    New guy, not looking for enlargement but for ED advice.
    I'm rapidly approaching my 49th birthday and after a very healthy sex life, I've started to experience difficulties with gaining and maintaining erections.
    A bit of history I guess...
    I'm an Aussie, throughout my youth and early teens I thought I wasn't terribly well endowed, and my early forays into the sexual arena saw me suffer from no small amount of premature ejaculation... Something I combated with Taoist pelvic floor exercises. I also spent a lot of time learning other ways to please women to make up for my perceived lack of endowment. For many years I really did think my partners were just being nice. I certainly wasn't shy of sharing it around though lol.
    Fast forward to university, some 5 years after I'd finished school, having completed an apprenticeship and electrical engineering, I entered a world of arts and humanities and the very liberated students that accompanied it and I saw for the first time myself on video. I realised at that time I didn't have anything to be ashamed of, and things got kinda weird after that.
    I spent quite a few years working as an escort.
    Fast forward to today, two wives and 6 kids later, {first wife and I are still close friends, second wife passed away) and my current partner and I usually had an extremely good sex life.. Right up until about 8 months ago when I began to have.. Difficulties...
    I wasn't shy of approaching my doctor, and having done the research I discussed many options. I've tried the trimix of alprostadtil, phentalomine and papaverive with great results.. But having to inject was a bit of an inconvenience (but the 3-4 hour long hard on was pretty impressive). I now have cialis, 20mg, which I take about once a week, depending on how often my partner comes over (we live apart, she has one young child and I have three). It's not bad, my penis behaves as it should, but at $24 per tablet it's quite expensive!
    The biggest thing for me wasn't so much the sexual part, but the lack of the normal response.. When we were naked in bed and I'm feeling the excitement but my penis had no response... That really hit me hard. So regardless if we actually plan on having sex or not, I'll still take it. Simply to keep that 'normal' response happening.
    I guess what I'm searching for is some alternative methods I can use to help boost my normal response, and to possibly get back to having our normal sex sessions, without having to hurry it up before it goes down, which often leaves me unsatisfied, as many times my penis has quit before I've ejaculated... She's all good, as she's incredibly orgasmic and shes had a dozen or so orgasms herself.. But having to rely on the cialis to be able to see myself through to completion is a little bothering, for me.
    So that's really what I'm searching for.
    Hoping I can find some answers...

    Hmm So I take it hormone levels have been tested what are the numbers? There would have been many other tests what were they and what was the results?

    Ok so Taoist pelvic floor exercise could mean many different things . If you have in effect done kegels with no reverse kegels you could have run yourself into issues .

      I honestly don't know what the levels were... All I can say is the doctor said yep they're getting low.. And we discussed options.
      The pelvic floor exercises started over 30 years ago now.. The goal from them was to learn to use my pelvic floor muscles to control my ejaculation, and they were fantastically successful. Even today I can use them to control my flow of urine and essentially prevent ejaculation while still experiencing the orgasm. One thing I've maintained is a pretty good level of fitness, and I walk between 5-10km daily.
      The pelvic floor exercises I've known as something called the deer exercise, and it's part of a meditative technique. They are essentially kegels. Though theyre not rapid, more slower and prolonged tightening and relaxing of the pelvic floor.
      I'm interested to now what a reverse kegels is.. It's not something I've heard of before.
      Thanks for your reply

        Welcome to the forum!

        I'm a bit older than you and I also found this site while searching for help with my ED issues. I read that one of the first results many see when starting out with a PE routine is improved EQ. Sure I was skeptical about this and even more skeptical about the possibility of enlarging my penis but I figured I had nothing to loose. To my surprise my EQ did start to improve and even more surprising I was gaining size. Give it a try, you have nothing to loose. All the information you will need go get started can be found in the START HERE! link at the top left of the page. Also start a good kegel routine.

        Kegel Exercises


        Pelvic Floor Balance

        Minuteman's Kegel Master List

        The other thing you need to be aware of is the psychological effect you will now be facing. Performance anxiety can be a real erection killer. Worrying about getting/maintaining an erection during intercourse takes the focus off from the enjoyment of sex that got you aroused in the first place. This can be difficult to overcome but as your EQ improves your confidence will also.

        Good luck and ask as many questions as you like, we are here to help.
        To totally satisfy a woman sexually is not about having a large penis, it's about being a good lover.

          Thank you for the reply
          The last thing I need is enlargement lol.. I've hurt my partner on more that the odd occasion, not that she was complaining at the time but improving my erection quality is certainly something I'm keen to learn more about. Thank you for the links, I'll be reading up on those for sure!
          I still maintain my pelvic floor routine as part of my daily meditation, though I'm keen to look into the options I have available
          Cheers.

              Ok so you have done kegel without reverse kegel. Too much yang not enough yin, Or too much strength training not enough stretching . I will find a link for you .

              The hormone issue may be central see if you can find out what the levels were a retest may be a good idea if it was some time ago.

                    I guess the biggest thing was when it started to just go down in the middle of business... My partner was worried that she'd done something wrong, or that she wasn't attractive anymore (sooo not the case).
                    Oddly enough it wasn't having to take anything to have sex that bothered me as much as the lack of response from just ordinary excitement of our bodily contact, when sex isn't even on the menu.
                    That might seem weird, being worried about not getting a boner that isn't going to even be used... But the mind is a funny thing.
                    So I guess that's the thing that stands out most for me.
                    My partner thinks it's silly for me to take the cialis even if its not going to be 'used', for want of a better word, but for me it's more about the psychological effect it has in relation to the absence of typical function than the deed itself. If I'm excited and turned on by the presence of my lady then I damn well want my dick to show it.

                      I really would be having a close look at hormone levels .

                      Was there any event that happened in the lead up to ed.

                        I can't identify any particular event... But I do intend on getting my hormone levels checked again.
                        I'll follow it up with my GP on my next visit

                          Your story is extremely common. Often, the addition of your partner's during the scenario worry can make things more difficult. If you know there's nothing physically wrong with your penis then learn to accept these types of setbacks with grace and even humor. That's the best way to "immunize" yourself from developing chronic performance anxiety.

                          Adding to negative incidents with more negativity will make the issue worse. This goes for both parties involved. Talk this over with your partner and assure them the issue isn't with them and that there's nothing to seriously concern themselves over.

                            Umm I get the idea you expect to get a no touch erection due to the presence of your partner.

                              The placebo effect. A truly astonishing power of the mind and body. Probably my favorite topic to research. It's amazing you give a person a sugar pill and they think it's some actual drug that is going to help them, and more often than not, the body starts to heal itself.

                              I've read studies with people with severe anxiety, take a pill they think is and anti-anxiety med, and instantly they calm down, when the drug wouldn't have even started working for a half hour.

                              I think the placebo effect is what is happening to you. It helped me as well, taking a Cialis one time helped me over the hump of performance anxiety like you described.
