I am becoming increasingly worried that
i'm suffering from some sort of erection
problem.
My penis is pretty healthy, i mean i keep
it washed and i don't neglect it with
dangerous physical activities or anything,
but over the past few months i'd say it's
got weaker in comparison to say a year
ago. Me and my partner (Only sexual
partner i've had) practice safe sex, and
only try anything potentially harmful by
taking the right amount of care required -
such as anal sex.
While having sex, sometimes it loses the
same stiffness as i have when initially
aroused. Also with oral sex, or even when
my girlfriend uses her hand, it becomes
only semi-turgid at times - although when
i first start any act of sex, it's very
rigid.
Also, after urinating, i use the same
muscle that i use to stop mid-flow, to
push out the remains of any urine still in
my urethra. However - this method now
seems to be limited in strength - almost
the same way as my penis feels limited in
strength during acts of sex.
I know that i may have to elaborate on
exactly just what is happening to it, and
in what situation, but i want any initial
thoughts on what it could be. Just a few
different opinions so that i can
understand where i should look for more
professional answers. Thanks!

By dangerous, i mean anything that could
cause physical harm to the organs in that
area. Fighting, sport, sexual activities
done wrong or irresponsibly, or anything
like that. I always take proper care not
to neglect safety, and i'm not sure it's
any of those.

how old r u? As I've gotten older I've
noticed a decrease in rigidity too. Comes
with age. I take saw palmetto in capsule
form which is supposed to help blood flow.
Seems to be working for me as I've noticed
my erections are harder now within the
last few months.

Ahh well is there a minimum age to be
posting stuff like this?
I'm 17. I've been sexually active with the
one and same partner i'm with now for just
over 2 years. Very sexually active, so
there's no excuse for lack of experience
(Which is usually the reason i'm
apprehensive about posting my age with
topics around sex).
But either way, i'm guessing i'm not as
old as you originally thought. I'm not
particularly positive about taking
medications, i was much hoping there would
be some sort of excercise i can do to
re-build any strength i may have lost. I'm
also not prepared to pay for any of that
information, as advertised all over the
net, hence why i'm here. Haha.
Thanks for your comment, but i would
further appreciate any alternative
suggestions you have? Based on the new
circumstances of my quite young age (In
comparison)

hiya. some advice that has been given to
my bf both from a doctor and a sex
therapist - kegels!! lots and lots of
them. they should make your erection
stronger.
if you arent familiar with kegels, what
they basically are is pelvic floor
exercises. imagine you are peeing; you
know the muscles you tighten to stop the
flow of urine? those are your pelvic floor
muscles. you can strengthen them simply by
tensing and releasing them. squeeze, hold,
relax. squeeze, hold, relax. do maybe ten
in the morning, ten in the afternoon, ten
at night... more if you like. whenever you
remember to do them. you can do them just
while sitting watching telly. you can do
them right now.
dont do them while actually peeing though,
cos it's not good to stop the flow of
urine, apparently.
after even just a few weeks, i'm sure you
will notice a difference. women do them
too to keep their vagina toned.
well try this anyway. if you still find
you are having difficulties then maybe you
should try the doctor, but you are still
very young so it's unlikely there is an
underlying problem. let us know how you
get on anyway.
