ok this is kinda hard for me to talk about.. i talked with my doctor and he gave me Cialis 5mg once a day.. im 44 and have not had too many problems with erections.. i was on cyclobezaprine(muscle relaxer) stopped taking it because i was having problems urinating.. the Cialis5mg worked on the first night...had a boner i shoulda took some pictures lol it was nice and big thick and long..and the feeling it gave me i could go all night without cumming.and i was jerking off trying to cum and i couldnt.. [so the day after( took another) and the following day],, the day after my dick felt real heavy and was having trouble getting erect..also my overall health just seemed not good that day no sexual desire,,no boners nothing...so when the third day came.. i decided to not take another one...my blood pressure is normal and i am in really good overall health.. so i am thinking that Cialis and Viagra only work for certain people?? or maybe its a low dose that dont work for me.im 6'3 215.5mg..if there are blood pressure and heart related problems thats kinda scary to me..
my doc is testing me for low testosterone.. any advice or help would be great... ~whats a boner, if you cant make it climax!! thats kinda lame if the drug does something to your body to make you not cum..!! :( :eek:

I used to be proud of going a long time, backing off when close; but if I became too weary, sometimes I'd have to finish off by sitting on the side if the bed with my woman's lips open and waiting to catch the semen, as I pounded my desensitized tool into finally spewing. If I could go back in time, I would avoid self gratification, so only a woman's touch would ever bring me to delight. So, Sir, duly divorce that hand.

I know that this is going to be a little difficult, but the first thing you need to do about ED is to not be in any way self conscious, ashamed, frightened, or any other appropriate adjectives of it. I have had severe ED for over ten years and I endured moderate ED for about a decade before that. I talk freely about it, because as I have learned about this, my own knowledge now has the power to help others suffering from the same thing.

I have for many years had an Rx for Quadmix injectable for this condition even though I have recently discovered an oral combination that works at least to a point.

ED has numerous causes and it is not always the old standby's. Numerous medications effect erectile ability. Some OTC allergy medications can stop an erection cold and in fact some of these are used as the first line of defense for a drug induced priapism. That tells you how much is out there even OTC that can do this one.

Blood pressure drugs are usually a culprit but some drugs used to treat anxiety or depression can also cause ED or ejaculatory problems.

With regards to Sildenafil Citrate (Viagra) or Tadalafil (Cialis) my experience is that Sildenafil Citrate under the right circumstances can cause an inability to ejaculate under the right circumstances. I have had that experience when a standard dosage of a single med would work. If in my case the dosage is too low, I find myself mentally trying to keep the erection and that totally wipes my ability to reach ejaculation. If the dosage is higher then the problem diminishes. There is this middle of the road, and to me that is incredibly frustrating and results in the worst case of "blue balls" that could be imagined.

I have never had that problem in any manner with Tadalafil or in combo oral therapy. Remember that my ED is relatively severe and as a result I use injections at times.

Remember that normally Cialis/Tadalafil is prescribed in a 20mg dosage. The 5mg is basically a "daily" and the problem with this is that the "daily" first in some individuals does not build up sufficiently to work. If your system throws it off quickly then it won't work for you. I would suggest that you ask your Dr. for a sample of the 20mg pills and see if that works differently.

In medicine, there is a situation where the body adapts to or builds what is called a "tolerance" to the drug. This is possible for almost every drug known to mankind. ED drugs are not an exception to this rule.

These days I have to use a combination of Tadalafil and Sildenafil Citrate to work. Even then I have to take breaks from these two drugs for a few weeks because my own body builds tolerances and the dosage requirement goes up. This is when I resort to the injections and even that over time builds similar tolerances.

Let me use the injections as an example because it is easier to follow.

When I was initially given an Rx for Quadmix my Rx was written for a dosage that was 3 times what my initial titration dosage was. In the beginning, an injection at 1/3 dosage was effective for a 1.5-2.0 hour erection. By the end of the first 2 months after using the injectable several times per week, I had built a tolerance or resistance to the point that it took the full dosage to be effective.

The biggest problem for you may be titration or finding the proper dosage for you as an individual. Because something works well for a test subject who is 5'7 and 150 pounds in body weight does not mean that the same dosage will work for an individual who stands 6'6" and weighs 100 pounds more.

Oral medications are more impacted by bodyweight than are injectables. An oral medication first has to go through the digestive system and then it has to circulate throughout your entire body for effectiveness. The larger the body and the circulatory system involved the more common chemistry comes in to play. The solution is more diluted because there is a greater circulatory volume.

Head back to the Doc see if you can try a couple of 20mg pills and if you have the same results.

Good Luck and hope that this has been of help. . . . .

wow thanks so much for you post ken...really informative and im so sorry what your going through..i am starting to think different things about this condition.. e.d. is not a fun thing to go through.. it causes mental emotional and spiritual problems on top of the one thing, that certain men seem to get it and have problems, and others do not.. as it is i guess pretty common as you age.. i noticed a few years ago if my parterners wanted to move around alot during intercourse like try other positions...i would immetately loose my boner.. im not super big only 7c and pretty thick..never had any complaints...anyway im srry i tend to ramble a bit.. i stopped taking the Cialis after only two doses... why? because the next day i felt ill low energy and i was dissapointed that i didnt get off the night before.[but this could be from other medications im on].i go back to see the doctor tomarrow and, if there are blood pressure and heart related problems with these pills..then thats hardley worth it.. do i think i have e.d. im not so sure about that,, got off fine last night after being off the Cialis for a day..had a nice cum.which i was not able to cum on that pill.so and also i want to mention that i think guys start having these problems when you start doubting yourself..things like low self esteem depression anxiety all take a toll on you..stress in you life about different things ..bills ...relationships etc....so if he offers me a higher dose..the 20mg i might try it..im not sure if me being ill that day was from the pill...i am in pretty decent health....no heart problems..no health problems.. no std's...no hiv.(negative) so i dont know what gives maybe i have a type of sexual anxiety.. just dont know at this point and i will post what i find out thanks to all that shared :)

I am writing this in a different typeface to cut down on boredom. I have for many reasons become sort of an "expert" at this simply because necessity is the "mother" of invention.

When I was originally tested for ED in the interview one of the things that became obvious to me was that ED is in fact positional. Even without meds I have certain positions in which I can achieve at least a partial erection and in fact I even get weak morning wood if I am lying on my side when I wake up.

I think that the positional aspect is one of the most annoying parts of ED simply because you get going and then things head down and it all starts to go wrong with a simple position change. Again this is a marker that you do in fact have it and that it is not psychogenic in origin.

Psychogenic ED (created by stress, new sex partner etc.) is not sensitive to the position or as one might assume gravity.

Treating it is in some ways a multi-step approach and sadly most MD's do not treat it correctly. Even those that appear enlightened usually are not thorough enough.

In blood-work you need the following:

FSH
Serum Testosterone
Free Floating Testosterone
Estiadol
DHT
Prolactin

FSH is Follicle Stimulating Hormone, this is the hormone that your Pituitary sends to regulate testicular output of testosterone. If you have a high level of FSH and a low testosterone level then the testes are to blame. If you have a low FSH level with a low testosterone level then the problem is that the testicles are not being told by their regulatory system to produce.

Serum Testosterone is the most common test run, the problem is that it is not always a good guideline. They always want to get a serum level early in the morning because that is when it is at it's highest level. This is deceptive because if the level drops below accepted norms at any time you are still in trouble.

Free Floating Testosterone is what your body has available for use. Free Floating is a better guideline. If you are producing testosterone and your body is not converting it for use the Serum or blood level for testosterone is absolutely useless

Estiadol is the term for Estrogen. Males all have a small quantity of estrogen in their systems and this is normal. The problem is that Estiadol (Estrogen) competes for the same receptor sites as the testosterone. Thus it becomes a blocking agent preventing you from using the testosterone you are making. If that level is at all elevated above where it should be, a drug called an Estrogen "antagonist" is given and this prevents the estrogen (Estiadol) from getting to the receptor sites and opens the door for your testosterone to do the job. Estiadol often elevates as body fat percentages go up. This is why it is often elevated in older men.

DHT is Dihydrotestosterone. DHT is very important and has been in recent years demonized by a bunch of hustlers out to push medications that solve a problem in the wrong way. It is DHT that is responsible for all of your secondary sex characteristics, libido and genital function NOT the unconverted testosterone produced by the testes.

The last one that everybody overlooks in males is Prolactin. Prolactin in a female is used to induce the production of breast milk in nursing Mothers, men have it too, but in men it serves a very different purpose. In men it is used as a "control hormone". As you have intercourse and become increasingly excited working your way towards ejaculation your body prepares a bolus of prolactin at the moment of ejaculation this is released. This wilts the erection and causes the over sensitivity you feel in your penis right after having sex. If this level is even slightly elevated it can kill erectile function in a major way and often creates depression and libido issues as well. Most of the time as we age the level increase is idiopathic meaning it has no obvious cause. If one is overweight it tends to elevate too. It is prolactin in females that causes the depression and mood swings in many women during the time they are nursing. The solution is simple and that is a Prolactin antagonist. There are two different versions of this and in men when they are used if one does not work try the other one.

In order to treat ALL of ED one has to treat the entire person not just a single symptom. The sad fact is that most MD's are not well schooled in this and do not have the ability to do it well. If you have a really good MD who will forget the old and work into the future he needs the above blood panel and he needs to turn your blood panel into that of a 25 year old healthy male. Work with all the levels and get them into that range and if your ED is at all hormonal it will respond favorably. It may not go away simply because of a narrowing of the blood supply to the penis, but what it will do is make you feel a whole lot better, help you manage weight, and you do this while remaining healthy reversing some other conditions.

I had an MD in Orange County California who was doing this for me. I have only found one other doing this correctly and that is a Dr. John Chrisler in Flint, MI. I am certain that there are others, but I have not found them yet. MY own MD passed away suddenly of a stroke in 2010 and I am looking to get this fixed again too.

Also, if you have any male children make dead certain that they get records on their testosterone etc. levels as shown above. It is completely legal for an MD to prescribe testosterone replacement therapy and work the whole thing if medical records for a patient show that the levels were substantially different at a younger age.
