Do Kegel Exercises Cause Errectyl Dysfunction?

default
Posted on Fri, 11 Dec 2015
Question: i did kegel exercises 2 years ago , but i was doing it 24 hours and i think i did it in a wrong way or something. however , after 5 months of doing it , i got erectile dysfunction. my erection was amazing and it last too much time. now it doesn't even last for few seconds and weak very short pennis . this is now going on with me for 1 year and 9 months. i test all tests and there is no cure for me cuz i don't have any problem as doctors claim. but it is not phsycological because im measuring my erection when i wake up. early morning erection is so weak and small it doesn't even good to insert it in a woman. check my reports

please note , im sure from my all previous tests it is something related to musceles or nervous system not blood. so in case you prefer to consult with another doctors together it will be good idea since my problem is very complicated and it needs a doctor who has physiotherapy back ground to help me i think.

Brief Answer:
kegel exercise is not responsible, intervention by spine surgeon is needed

Detailed Answer:
Hello Moh. Al Fahel,

Thanks for writing back to us. I am sure that kegel exercise is not responsible for your erectile dysfunction. And you already mentioned that problem began after 5 months of doing it so there is no chance at all that it is responsible factor.

I have seen and reviewed your all reports. For erection sacral plexus nerve supply is responsible. In your MRI spine there is compression of S1 nerve root. This is likely related to your erection problem. It should be treated by surgical method by spine orhtopedic surgeon. It is treatable condition as per opinion of one of my spine surgeon friend.

Also let me know have you tried cialis (tadalafil) in 20-40 mg dose range or not? If yes how was the response?

Though xatral is less likely to cause ED, in my opinion if you do not have any prostate/urinary symptoms it should be stopped.

Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further.
Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki.
