Patient discussion about Dysfunctions.
Q. I started to suffer from erectile dysfunction? Why is this happening and what can I do to treat it? I am a healthy 52 year old. I have hypertension but i take pills to treat it and my levels are around 130/80. except that I am at great shape.
In the last few months I feel that a problem in my sex life. I want to have sex but i can't due to erectile dysfunction.
What can be the reason for this? and more important what can I do?
A. There can be many reasons for erectile dysfunction, but hypertension is the most probable cause in your situation. I suffer from hypertension and is complications that are damage to small blood vessels that are responsible for a good erection.
To treat this you need to go to your GP, and simultaneously take better control on your blood pressure. You can do it by doing more walking and sports.
Q. Im a 29 yr old male that has pain after masturbation seems like the longer i go without the better I feel? Should I not masturbate at all? I have had 2 urethral scricture surguries and my doctor he seen no reason for the pain. I feel less of a man because I want to have a healthy sexual relationship with my partner. Should I quit for a long period of time like 6 months and see if the condition will go away? Do you think I may have imflamation or cause damage to urethra from masturbation? Thanks for your time
A. I doubt masturbation causes damage to the urethra and I don't think you should avoid doing it just because of that, however it might be wise you perform more tests to see the urethra after the surgeries, and whether or not there is still a stricture that can explain any pain you are suffering from. Try and talk to your doctor about it or another doctor.
