To everyone with ED due to a penis pump

[Rasmus Member Find all posts View Profile Close Rasmus]

Hi,

this forum is amazing.

Thank you all for willing to help by reading and writing posts.

However,

there are numerous threads about Erectile Dysfunction as a result of using a penis pump.
These threads have the same questions and the same answers.

In all threads, the story is the same:

"I used a penis pump for x period of time.
I noticed lost of sensitivity.
Feeling is stubbed.
I cannot get an erection from mental stimulation anymore.
With physical stimulation I can achieve some hardness, but as soon as the physical stimulation stops my penis becomes completely flaccid.
Very weak morning woods, if any.
No sexual intercourse is possible.
My libido is low, if any.
I visit a doctor, no signs of damage.
Many months have passed, no change, I am freaking out."

In all threads, the answers are the same:

"Don't worry, it's your brain, not your penis.
Do not think of women for many months/ years.
Do not watch porn.
It's anxiety."

Reality:
There is anxiety because of the problem. Not vice versa.

All of us, who used properly/ improperly a penis pump and now cannot get a normal erection, have a physical problem.
Yes, there is no vein leakage, no laceration and we are not going to die, but we cannot have sex anymore.

Let's this thread be the place to share solutions.
Please, any of you who suffer the same problem, do not write here about the problem, we know it, write here about what you have tried to solve it.

Perhabs many of these guys strained their pelvic floor / bc muscle. Its not in their head. We all know how a cramped pf can cause numbness and ED...

The primary action taken when a mild injury is suspected is rest. If the injury is acute or chronic in nature then medical attention should be seriously considered.

Veno-occlusive/arterial-occlusive injuries and vein/artery damage should be seriously considered, and thought about how to heal them.

Sorry, I feel your pain.

Did you visit an urologist?
What implants are you thinking of?

[Excellator Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close Excellator]

Guys there is a certain system in place which shuts off your veins and arteries when an erection is full so you don't lose the erection. The blood gets chambered in the penis and then the portals are shut so it can't leak back. What a penis pump could potentially do, is harm this system. I've read before in a topic here on PEgym about how a guy needed to get a embolization metal coil in one of his penis veins, to get this system working again after he harmed himself with a penis pump.

So it's the veins and arteries and the corresponding system that you have to focus on! And watch out with the pumps, don't overdo it!

...And watch out with the pumps, don't overdo it!

This is good advice for all forms of male enhancement training!

I agree if it's a strained pelvic floor / bc muscle then those stretches will help fix it over time. Severe tension can reduce sensitivity and make your orgasms feel like duds. It can also limit spontaneous erections including morning wood. Stimulated erections will remain possible but the EQ won't be great. Weaker urine stream and pain in the perineum are possible symptoms too. Fortunately none of these should be permanent if you have them.

If anyone does these stretches for a day and there's no improvement then don't freak out, it can actually take a long time to cure tension so keep doing them for at least a month. As a bonus have little to no porn use or masturbation during that time so your penis can heal and reboot too, basically leave your penis alone as much as you can for a while. Eat healthy and get the right amount of both cardio and sleep if possible. Stay away from things that further trigger your anxiety or stress since a clear mind is essential for a full recovery, even distracting yourself if that's what it takes. Feel free to to use heat treatments (like warm baths) or natural supplements to encourage better circulation and therefore healing but they're not required. Make sure not to overdo the RK's.

I can personally attest to all of this helping me as an ED sufferer of nearly 2 years after an injury. And when eventually returning to masturbation I recommend using a lighter grip or a sex toy with lube and not doing it too often so the pleasure doesn't diminish again. At that point things should be similar to what they were before the injury. I'm positive everyone here can recover with the right methods.

See The HANS Protocol for more information on treating pelvic tension.

I think I can help fix this issue. Id like to say first off that I believe that any injury (aside from a penile fracture and dead veins) CAN be healed with the right routine and possibly supplement. So a little backstory first. About a year and a half ago I bought a bathmate in order to gain size quickly. I used it pretty consistently and saw little difference in size. I used it at high enough pressure to push me almost a half inch past my erect length. I stopped using it for a while because I moved. When I started using it again about 8 months ago I started right off doing the same thing. Pumping a half inch past my erect length. The third time I did it, when I got done I noticed four things. 1. My penis looked liked a freaking balloon... easily an inch over my normal girth. 2.it was bruised all over the shaft. 3. My superficial dorsal vein (the vein running along the top middle part of your shaft and then wraps around your penis just under the head) was extremely prominent. Andd 4. I couldn't get a rock hard erection to save my life... I waited a good month for everything to go back to normal. The bruising went away and my balloon of a penis eventually did deflate back to its normal sized girth. What didnt change was I couldn't get rock hard erections. I could only get an erection due to manual stimulation (not a very hard erection mind you and before all this I could easily dent steel with this bad boy) and then it would get soft the second manual stimulation stopped. Also the superficial dorsal vein was very prominent still and I could push it around. It also felt cold and lifeless kinda. After months of dealing with this I finally decided enough was enough. I realized as long as it wasnt completely unresponsive I must be able to fix this.
After many hours of research I came up with a few things that seem to be slowly returning my penis functionality to its previous glory.
1. Take cold baths. My penis has slowly gained more and more functionality back from cold baths daily. When I take cold baths now I get erections throughout the day from random sexual thoughts and well their hard. Like really hard. Ive also noticed my superficial dorsal vein has slowly became less prominent. So TAKE COLD BATHS. It will help for sure.
2. Castor oil massages. Its super cheap and you can find it at walmart. Its advertised as a laxative but it has other uses as well. I use it to break down scar tissue and I notice when I use it I get harder erections. Just massage it into your penis for 5 or 10 minutes to help break down the scar tissue in your veins and restore elasticity.
This is all I do and my penis doesnt get cold anymore and its slowly getting better. Some days are better than others but ive noticed a gradual return of erections. Theyre harder and it just feels like everythingz getting better.
You can also try supplements for vein elasticity and repair as im sure they'll help as well. I havent tried them simply because I'm ballin on a budget as they say.
Good luck and I hope this helps others as much as its helped me.
Also as a side note try not to masturbate to much as that may exacerbate your symptoms and make it to where your body doesnt have enough time to repair itself before being put under stress again...

Have you had an MRI on your penis? If not, you can't possibly know whether it's damaged or not.

I might be wrong here, but if your penis expanded so much it was suddenly an inch greater in flaccid girth I'd be ecstatic and super happy. I would also assume it would be harder to get a super hard erection with a bigger CC and penis overall volume. Though I would not dare use a penis pump without a quality pressure gauge, that feels very dangerous.

Thank you all for writing comments here and for your willing to help.


Unfortunately, I can't say that my situation is getting any better. May be a little, but not that noticeable.


My symptoms are still:

1. Penis goes soft at lightning speed
The following comment from Squirt55 explains it pretty accurate.

I could only get an erection due to manual stimulation (not a very hard erection mind you and before all this I could easily dent steel with this bad boy) and then it would get soft the second manual stimulation stopped.

2. My penis is not very sensitive
During intercourse or oral stimulation, I feel that something is happening like friction and it is not unpleasant, but that's all.
It feels like my penis head is stubbed.


May be you are thinking, hey you have sexual life, that's good.
Well, I have but it is so unnatural, so to speak, because:
- I need to always have Kamagra (sildenafil citrate 25mg.) in my pocket in order to maintain some erection (around 80%). My penis gets soft from time to time even after taking it.
- I cannot ejaculate during intercourse or oral stimulation, due to a lack of sensitivity.
