I'm male/20/virgin. I haven't been able
to get or keep an erection the past 9
months. Lost my morning erections almost
completely. And I think my erections are
getting weaker and weaker. It used to be
that I could get one but it wouldn't last
long. Now it's impossible to get it
decently hard when I masturbate. It makes
masturbation extremely difficult. I've
done all kinds of hormone tests all turned
out fine. One doc prescribed 3 pills of
viagra. First pill kinda worked second
pill worked pretty well although it was
still not what it used to be. Third pill
didn't work at all...But I was a bit tired
that day. So am I simply screwed? I'm
very healthy and don't smoke/drink/or have
any other negative lifestyle factors.
I've been very calm about this since i'm a
very rational person. But I think this
problem is starting to seriously undermine
my confidence with girls and everything
else, always conscious of my ed. I don't
know how long I can take it like this.
I've made an appt to see another doc and
will get an appt with a urologist from
him...Which might be my last resort. But
it's not until july so any
suggestions/similar experiences or
whatever are welcome.

It was 50mg. It kind of confused me that
it worked well the second time and didn't
at all the third time.

Thanks. Is erectile dysfunction
reversible at all? I mean I don't want to
rely on drugs to have sex in the future...

Hello there -
ive had the same problem since I was your
age ! Well actually at 19. Im now 28.
What you said is exactly what I
experienced. Ive had all type of tests
done, things u cant even imagine. Anyway,
im sorry but there is no good news.
I was lucky enough to find a partner where
sex wasnt everything. Anyway, we have
broken up now and im starting to go
insane.
Yes I have used viagra etc, but like
yourself dont want to use it all the
time.
What the doctors said to me was that I had
something called venous leaks which is
like a burst blood vessel in the penis.
The only way of fixing it is to so call
seal it by tying the veins together.
Though the dr said it is a reoccuring
thing which will also leave bumpy scars
which I didnt want.
If u want any further info regarding tests
etc, please feel free to email me !
