Erectile dysfunction after circumcision?

I was circumcised a year ago and ever since, I don’t get as many erections as I use to and have to try play with it to get it hard. I also struggle to keep one for long and get fully hard so I think I have ED. I was just wondering does anyone else have this and it this a side effect?

Not an ideal situation! Have you spoken to your GP to discuss causes / treatments? Also, have a look at the ED section of HealthUnlocked.

GP is your best bet to check your testosterone levels and go from there

My GP gave me viagra incase I had any issues. I don’t as it happens but the viagra does give a much stronger erection. You should ask about it

Dear Stephen, may be you need first of all to be reassured; we all have, after circumcision, to deal with some important changes to our feeling and sensitivity. The glans is numb and the scar ring with the frenum carved area can become our new trigger points; Don't think your condition is different from any other circumcised guy; you have to take your time to stimulate the penis, you must be calm and to fantasize more than before, cause also psychological attitude is very important. Try to concentrate on the surgical area, scar ring, circumcised valley where the frenum used to be, flared glans corona and do a slow milking movement from back to the top of the glans. As you can see, the stimulation is quite different from before the "snip", but you will learn to trust your new..body.

Hey man, I’ve not had circumcision myself, but I do have experience with ED, so I get where you’re coming from. It can mess with your confidence and make you question a lot. For me, Cialis (tadalafil) (a longer-acting ED medication) has been a game-changer—it helps me get and keep things going without stress, and honestly, it makes the issue feel like it’s not even there. If you haven’t tried something like that, it could be worth looking into after talking to your doctor. If you need it, I order Cialis from this online pharmacy - health-delivery24.com/buy-c.... The quality and effect are always excellent.

As for your situation post-circumcision, it’s possible that the sensitivity changes or psychological factors from such a procedure might play a role. But the good news is that ED is treatable in most cases, whether the cause is physical or mental. If I were you, I’d start by consulting a urologist to rule out physical issues and also consider how stress or anxiety might be impacting you. In the meantime, don’t hesitate to explore options like medication or even lifestyle changes (exercise, better sleep, etc.), which can make a difference. You’ve got this.
