With the high number of males who have the issue, they will not be terribly surprised and will hopefully have suggestions for you.

Avatar f tn Having soft erections is a form of erectile dysfunction, as you know, and this can happen as we age. Medication can widen blood vessels and leads to firmer erections. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/ed-cures-for-seniors It sounds like you pay attention to your health which is great. You want to rule out that first as the underlying cause. Treat whatever issue there is. If you've done that, then it is time to ask your doctor for help.
Avatar m tn Viagra, or any of the PDE5's is probably not the correct treatment for ED in a man of your age. Lloyd's will always sell you drugs, that's what they do. 95% of erectile dysfunction in a man of your age is caused by Performance Anxiety. The remaining 5% -- diabetes, venous leak and so on are very rare. What you have is easy to fix. Just take intercourse off the menu for a while. No performance no anxiety. Good luck. Hope this helps..

Avatar n tn A lot depends on overall health, but by age 70, about 15% of men experience complete erectile dysfunction. About 70% will have experienced mild or moderate ED. (https://www.uwhealth.org/urology/erectile-dysfunction-ed/20537) You posted in the Prostate Cancer forum. Have you had prostate cancer? That could certainly be a factor, or the treatment of it could be. The meds you take have been shown to help some men with ED, but a lot depends on the cause of it.
Avatar n tn Erectile dysfunction at your age would be extremely rare and like your doctor said, it tends to be psychological. Your mind has a lot of power over what happens to your body physically. If you feel nervous at all, upset, stressed out, etc all of this can affect erections and cause you to lose it. There really isn't a quick fix, but it'd be good to try to think about what else may be going on in your life.
Avatar m tn There are no exercises for the penis which can help in erectile dysfunction but doing moderate exercises may help in regularizing blood sugar levels which can reverse erectile dysfunction. Also do not take any over the counter drugs as it may be having potential more dangerous side effects which you are already having due to the drug. Lastly, at your age and with your previous sexual history, it can be psychological as performance based anxiety.

It is essential that you control your hypertension as best as you can to prevent further progression of LVH. LVH refers to the thickening of the heart muscle as a response to high blood pressure. It is not uncommon to have erectile dysfunction accompany hypertension. To answer your questions specifically 1.
Avatar m tn It could be a number of things, depending on your age, health, nutrition, etc. For example, diabetes can have an effect on erections, as can many medications. Psychological reasons are also very, very common: it may be that you’re feeling stressed about things unrelated to sex, it may be that you feel “performance anxiety,” etc. Or you could be feeling physically uncomfortable.
Avatar n tn It is not specific to a particular age, but is more common in elderly men.

612551 tn?1450022175 So far, little or no help from stopping beta blocker and statin drugs. My cardiologist thought this would not help but allowed me trying... he also recommended Cialis and I tried the low dose daily for a week and even with a double does (two time 2.5) then the 20 mg a couple hours before. None gave any real help. There is other evidence I can achieve ... it may be I'm just still in "shock" that the opportunity has arisen at my "advanced" age.
Avatar n tn I read that masturbation depletes your testerone, and this could cause erectile dysfunction. I know that erectile dysfunction is caused by not enough blood flow in the tissues of the penis, and can affect penis growth. I haven't started growing yet, and I'm very worried I never will. My main questions are basically- Do I have erectile dysfunction? Is it caused by over-masturbation or the recent injury? What can I do? I'm only 13. Will it affect my penis growth?
Avatar f tn See a urologist who specializes in erectile dysfunction. Alternatively, you could have your primary care doctor prescribe Viagra and see if that works for you.
Avatar n tn I did that search and found this from the May Clinic - ______________________________________________________________ Erectile dysfunction (ED) is the inability of a man to maintain a firm erection long enough to have sex. Although erectile dysfunction is more common in older men, this common problem can occur at any age. Having trouble maintaining an erection from time to time isn't necessarily a cause for concern.
Avatar n tn I am a 25 year old married male in decent physical shape. I am taking no prescriptions, have no diseases or health issues.However, I do have problems with erectile dysfunction. My wife and I have been married for 5 years now and our sexual relationship has gone down the drain. I still find her very attractive but I do not have near the desire to have sex with her like I did 4 years ago. We usually have intercourse maybe once a week and I can never stay fully erect during it.
