Sexual Health - Men Question Posted: 01-08-06 07:42am
Hi,
I am 22 years old.
I now have a new girlfriend, and I have
tried to have sex with her,
the first time we have tried I was
constantly thinking about my erection,
and just could not get it hard (no matter
what).
It got me seriously frustrated, so the
second time I took 25mg of Viagra,
it gave me some more confidence So I did
get an erection during the fore play, but
once I have put on a condom and was about
to penetrate her, The erection simply
dissappeared, I think that it is because I
began thinking about it again.
I am aware that thinking about an erection
makes it dissappear, but once it has
dissapeared, I just can't take it for
granted, and can't help thinking about it.
I can manage to relax and have an erection
during fore play, but the very act of
puting on a condom and thinking about
having sex makes me think about it and
worry about it, which eventually makes my
penis soft...
I could really use any suggestion about
breaking out of this vicious cycle...

It sounds as if you are under great stress
and pressure to prove your manhood. Unless
you have an organic, pysiological
disorders of your penis, “Viagra”
won’t help you. Be assured that
impotency caused by psycho-emotional
reasons IS TYPICAL for young men.
Nonetheless, it is very important that you
examine the behavior and look for a
pattern. You can review your sexual
history and recognize that either: #1
This has happened to you for the first
time... or # 2 The behavior is consistent,
regardless of sexual partner. You will
need support, patience and tolerance from
your partner during this time. You can
also seek expert help from mental health
professional that specializes in sexual
disorder.
