  • ED & PE and my journey to heal

    Hey guys,

    New to the forums and I've been struggling with ED and PE for as long as I can remember. Im in my late twenties, and recently ended my previous relationship a few weeks ago which i've heavily relied on daily cialis pills. At the very end I attempted to have sex without the pill, and while i got semi hard it was very difficult to insert. I did not lose my virginity until my mid twenties and have had issues since day 1. This was one of the big reasons my previous relationship failed, and I cannot have this ruining any future relationships to come. I have not had consistent morning wood since early high school, and honestly don't think I have been getting hard at night either as I am a light sleeper and have only maybe woken up a handful of times over the past decade to a weak erection.

    I have since started a workout routine of 3x a week, 1 hr of intense cardio (running, kickboxing/boxing classes), no porn or masturbation (not sure if nofap is looked down on here) and attempting Minuteman's Kegel routine as described exactly. https://www.pegym.com/forums/prematu...tml#post496995

    The lack of libido and urge is soul crushing. In the past 21 days since I have started I have only have tiny urges and on a single occasion a very weak MW which may have been attributed to a ton of zinc i took the night before. I am now experimenting with this to see if this will help give me back occasional MW.

    T levels and prolactin/hormal levels were fine when I went to the Urologist. The only thing they mentioned I had was a birth defect called Chordee, and surgery would help fix straightening of the penis but told me it would do little to help with the bloodflow. I cannot get hard with touch alone, and even with porn when i was watching it I could only get an EQ of about a 6-7. Im at a loss right now and hoping I can get some reassurance from someone who maybe experienced similar issues or some guidance on some additional steps I can take to help heal.

    For Kegels I have primarily been doing this while sitting upright in a chair. Should I try to switch this up and attempt to do this while lying down or walking?

    I am also having an extremely hard time understanding Reverse Kegels. I feel like I have it correct as if i push while peeing while taking a shower, I can see my stream shoot further but I always seem to hold my breathe while performing this. Will this just take time to overcome?

    I am at the point where I will pay for whatever costs are necessary to rule out physical causes. Can anyone recommend any further tests to request? When i went to the Urologist over a year ago, they shot me full of something that gave me a 7-8 EQ and i would assume looked at blood flow to rule out Venous leak. That and some blood tests were the only things I have done so far.

    Thanks for viewing and any response!

    Never ever accept being told "normal' or" fine" for hormone levels .
    Get the numbers post them here .
    I will make a bet right now your testosterone is under 500 despite your current attempts to raise it .

    Some authors advise against kegels in a chair for guys with pre e . We use pre e rather than pe as pe is penis exercise.
    Reverse kegel (rk) can be difficult and you are making progress ,now work on doing them without pissing . In time you can improve the isolation.

      I hope you read the forwar to Minutemans work where he recommends rk be included in kegel training.

        Pegasus,

        Thank you for the response! I didn't get my hormonal levels checked again this year yet but went to my general practitioner and got just a general checkup & bloodwork. Last years' Testosterone results were in the high 700s. I am not sure when i am going to go back but once i request that my hormonal levels are checked again this year I will make sure to post them.

        Appreciate the clarification with the pre e and PE.

            Do i just request full hormonal bloodwork? What are some other tests i can request to rule out physiological ED? Should i make an appointment with an endocrinologist for the hormone test or should I just go to the Urologist?

                The simplest test to perform would be the stamp test for testing nocturnal penile tumescence.

                The following should be helpful for this (as well as additional data): Dealing with ED/Impotence

                  Prolactin - 7.4
                  Estradiol -
                  19
                  Testosterone, Total -
                  789
                  Sex hormone BNG glob - 72
                  Testosterone, Free -
                  96

                      Thanks for looking over my numbers! Im beginning to lose hope over the past 3 years that this is never going to get better. Only until recently within the past 5 weeks have I been trying everything possible for improvements. I have been on NOFAP since then as well and the only real difference i've noticed is my penis seems to be a bit fuller throughout the day day and im randomly getting semi hard. Even at my hardest though it just hangs, and if i Kegel as hard as i can it does not even come close from pointing away from the floor. In addition I've noticed my precum when i am horny is 10x worse and was already extremely bad. Is this just normal for some people or could this somehow be tied in with the ED/PE problem?
