So Embarrassing...not getting erection Posted: 10-17-07 03:43am
im sorry for this being so long but its a
long story
im an 18 year kid in good shape. about 2
years ago when i started hangin out with
girls and experimenting i noticed that i
wasnt getting erections when i definetly
should have been. i used to masterbate
around 5 days a week and never had too
much trouble getting erect and stay that
way, but it was a very rare occasion to be
able to perform with my gf. well 2 years
went by and the problem not only didnt get
better but seemed to get worse. i actually
have trouble getting an erection while
masterbating and never get morning wood.
i got so fed up with it around 2 months
ago that i talked to my father about it.
he scheduled an appointment with a
urologist, the doc. took a blood test and
when i went back for the follow up he told
me my testosterone levels were incredibly
low, especially for my age. he gave me a
sample of cealis (sp?) and gave me the
number for an endocrinologist (sp?) it was
weird, that cealis really didnt work at
all btw. went and talked to him and again
took a blood test. this time my levels
were perfectly normal yet i was still
unable to attain an erection. it seemed to
help if i hadnt masterbated in upwards of
4-5 days (long time) but that is way too
long to wait. so the docs told me theres
nothin wrong with me, i just have to wait
nearly a week after a release to be able
to perform...?!?!?!? ive had alot of weird
looks from gf's while they were on their
knees and this is so freakin embarresing i
cant even describe it. any info is
appreciated!

That doesn't seem normal to me. Did you
see the endocrinologist or just your
regular doctor again?
If your doctor is trying to tell you that
it's normal, see a different one. That's
my advice.

told me how much that must suck. they just

It worries me that your testosterone
levels were low the first time. I would
push them to figure that out. Or see
another doctor who will be of more help.
Otherwise, if there's nothing physically
wrong, it could be a mental issue, perhaps
a sex therapist?

sex therapist is out. its not mental
because i can attain an erection after
like 5 days or so. i also found it really
odd that my levels were low at first. they
also took an mri of my pituitary and there
was nothing wrong with that....im just out
of ideas and frustrated to say the least

I'd say continue on with doctors and find
out why you are low one time and normal
another. Did those days coincide with
presence or absence of masturbation?
How's your diet? Raw fruits and veggies?
Exercise? Supplements?

my diet is fairly healthy for a teenager,
if not a little better. im training to be
a navy seal so im definely excercising
enough. lift around 4-5 dyas a week, run 5
days a week and swim 7 days a week. what
effect would fruits and veggies have?
