Suffering From Erectile Dysfunction. I Masturbate A Lot. What Should I Do? Suggest Some Medicine
Question: Hi Doctor,
I am 27 years old male. From past one year i am noticing soft erection in my penis or erectile dysfunction. I am getting married in few days and when i try to have sexual intercourse with my partner i get soft erection or erection for sometime. But when i masturbate i get full erection. When i wake up in the morning then also i get full erection. But in the day time i don't get hard erection.
Yes, i masturbate a lot. To be honest i do it 3-4 times daily (doing this from last 15 years). What are the possible reasons for this? Should i stop masturbating? Is there any quick jel or medicine which can help me getting a strong erection? I am not able to do intercourse till now. Please help.
thanks

Hi,
The problem you have outlined is quite common, and when a patient says he has good early morning erections, it basically suggests that there is no major issue which needs a surgery.
You could try using tablets belonging to what we call 'PDE5Inhibitors' - like Viagra - we have found excellent results, but you will need a urologist's prescription for that. Also, try and see if you can stop worrying about your future marriage - stress does dampen erections significantly.
You can try putting masturbation on hold for a couple of days and see if things work out better. Some drugs called Nitric Oxide donors also might be useful to replenish the nitric oxide which might get used up in frequent masturbation but these drugs can cause you mild to moderate headache.
Let me know if this has been useful.
Regards.
