I’m 29yrs old, 5′11, 200lbs, athletic build. I do not smoke or take drugs and drink only on social occassions. I always felt something was wrong, even as a teenager. I could get erections but I could not masturbate. I finally figured out how to push my buttons when I was 20. It requires an emense amount of pressure on the vein on the underside of my penis. I must be lying flat on my stomach and my legs (especially thighs) must be 100% flexed. The effort is monumental and I usually cum without ever getting fully hard. I stayed away from having any girlfriends, for fear of not performing. Every once in a while I felt normal enough to perform but the opportunity comes and goes. I reserved myself to having a lot of one night stands because I could likely perform once but being put on the spot all the time was not something I looked forward to. Soon even the odd one night stand became a problem because I couldn’t count on getting an erection (I guess the time wasn’t right). After this I began to even turn down many girls or purposely avoid being alone with them after figuring out what they wanted. A few times I took the plunge but after a few weeks, I would break it off because I just couldn’t handle the pressure to perform all the time. It is the physical problem that has spawned a phsycological performance anxiety When I was 26 I decided to get into a long term relationship with a beatiful girl. My sexual problems were apparent right from the beginning. The first time we had sex, I got hard enough for sex but couldn’t cum and felt numb. I reduced masturbating from every day to once or twice a week so that I could be ready for her at any time, but it just didn’t work out. I am very stubborn and I have a lot of pride so I refused to see a doctor and deal with my problem. Soon the lack of masturbating and sex started to greatly diminish my sex drive and after a while I didn’t even care for sex anymore. I eventually saw a doctor and got blood tests. He said my testosterone levels were fine and gave me some viagra. The viagra worked sometimes but it made me anxious and it didn’t do much for spontaneous sex. It also did not make it any easier to ejaculate. Eventually we broke up over this matter and I have been single for 2 years. I masturbate regularily and my sex drive is back up. I still have regular one night stands ut he same problem persist with the lack of sensation. Is there something I can take that makes me more sensitive? Can I take something on a daily basis that can help with getting and sustaining an erection. I’m not talking about taking something only when you plan to have sex, but taking something everyday, regardless of whether you might have sex or not, to increase libido, erections, sex drive and sensitivity.
