18 & never had an erection…
by: HS
on Mon, Sep 17 2007
-I am 18 years old…
-I have never had a morning erection!
-I have never had a proper erection!
-I have never had a random erection!
-I have never had an erection in my dreams and at night!
-I have only 2% functional sperms!!!!
-I am also 50% in terms of what I should be from my sperm analysis! I have half the average guy in terms of being able to have a good amount of sperm. And 98% of my sperms are not functional.
-My erections are weak and floppy and points down and is a bit hard and flops. Sometimes it is a bit hard but it points down! And my orgasm is not so nice and it feels boring! My terribly weak and poor erections feel lifeless and limp!
-My testosterone level was low and my estrogen level was high.
-My testicles are 4x smaller too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-Clearly I have a problem as my erections are poor and have always pointed down and flop! When I try to orgasm for the 2nd time round, even if it is after some hours, my penis is floppy and soft! And never having a morning erection is insane!
-What is wrong?!!!!!!! I am going insane!
-I also had a hernia operation when I was a baby on my left groin!!! I also had undescended testicles.
-I am going to see an endocrinologist first in London in the next month or so, I guess, and then the endocrinologist will see which urologist is suitable for me, so they can both work on me.
-Cialis (like viagra) did not work! Clearly my problem is deeper as I have never had a morning, random or normal erection!!!!!!! And my testicles are small! My testicles are too small.
-Has my hernia operation done damage to my nerve (s) or something? That cuts off the signals for erections to occur and preventing penis/testicle growth? My penis and testicle size have remained the same since I was 12 or 13!!!!!!!!
-I have phimosis too, but I know from research etc, I can cure that by exercises. But my other PROBLEMS are so huge!!!
-My ultrasound scan showed that my penis and testicles are okay and my testicles are functioning. I had my testicle sizes reported but I did not get anything on my penis. The nurse on the day of the scan said my penis appears to be fine and so did my Dr when I saw her again. (The right testicle measures 2.78cm in length and 1.49cm in maximum AP diameter. However the right testicle appears of normal homogeneous echogenicity with no evidence of focal lesions or diffuse parenchymal changes. Normal blood flow was demonstrated to the right testicle on colour Doppler. The left epididymis and the left testicle are normal. No abnormal fluid collection seen. There is no evidence of varicocoele [varicocele] formation). The scan showed I am ok though but my size is just small. The left one is normal. But my specialist said my testicles are too small for an 18-year old, too, and on the testicle chart I am 4x smaller to what I should be! Note: I am healthy and have body and pubic hair. I do not drink, smoke and do drugs.
-The Dr said my problem is linked to muscles and could be my nerves perhaps up to the brain, etc? Any more advice/information? It could link to my HERNIA OPERATION???!! Or my HORMONES could play a huge role in my problems! Or my undescended testicle operation?
-As my ultrasound scan showed I am okay. Why is my penis never ever erecting as it should? Ever? Even in my dreams etc? And why are my testicles small? And why has my penis size remained the same from when I was 12? This is very odd and killing me! I have never in my life noticed a size change in my penis and my testicles!
-My penis has not changed from age 12-13!!!!! so my tesicles size, penis size, and erection problems links up i guess!! there must be some chemical problem/hormone etc i think. But a good endocrinologist would clear that! Then I think the cause is left with my HERNIA OPERATION I HAD AS A BABY ON MY LEFT GROIN! Is this the cause? or my undescended testicles operation?
-Also my penis is ok in terms of pain. I NEVER have felt pain.
-When I masturbate, I don’t really feel the thrill. I cannot erect properly! I am 18!
-I beg someone to give me real advice and the most likely cause to my problem! And any cure!! Please, I am so terrified!

- Gradual but complete ED - by CB - (Sun, Sep 30 2007)
I was about 48 when I noticed things were different. Erections took longer to form, weren’t as firm and didn’t last as long, frequently unable to complete intercourse. I hadn’t had a physical in a while, was taking antidepressants, mildly elevated blood pressure, mild hypothyroid, mildly lowered testosterone, extremely high triglycerides.

I was dating a man for three years, when we started being intimate, we started foreplay and then he started this banging stuff, let me remind you that he’s in his 40’s. I’ve been in two long term relationships, and personally, I haven’t experienced anything like that before.

- ED - VERY DIFFICULT SITUATION - by JJ - (Sat, Sep 22 2007)
Hi to all.
I’m the partner of ED sufferer and it’s great to have a place to come and see that I (we) are not alone.
We have been together for about 11 years and during the first month or so of beginning sexual intimacy there was a problem of Premature Ejaculation. He saw a specialist and was given Viagra and Injections.

I wish my husband would even try as hard as you have, but he refuses. The pills will work, but he won’t even take them anymore. He won’t try anything ! That’s just it ! I don’t press him, or pressure him anymore either and mostly do for myself, but that’s getting OLD ! I guess I will just have to give up on that part of my life, because I can’t make him.

- My story - by Sad and scared - (Fri, Sep 14 2007)
I’ve been reading the posts here and would like to share my story, for what it may be worth. My husband had some symptoms of ED or other sexual problems early in our relationship (when he was in his early 30s)–frantic pumping, intercourse over very quickly (within seconds).

- Is it me? - by Cathy - (Sat, Sep 08 2007)
My husband suffers from low levels of testosterone. This leads to low libidi & erectile dysfunction. For many years into our marriage, we were not aware of the medical cause and this made both of us feel inadequate.

- Unbelievable stories - by TW - (Fri, Sep 07 2007)
I happened to accidently stumble upon this website and was totally surprised at some of the letters I read. I had no conceivable idea that such a large number of males suffered from ED and from any/all ages and walks of life. It made me wonder if anyone is doing anything to fight and/or cure this affliction.
