Thalassemia, Difficulty Maintaining Erection, Tiredness, Cialis, Not Overweight. Is There A Blockage Of Prostate?

38 year old male.. difficulty in maintaining erection consistently.. tried viagra, cialis and other similiar types and none seem to work.. i haven't had but two full erections (100%) throbbing in the last 10 years.. most times is 60-80 percent erect but that last 20 is most important.. i had been on 2cc of depo. every two weeks up until a month ago.. it did help some .. but normally ... I am not overweight still fairly athletic.. i have been diagnosed with thalassemia but i had no problems up until about 10-12 years ago.. could this be a coronary issue.. ? could i possible have a blockage or an issue with my prostate ? I am desperate here.. My previous urologist just kept me on the depo. for the last 2 years and it got my T-level up but we haven't gone any further... what can i do ? can you point me in the right directions.. this is killing sex life with my wife and my self esteem..help me please

Hi,
Thank you for choosing Healthcaremagic. Your erectile dysfunction could be due to Thalassemia itself, may be due to decreased blood supply, may be due to blockage of veins. Erection is not related to prostate.
