Sorry to hear. What about your stress-level, pre-diabetes and obesity? Have you already talk with a healthcare professional?

Hey yeh, spoke with my GP, it’s stress related I’m sure. I panic that it won’t, and of course adrenaline kills erections…. The more it happens the more I stress 😫 I can’t live like this I’ve sobbed to sleep more than once

Think what you can do about your stress level. Is it work related?

After 2 years seeing around 20 doctors and hearing that it was all in my head since my testosterone and glucose levels were ok, I finally found that I have a condition called lumbar spinal stenosis that might be causing my erectile dysfunction.

So keep looking for answers if you are not sure about it. If it is really just a stress related ED, you might try talking to a psychiatrist and get some anti-anxiety drugs.

You’re circumcisied? It this age it can further damage your pleasure leading to lack of sensations leading to ED, I’m 24 and I can’t get an erection by psychical stimulation only by mental fantasies

Perfection perfectionism! Listen, this is probably because you’re not confident with yourself and you probably have some kind of issue related to depression, I had this only when I felt depressed and low motivated, psychically you’re healthy as horse, I’m not sure about this condition but try to focus on the things above, you didn’t had this before right?

Hey bud, your not alone in this, I had my first encounter at 39 all due to stress, of course with this you become further stressed and it all gets on top of you, at 44 even now I have the odd occasion too, I fortunately could get an erection for masturbation which then lead me & the doctor to understand was all physiological for me, Take a time out mate, relax, Take you & the Mrs away for a weekend and see how you go for relaxation away from the norm, Sounds as if your talking with the doc or sexual health clinic about this which is a great place to start. Keep us updated and well done on reaching out.

Thank you so much for sharing. I have a back story but don’t we all…. Just find it sooo hard to deal with. My wife is amazing but doesn’t understand why I feel so emasculated

in reply toMrJMan

110% for someone to understand if never experienced isn’t it mate

I had to write… you’re not a failure or a loser, stress manifests in terrible ways. You can still pleasure your partner and I’m sure when you’ve de stressed a little all will go back to normal. You are definitely not a loser . Sending love 😃
