I'm 49 and for past 2-3 years my penis has been feeling less sensitive and more numb. I have morning wood less, have less desire to masturbate but think about sex a lot. It's not as easy to get hard like I used to before and now it usually requires the sight of an erect cock to get hard. When I'm with a guy I have no problem remaining hard and I cum loads because it has built up over the week. I used need to wank every night and now I never wank as the desire never is there. It feels sometimes as if my whole groin area is more numb. When I do cum it's not as pleasurable as it once was and there is zero tingling sensation. I feel envious when I read the younger guys on here talking about their orgasms and constant need for sex.

I have attributed it to so many things - the covid vaccine, the age factor, testosterone, underlying medical condition, too much cycling, a potential STD that I amn't aware of that has destroyed the brain, sitting too long on the loo and resultant nerve damage, a minor stroke.

Finally I plucked up the courage to consult with a urologist. I'm going to see him next week but don't know what he'll be able to do especially if it's an underlying medical condition. Maybe he'll just say to me that this is owing to age but at 49 I feel too young to lose sensitivity. It's actually very depressing as it feels like that part of my life is over and I love sex. Any advice anyone? What might the urologist test?

You are older than myself, but I had a urologist check something out for me before. My guess is he will do a blood test to check different things, but be prepared he may do a prostate exam as well. Explain well to him what is going on and he will do proper testing to rule out different things. A blood test will tell him many things. Don't panic, it may be something that is easy to correct.

Dude the best advise is tell him everything!!!!
Most is due to age some could be medication dude you are going through what a lot of men go through NEVER be ashamed to tell your doctor anything if you want them to help you. He may suggest a sensitize cream a ED drug pill or injection whatever the doctor recommends go for it. I was having a issue and he recommended Tri mix injections dude I was hard as a rock as if I was a teenager again (hope that comment did not break the rules) but it is true and it lasted untill we were tired out and spent

So don’t hold back don’t be embarrassed he has herd it all
Good luck

I definitely won't be embarrassed but it's not so much an erection issue but more of a sensitivity issue. When a guy sucks me, for example, my sensitivity is very poor. I'll know his lips are circling my penis but I just won't feel a tingle. It's a disembodied feeling. I'd that how it feels for elderly men? I'm only 49.

I'm older than you, and I'd agree there can be a sensitivity issue. It certainly takes me longer to finish than it ever did, but when I finally do, it's worth it. You're doing the right thing by going to a urologist. Be honest with him. He's heard it all. No need to be shy. His job is too help you enjoy your sexuality. Keep us updated.
