What Other Options Are There For Me ? 20's Man Posted: 05-06-06 08:53am
Hello -
i started having erection problems when I
was 19.
I am now 29.
Ive seen the doctor countless times for
many many tests. And yes, they have
proven that I have a problem. After
finding a stable gf where sex wasnt so
important, I am now single and am getting
a little concerned.
As if to be limp is bad, but my penis
size is slowly slowly decreasing in size.
I use to be confident as anything, but
these days im trying to avoid all
relationships because of it.
Ive used viagra, but dont like the side
effects. Are there any alternatives out
there ?
So far heres all the test ive had done.
1st - they did a scan to measure blood
flow into the penis. To do this they
injected something to give me an erect
penis (after 2 attempts ouch). Then kind
of used an ultra sound thing.
The urologists said I had leaks in my
penis. One option was to "sew" or block
these leaks so blood would not flow out.
I opted out of this option.
2nd test - I stayed in a special clinic
over night for 3 nights. The technician
put a measure device around the penis to
measure blood flow when I was sleeping.
The results proved that not enough blood
was going to the tip of my penis. Again
the doctor said relax relax. . By this
time I was totally fed up.
Any help out there ??
What are some alternatives to viagra ?
:cry:

You can take supplements all you want but
unlike most people you have a real
physical problem. It can be solved with
surgery as your doctor has already told
you. It might sound horrible but think
about it you can be totally cured. I
can't believe you've lived with this for
10 years. Your case is way beyond herbal
supplements and the like as those are
primarily for ed caused by mental issues.

the surgery is a temporary fix though as
leaks will reoccur, and then there will be
scarring tissue on ya penis which I really
dont want.
Anyway thanks for the reply.

Ohhh rough I had read that venious leaks
are curable through surgery but I didn't
know they just reacur. Maybe some cases
do and some don't. Anyways doesn't
matter.
Alternatives to viagra:
levitra
cialis
if you want to try out the herbal route
enzyte would probably be your best bet.
You'll want to couple that with an
l-arginine supplement say 3 grams a day,
if you can get l-arginine aplha
ketoglutarate that would work better for
your purposes. Lastly you might want to
throw in some tribulus to raise your
libido I know that isn't your problem but
I think it will help as it will make your
body pump more blood in there. The
l-arginine and tribulus are absolutley
side effect free ask your doctor about the
enzyte however as I do not know much about
it. Also if you decide to try the trib
only get tribestan from sopharma or tribex
those are the only brands I know that are
actually made with enough of the active
ingredient to have an effect.
The logic is enzyte increases blood flow
to your penis and so will the l-arginine
and this might be enough to offset the
venous leak. Oh one more thing yohimbine
is supposed to have the effect of actually
reducing blood outflow from the penis
while keeping inflow the same. Now I
have no idea how effective it is or
whether it works or not but it might be
something you ask your doctor about (it is
a presciption drug).
The only solution I can think of is just
to take enough supplements (making sure
their safe first) that increase bloodflow
to the penis to counteract the excess
outflow being caused by the venious leak.
I hope this post helped more than my
last, if you do decide to try some of this
stuff out tell us how it goes.
