I am only 21 and i have been suffering from erectile dysfunction for approximately 6months - not being able to get an erection at all. I have bought over the counter tablets such as viagra from pharmacys which have had literally zero help at all. All i read on the internet is bad things about it and how hard it is to reverse it. I live a healthy and active lifestyle i exercise 4/5times a week and i am at a healthy weight i dont smoke and drink alcohol maybe 3/4 times a month. Unexpectedly about 2months ago i met this girl and even though i knew about the problems i had we have been seeing eachother but i have never got an erection with her and I always have to make an excuse about not having sex with her. I am too scared to tell her as i have not known her that long. This is really affecting my life and making me down and depressed. I am also too scared to tell anyone about this as its embarrassing and i am starting to think there is no solution to the problem.

Does anyone have any successful storys on this topic and any advice would would be great and is much needed as i really dont know where to go from here!

Hi Jonesjojo,

Thank you for your post and understandably you are uncomfortable talking to someone about it. However, we would urge you to visit your GP who can assess whether there is a psychological or
physical cause. They may refer you to a urologist to check if a physical cause or if psychological then maybe refer you for some counselling. Please find more info below:

Hi Jo Jo, What you need to do is think back to what you was before this happened what has happened in your life to have brought this on,

What has happened to you happens with us older guys, most problems do have answers and yours is one that only you can find the answer to, but in the mean time let your GF know that you have a problem with erections at the moment and its something that she can help with, like oral sex the sucking of your penis, yes oral sex could help and massaging your penis does have benefits, as this moves blood along your penis using the o grip and its something you can do.

I Read Your Entire Discussion, This is really useful for those who suffer from erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction is a condition wherein a man routinely thinks that it's hard to get or keep a firm erection. Erectile dysfunction can happen at any age, yet it is more typical in men more seasoned than 65. tile Dysfunction is a typical issue in men. Many are Generic meds that are utilized to treat Erectile Dysfunction. Sildenafil Citrate, Tadalafil, and Vardenafil are the nonexclusive meds to treat Erectile Dysfunction.
