Q: Erectile Disfunction And Cererberal Palsey

Help , I am dating the kindest sweetest man I have ever known, we are both 30 years old. He has cereberal palsey , not bad just a slight limp when he walks.The cp has caused some damage to his lower back, we have become sexually active and I have noticed that he is able to get an erection but is not able to keep it. The few times he has been able to keep it he rarley ejaculates. Sometimes he does sometimes he doesnt. Oral sex doesnt even seem to stimulate him to ejaculation. I am so frustrated I feel like im not turning him on ... He assures me its not me ..... Maybe its him.. I guess my question is ..............Do you think the cereberal palsey could be effecting the stimulation he feels or doesnt feel during sex? I have tried to find info on this subject but have had no luck. I love this man intensly I just wonder if I will spend the rest of my life never being sexually satisfied?Or what the options are for this situation thank you

Both conditions have vascular causes that progress in the whole
body. Therefore, erectile dysfunction is just a symptom of a very
serious health issue (congenital arterial and heart abnormalities)
that doctors cannot treat yet and therefore ignore it.
If you love him, stay with him regardless of the his deteriorating health
situation. Erectile dysfunction is one of his smallest problems.

Yes, it is possible for that to be a cause, but not always.
A lot of it can be just stress, so don't just assume that it is a really serious problem.

There Is No Such Thing As Stress Or Anxiety.
The actual thing is called endothelial dysfunction that is a vascular
change (degradation) which doesn't allow the body to grow new
vessels inside your body to repair the tissue and oxygenate
properly the body for continuous sustenance.
Only angiogenic gene therapy (now in clinical trials) if performed
on the very young can save these patients on long term.

Try talking to a doctor who is familiar with cerebral palsy.It is a neurological condition that usually occurs at birth due to lack of oxygen or during pregnancy.If he is not able to control certain muscles,it is very possible that this is also part of his disease.There is a cp forum on this site,maybe someone there can give you more info or has insight on this.If he is the sweetest,kindest guy you've ever met,that is a hard thing to find.Try to find out as much as you can about his illness and how you can enhance your intimate relationship.There are many ways to show your love for each other,it does not always have to be sexual.Good luck to both of you.Patty
