Hi all, I was wondering if anyone young-ish (late 20s) with ED(?) has had tips for getting taken seriously? I’ve been to 2 urologists and each one pretty much walked in, said it’s neurological, and prescribed pills. I’ve gone from being able to have sex for hours (even if not fully erect) to basically losing all energy as soon as I cum which feels like it’s more physical than anything but dunno.

    That’s what happens once you shoot your goo. That’s not Erectile Dysfunction, that’s just the finished state. ED is difficulty getting and maintaining an erection, if you’re going for hours before you orgasm, you don’t have ED, you might actually be desensitized. If you want a lot, you’ll probably want to cut back significantly on that, especially in the leadup time to having sex, and loosen your grip when wanking.

    It sounds like you have might have a bit of warped perception based on pornstars seemingly going for extended periods of time and having orgasms without losing hardness, just remember, that porn was mostly likely multiple hours or even days of filming and is edited down into a single video.

    You are aware that cumming is usually the point at which you are done, correct? I’m not discrediting your experience, but I do wonder that’s why you aren’t being taken seriously.

      Seconded… OP, are you saying you’ve gone to two doctors to complain that you have a refractory period?

        You can always try blue chew or some other med. I don’t usually have issues getting it up but sometimes I just want to go for an extended sesh with a friend I haven’t been with in a while and it keeps me hard and also prevents me from cumming so fast. Exercise might also help if you find yourself not as active as before.
