on what level does pumping help ED?

[mega D]

Obviously it will help short term but does it help long term as well? Meaning, can I pump throughout the week and then on the weekend have better erection quality? It seems like there's just poor blood flow (i.e, the base of my penis seems to fill up before the rest at times as if there's something hindering the flow at some point) so I'm wondering if daily use of a bathmate, or something similar, will help things flow better in general.

I'm fairly young, 25, and I've been dealing with weaker erections for a few years (rare morning wood, weak/hard to maintain erections, trouble filling up, and overall just abnormal feeling), along with some strange urination issues. I finally went to see a urologist, described my symptoms, and the doctor ended up just giving me samples of Viagra and told me to call him if I needed a prescription. That was it. I tried out the Viagra and didn't find it to really be helpful at all. I'm actually kind of annoyed that's all he did. I'm going to contact him next week and hopefully get him to consider what I'm saying more seriously.

I went a long time numbing myself, trying not to think about it, and now I really want to get my life back on track. It's kept me from pursuing a normal life but I'm worried it's never going to get better at this point.

Hey mega D!

Pumping has helped some guys improve ther erection quality by forcing healing oxygenated blood into damaged tissue, but definitely not everyone. If you do not want to start a fairly aggressive pumping routine to promote girth, a cheap sex shop pump should allow you to test pumping to see if it helps with your EQ.

dont pump to a high vacuum level, just to the point you start to feel discomfort and then back off slightly. Pulse pumping also helps - pump up as above for three minutes and then reduce the vacuum to a lower vacuum level for 30 seconds. Repeat five times.

Get one with a pressure gauge for safety. Do you watch a lot of porn? Were there any conditions that would have damaged the tissues?

Hey!

This is exactly what I was wondering. If it's just a quick fix, then I don't think I'm interested, but if there's room to actually heal then that's what I'm looking for.

I was considering ordering a Bathmate Hercules since it's the cheapest model but still very effective from what I'm reading.

I've heard bathmates are relatively safe compared to other pumps so that's part of why I was considering one.

But yeah, I watch a decent amount of porn. I don't think that's the issue though. It seems physical rather than psychological but maybe I'm underestimating the psychological hold of too much porn.

The weak erections seem to coincide with a case of chlamydia I, unfortunately, contracted a few years back. I was hoping it was just temporary but even after treatment it didn't help. The physician I talked to before going to see a urologist didn't seem to think chlamydia could cause something like this though.

I'm wondering if I just have some other kind of chronic infection caused by it that's 'keeping me down'.

stop watching porn forever

I think that is definitely a contributing factor but I still think there's another bigger underlying issue but no one seems to take me seriously. They all say "well, a young guy like you shouldn't be dealing with this..." but I am.

Pumping can be useful. Have you looked into performing stamina based training?
