Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
ia am a 55 year old man which for the last two years or so ia have been masturbating at least once per day. i blame this practice on the account that i have been under extreme stress, anxiety, and so forth due to financial problems and lack of work. problem is, i have begun to with erectile dysfunction although i still ejaculate semen with a flaccid penis. can this be cured? thanks.
I can certainly understand your concern and suffering...It is clearly stated by you that you would masturbate and there is problem with your erection...The reason is your mind is with full of stress of course because of financial matters or somehow but definitely this would affect your sexual performance...So I would advise you to follow some relaxation techniques like breathing exercises and you can start some antianxiety drugs ie SSRIs like escitalopram..I would like to know about your sleep pattern which is the common parameter than gets affected with such stress. You can also start clonazepam in the nights to get rid of your anxiety and for good sleep. Other measures you can follow are avoid smoking, alcohol, maintain adequate weight , perform some pelvic exercises to help you better. You can also start sildenafil to improve your erection, by the production of nitric oxide NO. You can consult your psychiatrist for further details
