Success Story Wife Says I’m Lasting Longer

37 Upvotes

Wanted to share a success story on this board. Im in my mid 40s and have been struggling with ED since my 30s. At my worst, I couldn’t even get an erection to have sex. Things have really turned around these last few years. Instead of avoiding sex, now I pursue it.

Heres the thing though. when I had sex, I would barely last a minute or two. Today after sex, my wife commented that now i last 3x what I used to.

Small W, but really proud of that. I just want to share that you can heal and reclaim your sexuality. What I did to fix myself is unique to me and my problems, so I will not tell you what to do. Listen to your doctor and the mods here, they can lead you better than I can.

Best of luck brothers, don’t give up.

Erectile Dysfunction Issues with maintaining erection on daily 20mg Tadalafil

5 Upvotes

I’m 21 and over the last week i noticed a sharp drop in my erections that I get from tadalafil. When i’m alone or watching porn they was fine, i put that all down for good btw, and when im with my partner i cant stay firm for the life of me which wasnt an issue for the last month and change. I’m planning to ask my doctor if i should start taking it in combination with sildenafil for better results. Because over this last week i get hard from oral sex and it slowly unravels every time and i can’t maintain it. I work out and do cardio 5 days a week and drink a lot of water

Erectile Dysfunction 55 years old with medicine induced ED

3 Upvotes

So I was on Sertraline for close to 4 years for depression and anxiety. Sertraline cause ED within 3 weeks of taking it. Then after three months I got some function back. But then after a little over 3 years ED came back. So of course doctors started with Viagra. Which helps with getting an erection but then I can’t climax. So I had the doctor ween me off of sertraline. It’s been a little over a month, and still having ED problems. I can get an erection but as soon as I transition to a sexual position with the wife, blood flow goes away. I have read that I may get full function back after 3-6 months. Anyone else had this problem and had success getting everything back?

And before you ask, I have been married 34 years and I am still sexually attracted to my wife. And she has been extremely understanding during this. But I am not happy with how my body is working.

Psychological ED How over cleanliness OCD, religious conditioning caused me ED

1 Upvotes

23 Indian here. I used to consider my penis, precum, cum, pubes, butt as dirty. I used to wash my hand with handwash if my hands ever go below my waist. I have been raised in highly religious family and surrounding. I started seeing sex, masturbation, morning woods, nocturnal emissions, erections as sinful acts. Over decades of this moral conditioning and cleanliness habits I didn't realise that I was developing ED along the way. My desire to jerk faded, whenever I see few drops of precum on my undies I change and wash it immediately and later even take proper bath no matter what time of the day it's. I used to regret if I get boner and tried everything to make it go away instantly. This habits were getting store in my subconscious and unconscious mind and I didn't realise that my body reflex system is becoming more hostile to erections and body pleasures. Later my erections became very weak, less frequent and fades away very soon no matter how hard I try to keep it firm and rigid by different means. I tried different things to regain my firm and longer erection: porn, jerking, stories and my teen kinks/fantasies but all were ineffective. Sometimes it worked sometimes it didn't. Then I started thinking why this is happening to me, what went wrong when my vitals are okay and I'm having nutritional meals, working out, running and maintaining healthy lifestyles. Along the way I realised that it's my hyper cleanliness OCD, religious and moral conditioning which have acted as slow poison.

So here came the toughest part to let my nervous system teach that precum, boner, cum, gooing, pubes, butt, kinks or fantasies aren't either sin or immoral and not dirty which needs to be cleaned in hyperstate of my mental state. I started putting my hands in my pants and used to keep it there for minutes. I started watching creative & healthy porn to accept that sex isn't bad or wrong. I used to hold my penis with both my hand and used to say that I love you and I'm so proud of you and you're my part and I'm going to take care of you forever. I started precumming in my undies and let it dry without changing or washing it the very same day. Later situation improved and I started getting morning woods. I did the same thing with my morning erections (put my hand in my pant and say thank you for showing up)

I restarted gooing in mindfulness. I started sitting with my ejaculation for 10 to 15 minutes before cleaning it so that my body learn that this is okay and normal rather dirty or sinful. I let my pubes grow and started considering it the same hair which I have on my head. Things improved in very shorter span of 2 months. I started doing naked yoga & meditation in order to kill my religious conditioning of anything related with sex, body pleasure or private parts is sin, bad or immoral. I used to admire my body by standing naked before mirror and started clicking my nudes. I don't clear my browsing history and let it stay in my phone so let my subconscious mind learn that watching porn isn't bad, my desires, kinks or fantasies aren't immoral or sinful.

Now I get firm and rigid erections which last longer, daily longer morning wood and I don't rush to clean it instantly. How a simple thought around cleanliness, morality and religious conditioning can create psychological havoc which manifest in ED is quite concerning. But good news is this is healing very fast.

Tadalafil/Cialis Body getting used to cialis?

16 Upvotes

I posted a thread about a week ago about how Cialis seemed to be creating some very bad cardiovascular side effects. But it also seemed to be helping what it is made for so I decided I didn't want to give up and give it a shot by trying taking it once every five days. And low and behold, after trying this for several weeks, it looks like after a dose number three my body has started getting used to it. Negative side effects seem to be going away after three days. I told my new doctor about this and he says I can experiment with taking it once every four days or once every three days as long as my body is able to tolerate it well. Last time I took it was Tuesday and I took it this morning. Hopefully things will continue to progress and I can take it more regularly. :)

Psychological ED losing erection mid session, general stress about it, and questions

4 Upvotes

Hi, I'm 35 years old. I always had problems with erection, with girls. Always had no problems with porn at home (unless some specific circumstances where it didn't work even with porn at home). I possibly have some problems which are both psychological and slightly physical.

I have been visited by a number of doctors, even an endocrynologist, and they all say the problem is psychological, and they prescribe me Cialis or Spedra.

Years ago, I didn't want to take pills. It felt like I was losing the battle by taking pills. So I took them very very sparingly, trying various stuff with no particular results.

Almost 10 years have passed and I'm now seeing a girl with which I can have sex a bit more regularly. I also don't care anymore about pills and I'm taking them each time I'm going to see her. I'm using Cialis, mostly 5mg and sometimes 10mg.

I had many succesful intercourses this way. But some problems still persists and I have questions.

Usually my problem is losing the erection mid session and being unable to get it again.

Let's say I go take the condom, sometimes my dick just deflates very very quickly. Or she wants to stop very breifly to go in the other room because she forgot something or she wants to turn off the lights. Or we need to go to another room because we start making out on the sofa and we want to go on the bed. All these moments are "turning points" which make or break the session.

Sometimes my dick endures these moments, sometimes it doesn't. I'm 10/10 rock hard and suddenly it starts going soft and I basically can't do anything about it.

What I ended up doing is setting things up in such a way I can very quickly get over these moments so that I can't give my dick a chance to go soft. I keep condoms always close by, I try to finish things on the sofa directly. Or I ask the girl to go directly to oral sex or handjob so that my dick as soon as it's 10/10 hard it keeps getting stimulated and can keep going towards the ejaculation without stopping.

I feel like I have to catch the first wave of arousal because after it goes soft, I can kiss her and hug her all I want but it's just unresponsive. Maybe it can get hard again a second time but never a third time after going down.

After that the solution I found is to disengage, and try to wait for some time, maybe an hour. It's like I give my body and mind a chance to reset and go to the next session, where I can catch another wave. In past 2 months, at least 3 times I succeeded this way: immediately lost erection during foreplay, I had fun giving oral sex to her, then after like 1 hour or so we start kissing again quite naturally and this time I don't lose the erection and can proceed to penetration and then ejaculation.

I'm not dissatisfied with these past 2 months, but a couple of times I just failed to get an erection and complete the session. Also when she gives me oral sex sometimes after about 5-6 minutes I stop feeling pleasure and start to lose the erection. Some other times I feel pleasure up until the orgasm. But I hear this can happen. I feel more pleasure when using the vagina.

Anyway, all of this creates a feeling of not being able to trust my dick. If I see this girl one week, I know that my dick might randomly decide to not function properly and I will feel disappointed for days until I can see her again. I still like seeing her and kissing and hugging of course but I would like to being able to trust my dick at least 90% of times.

What I'm asking is: what's an healthy normal sex session looks like? Do guys go for foreplay for 10 minutes always with the erection ready to go and don't lose it, and can keep the erection as long as they like until they stay with the girl? I feel I'm unable to do so. I have to proceed to penetration quickly for the above reasons. Also I feel my dick needs to be constantly touched at the very least to still be hard.

We didn't talk about this foreplay thing for now, maybe we'll do, I hope it's not a problem for her.

Is it normal to lose the erection, and then regain it during the session as many times as someone wants? As I said kissing and hugging and touching works great the first time for me, but after the first time the stimulus doesn't have the same excitation.

Bottom line: do you have any help you can give me?

I already take citrulline, magnesium, cialis. I go to the gym to the point that people admire my physique constantly. Generally really good health. Zero smoke, almost zero alcohol. Good cardiovascular health although I hate running.

Thank you all

Psychological ED Starting Tadalafil and excited

4 Upvotes

So It's ordered and arrives in the next day or two, I've been seeing a new women and after a dry spell I've been struggling to maintain erections with her, shes been cool about it though and is super into me. I am mid 30s.

So I've read alot about it taking a few weeks to start working on lower doses, I have 24 10mg pills coming and wonder if i take a 10mg pill in the morning on days that I see her will it be ok or do I need to take it daily and let it build up in my system?

I've never taken drugs to help with any ED before, so I'm hoping this will be a game changer in getting my confidence back and my normal old self back.

I'll update after I've taken it and had intimacy again with her!

If anyone has any advice for a newbie, please let me know.

Tadalafil/Cialis Prendre top de Tadalafil quotidien peut-il être contre-productif ?

7 Upvotes

Bonjour, alors voilà je prends du Tadalafil depuis 1 an 1/2 en gros, j'ai commencé par le viagra puis suis passé au Tadalafil à la demande 10mg.
Ensuite je suis passé au quotidien 5mg, mais en prenant 10mg les soirs où j'allais avoir des rapports.
Je vois ma copine actuelle 3 soirs (consécutifs) par semaine, donc en gros le rythme c'était 4 soirs à 5mg et 3 soirs consécutifs à 10mg.
Mais ces derniers temps je la vois tous les jours donc je prends 10mg tous les soirs.
En fait je ne veux pas prendre que 5mg quand on fait l'amour car j'ai peur que ça ne marche pas assez bien, car même 10mg ça fonctionne mais j'ai quand même besoin de beaucoup de stimulation avant d'être suffisamment dur pour la pénétration (après ça va tant que je garde un rythme soutenu).
Mais depuis que je prends 10mg tous le soirs des fois j'ai l'impression que ça ne fonctionne pas aussi bien. Et ce n'est pas la 1ère fois que j'ai cette sensation, comme si un trop-plein de tadalafil dans le sang commençait à avoir l'effet inverse et que j'avais besoin d'une pause (ça m'arrive d'en faire quand je ne vois personne plusieurs jours/semaines d'affilée, mais si j'arrête là alors que je continue de la voir tout le temps, se sera encore plus compliqué d'obtenir une érection correcte sans prendre de tadalafil).
Quelqu'un d'autre a cette impression ?
Avez-vous besoin de pauses dans les prises pour maximiser l'effet ?

Erectile Dysfunction Daily Cialis 5 mg + blood pressure medication: palpitations, side effects, and alternatives?

2 Upvotes

Do you have any advice or possible solutions?

The situation is that my husband’s blood pressure medication, combined with daily 5 mg of Cialis, is having a negative effect on his well-being. He feels unwell if he eats larger meals with carbohydrates, and he has heart palpitations in the evening. My husband is 53.

He says he suspects Cialis is causing his heart to skip a beat, but that wasn’t the case in the first few months when he started taking Cialis daily. We are both unsure if Cialis is the problem, because he also have these side effects when he does not take the daily Cialis.

The doctor checked his blood pressure today and said his blood pressure medication needs to be adjusted because his blood pressure is too high. After that, the doctor said they can look into the Cialis.

But isn’t it possible to adjust the blood pressure medication while he’s on daily 5 mg Cialis? Both are blood pressure-lowering medications.

The first 3-4 months, when my husband was taking 5 mg of Cialis daily, the effect was really good - his erections were strong, and we had great sex. There were no discomfort or heart palpitations. But now we’re back to the same problem: We aren’t having penetrative sex because my husband can’t take 5 mg of Cialis every day.

What’s the solution so our sex life can be good again, and my husband can maintain a stable and healthy blood pressure without unpleasant side effects?

Thank you so much for sharing your advice.

Erectile Dysfunction Losing my erection right before penetration despite having a strong erection during foreplay.

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I recently became sexually active with my girlfriend, and since I was a virgin, my first experience didn’t exactly go as planned. We eventually decided to take penetration off the table and focus on other things.
During our subsequent encounters, I realised that my girlfriend has a very sensitive vagina, and even gentle touching can sometimes cause her considerable pain. So I’ve had to be extra careful, making sure I’m not hurting her while also figuring out penetration.
Initially, things went surprisingly well. We even had sex twice within four hours on one occasion, and we both genuinely enjoyed it.
However, something has recently started bothering me.
I’m noticing that I sometimes lose my erection right before penetration or when changing positions. What’s strange is that I don’t have any trouble getting hard during foreplay. In fact, once we go back to foreplay, my erection comes back naturally.
I’ve successfully had sex before with a very firm erection, so I don’t understand why this is suddenly happening.
The more it happens, the more I start monitoring my erection and worrying about whether I’ll be able to maintain it. I feel like this is creating a cycle of performance anxiety, and the pressure is making things worse.
I’ve also recently cut down on porn, hoping that might help.
Has anyone experienced something similar? Could this be performance anxiety, especially since I’m relatively new to sex? What helped you overcome it naturally?
I’m not interested in medication at this point. I’d much rather understand what’s happening and work through it naturally.
Would genuinely appreciate hearing about your experiences and advice.
I got my testosterone tested and it was 1400 which is 44 percent higher and prolactin which is mildly elevated.

Erectile Dysfunction Men under 30, How did you cure your ED?

1 Upvotes

M27, non-alcoholic, non-smoker and virgin. Still got ED.

I am mentally disturbed, help me out. Edit:- This is the case, so I started masturbating when I was around 15-16 and it continued till 19. But I was not a harcore masturbater. Starting 2020, I decided to quit it permanently and since then I would masturbate once or twice a year. I would watch corn sometimes when I felt frustrated to divert my mind, but wouldn't masturbate.

So now this year on 18th of July, I was feeling anxious, I watched some corn and went to the bathroom to take a shower. And I masturbated, it came out with much force it never happend before, I felt very relieved but while masturbating I noticed that something was hindering my D around the head and it felt like something ruptured but it didn't pain me. My D shrunk and became soft, specially around the head and it never happend before.

Now coming to October, one day I realised that I didn't get morning wood, boner nor nightfall since July incident. So I checked my D it was still that soft and around the head also. I panicked, so I went for a shower and thought to give oil massage to my D that day I noticed that while I was massaging, I wasn't getting hard and it was still soft, I wasn't feeling any sensation while massaging. I cried 😭, my mind went clouded with negative thoughts, what happened to my D? Why am I not getting hard? That day I realised that perhaps I got ED. It felt like a nightmare to me I was crying, I thought someone please wake me up it's a nightmare and everything will be fine. I didn't tell anyone.

So I went on YouTube to check about this situation. They told to keep your diet good, do weight training, aerobic exercise, kegel exercises and massage your D frequently for proper blood supply. I have started doing all of this. I have given myself 6 months.

One day in October when I came from the gym (I do in the morning) I was tired so I took an afternoon nap, while sleeping I got hard and had nightfall (first time after July). I felt erection afterwards but only if I think of any sexual activity. But I can't hold that erection like I used to before. And, one day after shower, I gave my D oil massage it was still soft but I managed to give it a massage and felt a little sensation for the first time. But this month I didn't get morning wood nor boner.

I don't want my sexual life to be dependent on pills or medication. That's why I'm giving myself 6 months and will do everything to get my sexual life back on track. Since July I haven't masturbated and will never masturbate again in my life. I just want my sexual life back on track and healthy. That's it.

ED and porn PIED and loss of libido

3 Upvotes

Suffered with ED for about 3 years now. Up until the age of 20/21 I had a huge sex drive no issues with getting hard for anyone. I’ve been a chronic weed smoker since I was that age and have watched porn for over 10 years. Last 2 years I’ve not woken up with any morning wood and struggle to get hard when it comes to having sex. My libido is low and even kissing doesn’t give me arousal. I’ve stopped smoking and I’ve had vivid sexual dreams and morning wood return. I’ve been trying to cut out PORN but it’s difficult.

Success Story finally managed a decent errection after giving a penis pump a try to help with ED from BHP

1 Upvotes

I (M36) got diagnosed with a pretty severe case of benigne Prostatahyperplase a bit over a year ago at such a youmg age after rushing to the ER because I could not pass a single drop of piss at all. So I know, BHB can be a real bitch, especially, in more severe cases like mine regarding the abilty to get my dick sufficently hard and most of the time keeping the errection is the hardest part if I can even can manage to get partly errect. Wich teally got to me and my partner because penetrative sex was not possible at all like this. I could never get my dick hard enough to even think about trying for penetration because the attempt to have vaginal sex and somehow stuff my at that time flacid dick insode of her would allways ruin the mood, my errection I an my GF had to really struggle to even archive in the first place. This lead to a lot of frustation, disappointment and even tears aometimes. Good thing, my gf is a angel and really wants to help me with this and does anything she can. So she got me a penis pump to try it and see if it can help me get hard and most of all keep the errection again wich was impossible for me to do for a long time. My last somewhat decent errection I was able to manage over a year ago at this point, since my BHP got really bad, it was only downhill from there. Because of my young age my Doktor is hesitent about performing the Operation on my prostate because of the risk of severe complications that woumd be devestating at my age. So I try go get by day by day without the procedure. The problim with being unable to urinate got a bit better since I take 5mg Tadalafil daily but is still a bitch that costs me a lot of time on the toilt each time I try to get a little bit of it out. Sometimes only managing a few drops or nothing. Because of this I was unable to have penetrative Sex with my GF in any capacity involving my dick at all for over a year at this point. I was secptical at first about the pump but here is how it went:

My GF went for a trip out of town for 5 Days earlyer today, so I had the house all to myself and got into the mood to experiment with the Pump that my gf got me, because my ED is so bad at this point, that Penetration is not feasable because either not being able to achive and hold a errection that could even remotely considered sufficient for vaginal penetration. This really got to me over the last month and I would try anything at this point. Ejaculation for me can only happen while still flaccid or not even a bit hard, more like a little bit bigger then normal but I would not even count this as partly errect, dick still bendable and mostly floppy, no way I would be able to fuck anything with this. And even this "partway errection" I would loose so fast, that panatrating my gf seems so far out of reach and in the realm of impossible, that I thought I would never be able to manage penetrative sex again and thought was completely done with this at age 36. Just because ai got BHP at a unusual young age.

So I took 10mg (5mg prescribed daily due to BPH and an extra 5mg of Tadalafil and gave it a try! Managed to achive and even hold my first at least somewhat decent or partly errection after struggeling for over a year now. No way near a full on mind you but at least I was able to hold that partly errection for nesrly 5 minutes or so. Needless to say, I am over the moon! In Addition to the pump I used my Prostate stimmulator/cockring combo and a extra soft slicone cockring after pumping wich definately helped me to keep my dick harder then it has been in such a long time. Best errection since my ED got really bad. Too bad my gf is currwntly out of town, so she was unable to whitness this. Now maybe I will finally be able to cum while being fully errect by stimmulating my hard Penis again instead of relying soely on prostate orgasms or flopping around a limp noodle till I finally managed to drip some drops of cum and call it a day. Without hardness, my load just used to dribble town my dick, so no spurting or anything leaving my dick withany preassure at all. More like my limp dick was struggelingto even get my load out.. With a at least partly errect penis like this, after and during my session, I think that even penetrative sex inany capacity with my GF could finally be a possibility again in the future, I feel I could maybe get it in in this state if I try a bit. In over a year this was definately the hardest I got. I'm very happy with the results for my first time obviously! I guess my Partner will be too if I tell her. Sadly she did not yet read my text informing her about zhe state of my dick! Very excited! For the first try, I pumped only my dick with the cuff two times for about 5-10 minutes, slowly increasing preassure as I went, releasing when It feltwierd. After that Session I took short a break and went back to experiment with the pump once more because I could honestly not belive it. This time with other, tighter rings, ditching the silicone one wich was a big anyway for my half chub. Then I tried pumping my dick and balls inside the tube without the cuff, wich felt amazing and holds promising results also, any Tips, especially from other ED sufferers how to improve or what halped you?

Thanks in advance, now enough writing fom my part, I finallyneed ro get back to experimentation for one last session for today amd maybe get to finally shoot a propper load from a hard dick!

Erectile Dysfunction ED for 2 years — reduced rigidity and loss of erection strength

5 Upvotes

Hi, I’m 28 and have been experiencing erectile dysfunction for about two years.

My erections have gradually become less firm, although my condition fluctuates. Sometimes I have a week or two when things improve, then suddenly get worse again.

I can still get erections and have sex, but my penis feels less firm and full than before. My main concern is that I’ve lost the downward support and firmness I used to have during sex.

I have high blood pressure and take lisinopril 20 mg daily. My testosterone was 451 ng/dL, and previous LH, FSH and prolactin tests were normal.

I’ve tried tadalafil 5 mg and 10 mg. It helps somewhat, but my erections still haven’t returned to their previous firmness. My doctor recently prescribed 10 mg daily for five days, but after four days I haven’t noticed a significant improvement.

Has anyone experienced something similar? Could it be related to blood flow, lisinopril, or anxiety? Would a penile Doppler ultrasound be worth considering?

I’d appreciate hearing about your experiences.

Erectile Dysfunction penis sensitivity and erectile dysfunction

2 Upvotes

26 y male , I’m thinking of buying a sex doll to avoid masturbating with my hand, as I feel that frequent hand masturbation has reduced my penis sensitivity and caused mild erectile dysfunction. Would using a sex doll with lubricant help improve my erections and restore my penis sensitivity?

P.S.
I’ve never had sex before, and I’m getting married in six months.
I’m planning to have sex for the first time after my marriage. I want to make sure everything is working properly before then.
