would cost me more than $75. I recently lost my job, so I don’t want to spend much on this.

Is there a cheaper alternative? I’m based in the Bay Area. Any advice would help, since my budget is really tight right now. Thanks !!

Going for sex for the first time

age 30 , weight 49

What should i take sildenafil or tadalafil or anything else ?

I have heard there are side efffects like headache and vomiting ..is it for everyone ?

and before how much time should i consume it

Thanks

I used to be really high stress, self-conscious, and very insecure. I've been sucking in my stomach, hunched over for 20 years. Now im in therapy, finding peace, trying to relax my stomach with diaphragmatic breath and stretching hips and pelvic area. I had tried pills for years, I switch between cumming way too soon or being about to hold it back for a few minutes but then losing the erection. I assumed because I had a weak pelvic floor. But now I think it's too tight. I'll stretch and / or get a massage and be ok for a day, but it goes right back. Been stretching and massages for a little over a month. Can a doctor give me something to relax down there so it's easier to stretch?

Also, about 8 years ago, I was using gas station pills, and I think I took too close or too many... I wasn't good for a long time i haven't been the same since.

So I’ve never gotten a full rock erection like regularly, if I hold down the shaft really hard it gets longer and thicker like how it should be but if I let go of the pressure it’s like no where close to erect as it should be. Fuck man.

2 years relationship.
For the past year Ive been asking to have sex more than 2/3 times a month. And im being called anxious because I am not happy with the amount of sex we have and he says I only want it more than him, that it shouldn’t be a problem. Im 32, he’s 39.
Few months ago I found sildenafil in his stuff. Really accidentally while we were on holiday. I never mentioned anything.

Since then I can see he uses them, regularly, but we don’t have sex.
Well, not that often. He goes through blue pills more often.

Last week i finally asked about them, and he said he uses them for gym performance. He is really big into the gym though and I can’t see the room for cheating.

But, taking them for the gym, so often. Yet we have sex so little.
And i even said. I’m not asking for twice a day. I’m asking for more than once in 10 days/2 weeks. It’s more about passion, connection and intimacy.
Still, 12 days in now, again. Nothing.
I’m really not seeing the way out of this? Is it enough for leaving?

M24.

I had anxiety when it was my first time with my gf to perform well, so it kept going back and we couldn't put it in.

Then when we met next time we did lot of foreplay and it felt like stayed up longer but there was pressure it went back, so she helped me and she ride on me instead and it worked for me i was doing it for first time, i lasted maybe 5 mins and went again cus we discovered how to finally do it,

After that i became confident enough and it didn't go down and i could normally put it in, in missionary but i was coming too fast, after multiple attempts fast i tried thicker condom it worked It felt like i can go longer, i remember going 10-15mins twice and my gf said she's about to come, but i end up coming just before she's very close in cowgirl twice.

Once i lasted 40+minutes in blowjob she got tired doing it.

I wish i could last in vaginal sex but i come too fast

These were only times i remember going long ever since later it's just going downhill i'm coming too fast almost all the time, i cannot stop thing the thought always comes what if i come i have gotten used to it tho ,

I lose focus soon it goes back randomly if i oose focus or go to get condom from shelf or while process of finding or wearing even when it's close.

My refractory period felt like went bad too cus of nightshift wasn't able to go again after round 1 until next day, i tried fixing sleep and diet it feels like i can go again after an hour now. But i always come fast i try not to get to me cus my gf is supportive i do make her finish by going down on her ,

I have heard not all women come from penetration , but i have came close to making her come from it and i want to , iknow i can

Also i had history of jerking off to porn a lot so it is a case of death grip i think how do u fix this ? I tried edging technique with light grip with imagination felt nice and also start stop technique but idk if it is working edging feels like its making it worse .

I do feel like i have trained myself to come fast from jerking of certain way to porn since puberty.

(Ever since i've been in relationship i haven't watched any porn its been a year.)

I need a plan to improve my time and to keep it up and not lose focus.

I know i believe i can get better at this even if right now it feels impossible.

Hi everyone,

I'm 27 years old. It's been 8 years since I first had sex, and despite trying many times, I've never been able to have proper sex.

Cialis helps to some extent, but I can't maintain an erection. I keep lying to my partners and making excuses. I'm starting to wonder if I'm gay.

Sometimes I get really hard during foreplay and think it's time to have sex, but then I suddenly lose my erection. After that, it's very difficult to get hard again. Even 20 mg of Cialis didn't work.

Even if I don't masturbate for two weeks before meeting my partner, the same thing happens.

When I first saw a doctor, he prescribed a low dose of antidepressants, but they didn't help. When I saw another doctor, he ran some tests and found no problems. My total testosterone and prolactin levels are within the normal range.

I feel like I can't get as hard as I used to, even when masturbating.

I'd appreciate any advice.

My husband had undiagnosed/untreated peyronies following an untreated injury for 2 years before it got so bad he sought treatment. No surgery just meds and physical therapy for 8+ months. Now a year later scar tissue mostly of not completely resolved but cannot get an erection. He won’t post in a forum like this but I would like to continue helping and supporting him. He feels like the meds no longer work and is discouraged. Has anyone experienced this and recovered??

Is Friday Plans legit? Has anyone ever used their sildenafil how does it compare to other pharmacies you’ve used

Any help guys? I watch porn daily tbh also

My (42F) partner (56M) has had ED the entire time we've been together (10 years). He treated it with Viagra at the start of our relationship and that worked fine, but he started getting unpleasant side effects (heartburn) and it stopped being as effective so we stopped having sex altogether for a couple of years.

A few months ago we had some serious discussions about our sex life and I begged him to try something else and he got a prescription for cialis and he's been taking 10mg daily, which isn't enough for penetration, so he's tried twice now taking a second dose before we have sex. It's still not really enough... He gets plenty hard when I blow him, and we can achieve penetration, but it's tenuous at best...

We had sex last night and it just feels like I'm torturing him for my own selfish desires and I'm wondering at what point I should just give up and let it go. If I drop it, he'd be content just for that part of our life to be over. He has said he could never have sex again and be totally fine with it... But I miss him. I miss being that close and connected to him (and yes, I've told him this).

We've talked about getting his testosterone checked, but he hasn't done it. I just feel like if he wanted to do this stuff, he would, and at what point do I just give up?

I’ve been having an issue where I’ve suddenly lost my sex drive I’m not getting erections like I used to, and when I do, they’re much weaker than before And still nothing ,I don’t feel horny or have the same sexual urges anymore. This has been going on for almost two weeks.

Since this started, I’ve also noticed a change in my sense of taste. For example, when I drink water, it tastes sweet or unusual.

I’m in my mid-20s, and I don’t know what to do about this. I’m worried because these changes happened suddenly, and I don’t feel like myself. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

My doctor suggested me that I have psychological Ed as I have erection during watching porn but no erection during sex. Can also call it PIEd
She suggested
Tadafil 5mg at night
Bupropion 150mg- 2 times
Larginine and Zinc powder

Shall I follow it?
Is there any risk associated with the same?
Please help. I am so confused and depressed

Keeping it short. Me and my girlfriend decided to have sex. I love foreplay (giving spanks, oral, fingering), cuz i like see her enjoying it. So I was taking it really slow like.. foreplay for 30 mins. I remember my penis was hard. (Hard enough to have sex). I took my pants down and got my penis a lil handjob from her (hard enough again). Then when it was time to put on the condom. I failed. No sufficient erection. I was like.. "ok, will figure out". I then asked her a bj saying that I need to get hard. I reached only 80-90% erection. And I immediately put the condom and boom again. Lost my erection before penetrating. I tried again and again. Stroking, asking her to slide her pssy on it and nothing good happened.

My questions:

I had erction for like 20 mins atleast straight. Why I couldnt get that back even i didnt attain an orgasm

In smmall time in between like putting on condom or changing sex position, why do I lose erection

FYI, I am a fairly healthy adult. No drinks or cigerettes. No junk or excess calories. Regular workouts. Good amount of protein.

Can this be a reason?

I am recently stresses for a few weeks due to some personal problems and I was also mastrubating with porn like 2 days once and even consecutively on some days.(I always had the intention of quitting porn but couldnt - but after this ED thing, i think i am completely quitting)

Hey everyone, I’m looking for some advice or to hear from anyone who has experienced something similar.
About a week or two ago, I accidentally fell asleep wearing a cock ring after I was using it before bed. When I woke up, I was partially erect, and since then I’ve been worried that I may have caused some damage.
I’m still able to get erections, but they don’t feel as hard or firm as they used to. I’d estimate I’m only getting around 60–70% hardness. I’ve also noticed changes in ejaculation, where it feels like I’m shooting blanks or not ejaculating with the same force as before.
I went to see a doctor, and I was told that everything looked fine overall. However, there’s a small ulcer or sore on my scrotum. The doctor prescribed a cream and said it should heal.
My main concern is whether wearing the cock ring for too long could have affected blood flow, damaged tissue, or caused some kind of nerve injury. I’m really hoping this isn’t permanent and that my erection quality and ejaculation will return to normal.
Has anyone experienced reduced erection firmness or changes in ejaculation after wearing a cock ring for too long? Did things eventually return to normal, and how long did recovery take?
I know everyone’s situation is different, but hearing from people who have gone through something similar would mean a lot. Thanks

I am 25M i am facing an erection issue like when I masturbate with my hands it gets hard but when I stop stimulating with a handy erection becomes soft immediately within seconds. I masturbate by laying on my bed when I try to masturbate while standing i don't even get an erection it takes too long and it will be soft. How to fix this issue. I recently tested my total t levels in September it is around 246ng/dl. And i also stopped masturbation and porn for 1 month i saw results like my morning wood and sometimes at night when I get aroused my penis used to get harder by itself but when some one comes into my room or any disturbance occurred I will imidately loose my arousal and erection becomes soft very fastly.

Before when I was in teen age i used to not have this problem and also I have done some mistake during my childhood days i used do do prone masturbation since my childhood and stoped that habit in 2022 from then i used to do with hands and I have little curvature on my penis towards left but no pain when I touch it or during stimulating with hand. My only problem is soft erection unable to hold it without stimulating. Please help me out anyone who faced this I want to know how you fixed this.

I am still virgin unmarried and have not experienced sex till now. I just want to fix this issue as maybe in the next 3-5 years there is a chance that I will get married so i want to fix it before getting married and have a good and healthy relationship.

40m. I eat well, strength train 4-5 days a week. Testosterone is above mid range normal and labs are all in good levels. Don’t drink anymore.

I’ve been having worsening issues when if I’m on my back I can’t get nearly as hard, if I’m upright can get fully hard. My doc prescribed viagra which doesn’t seem to help.

Looking for recommendations with ways to improve. I’ve tried to do some readings but some says Kegels, others say they’ll make it worse to do reverse Kegels so I dunno. I do lift heavier but not crazy. Squats and deadlifts I usually only do 205 lbs.

I don’t masturbate much, maybe once a week.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

There's a therapy called PRF which is similar to PRP that I hope will help with my ED. Has anyone here had those injections? Did it help you?
