Lack of morning erections and softer( quicker to die down) erections..

I tend to agree with your assessment. The penis is susceptible to injury when forcefully manipulated beyond its natural limits. Why not try the ED drugs to see if they would help.

I guess Ill try...



I just hated the way he blew it off...gave me some samples and said itll come back to normal.

I took Cialis once and Viagra once....each one time in a 4 month span. I guess Ill need to try atleast one or the other a few more times and see, no?

Hi James: I am HUGE believer in NOT reading things on the Net, except for my posts ;-) What I will tell you is the same I tell everyone else, "Start out with the obvious, THEN work your way up, Don't start at the top - most serious diagnosis - then work your way down".

IF you had torn a vein in your penis, let me tell you - you WOULD know it - o.O So lets look at more plausable explanations. In the last 9 - 12 months, has your stress level increased? Has there been problems at work, home, friends, lovers etc? Stress is the BIGGEST killer of sexual drive. Just like the old saying "not tonight I have a headache!" still applies, if you are anxious or stressed out, your boy will feel it and show the symptoms of that stress.

How long have you been going out with this girlfriend? This will also be playing on your mind, even though you are not a virgin, there is a LOT of guilt that go along with that! So subconciously, you feel inferior too her, because she can hold out, but you didn't! Depending on your upbringing, and religious belief, it could be that little nagging conscience making you feel bad.

As you get older, your "Instant Tent" will start to subside. Thus your doctors statement. He is basically talking about not having to talk about "Erectile Dysfunction" YET he had NO problems giving you some of the same drugs!!!!!!!!!! 8-|

I am not a big believer in drugs, except for my "special" cookies ;-) XD There are herbal medications that have been found to be very effective. And they don't say "If you have an erection longer than 12 hours seek medical attention!!!!!" o.O o.O o.O

But 1st I want you to really look at what changed 9 - 12 months ago? And even though I am SURE you like being sexually active!!! Take a real look at how you were raised, and how sex was talked about etc. You can have hangups and not know it! If nothing can be traced to your present situation, then talk to a person at the nearest health food store. I know turned on Goat Weed - has been useful, but like any other medication, you have to be careful!

Since you have been checked out by a urologist, obviously you are fine, AND your heart is fine too. ALSO just thought of something, do you smoke? Smokers can have an increased amount of labido!! So good luck, and just relax and check out the differences in your life.

I forgot to mention in the original post that I'm able to get erections to masturbate. I can masturbate and ejaculate anywhere from 3-6 times a day if I want.

So it is not vascular, because if you had hurt yourself even this wouldn't happen. As I stated originally, if you have a lot going off in your mind - even in your dreams, it WILL affect you physically. There is obviously nothing wrong with you when it comes to physical stimulation, but that can't be said when there is nothing "helping you along". So look back and think about the last year. Good Luck

I've been with my gf for 2.5 years.

I don't smoke..never have. Never done any drugs either.

I might have been stressed these past few months but stress had never been an issue before with my erections. There was even a span about 2 years at when I would say i was depressed and I was sexually active with a girlfriend at that time with no issues.

What really has me worried is the possible penile injury might of caused.

Present time I would say that this problem occupies all my thoughts. It's the last thouhght when I go to bed and first when i wake.

I think this says it all James! It is constantly on your mind, even when you are doing things. You stated - on your original post - that your gf believes in waiting till marriage. You just mentioned that you ahve been with her for over 2 years. So this could be also included with it.

I think for you to REALLY injure you penis, you would have had to do something MAJOR too it, it's not that sensitive! Unless you had a hard kick there, which is more likely to damage your testicles than your penis. You have to think of this way, IF it was vascular, you could NOT get hard at ALL. Because - as you know - the only thing that makes you hard is blood flow and urine! PLUS when you do masturbate, it WOULD hurt.

I TOTALLY commend you about honoring your present girlfriends wishes, and good for her. That said, there HAS to be a strain on you - physically and mentally - of NOT having sex! 3 -6 times a day IS excessive, and obviously you are sexually frustrated. This in itself is a form of stress, and when you mentioned about having depression, sometimes depression can make you even MORE sexually active.

I think because you ahve not been able to have that "real" sexual release, it IS affecting you consciously and SUBconsciously! I don't know the answer for you. The only thing I would suggest is talking to your girlfriend, and telling her your side of this. It is VERY commendable and growin in popularity by the way, to wait till marriage. BUT that said, 2 years of no sex for a previously sexually active guy, is a LONG LONG time. You have reached the "promised land" and now you are told you can't back in and will have to go on a "waiting list!" So I TOTALLY understand, and I now hope you do too. Why this is all happening. And I think a big heart to heart is needed. Good luck hon!

I haven't told my girls friend anything...I think I've decided to tell her about whats been going on.

Defiinitely hon, and also tell her how you feel about her and hopefuly you love her - which I think you have already proven too her. BUT she also needs to know that you aren't going anywhere - if you aren't. And how you feel about everything. Honesty is ALWAYS the best! All the luck hon, and I think she will totally understand. As you have been SO understanding of her positions

Im have only just turned twenty and have had similar issues for the past couple of month and the doc blew my issues of too after several tests...effin doctors...

what test did he run on you?



Did you tell him all your symptoms and such?

Lots and lots of blood work and ya i told him my symptoms, he told me i was to young to be having those type of symptoms but i insisted that he do something!

Yea I heard that from my Primary Doctors partner when I saw him about a month ago. I wish it were true....I seriously don't wish what Im going through on my worst of enemies.

On the 22nd of this month I have an appointment with my primary...whom I've been with since I was 18(25 now).

I'm going to be hearing the results of my latest blood test and I will be explaining to him all my symptoms. I will be telling him everything and let him know I've been reading up lots on info on the subject.

My next step will probably be making an appointment with a Urologist at the local University Research Hospital(University of Miami/Miller Medicine, formerly Jackson Memorial)

This whole problem has me on the brink of depression. Its all I think about....how its not normal, a year ago I was waking up with erections....getting them at night and having spontaneous ones regularly during the day.
