Hi,
For the past year or so, I have noticed a big decrease in the quality of my erections, and it only seems to be getting worse. I can almost always get an erection, but I cannot maintain one unless I am constantly stimulating it, and it disappears very rapidly after orgasm, or if i stop stimulating it. I am talking seconds.
When wearing a condom, I almost always lose my erection during intercourse, and reach orgasm maybe 1/10 times. When not wearing one, I lose my erection during sex maybe 20-50% of the time especially if I am going at it pretty hard (circulation problems perhaps?)
I also notice that my erection just feels much less hard & less strong than it used to, especially on the upper half o f my penis. It feels as if the base is still working normally, but the top half doesn't fill up properly, or it cannot hold the blood within very well unless i am VERY aroused. when I get half-erections, the bottom half feels normal, but the top half feels as if there is nothing in there and it is completely flaccid. I have looked in peyronies disease but i have no curvature or noticeable scar tissue.
I was wondering if I also have prostatitis as i often have pain in my prostate as well. not daily, but it comes and goes regularly. though i did not see erectile dysfunction as a listed side effect of prostatitis.
I have read information online and have quit smoking for the last 3 months, but this has had no effect. I have tried viagra and it works. I am in fairly good shape, i live in a city where i bicycle daily and exercise everyday, and eat fairly healthy. I don't eat any frozen foods, rarely eat fast-food. I don't like sweets or eating unhealthy snacks. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Have I somehow injured my penis beyond repair, or can anyone relate to this? I am getting bait desperate and would appreciate any advice you can give.
Thank you.
