Go to a urologist and be completely honest with your symptoms. Tell us what he says.

[kosko]

Woooooah your 21? Okay no way in hell its a physical ailment that you need Viagra. Go the natural route and start weight training hard to spike your Testosterone. Go easy on the supplement I was in your shoes one time also, you will only need one. Yohimbe is potent, its good enough solo, you will fuck around with your arteries big time trying to combine tones of supplements. Pick 1 either Arginine or Yohimbe I don't recommend both its to strong. Remember that Viagara is just a chemical which mimics yohimbe or Arginine that would be put out in your body naturally. Your goal should just to get your dick to wake back up from its long nap. Its not dead as you think it is.

[bengalltigerr]

I made an appointment with my doctor on 16th, let's seeif he refers me to the urologist.

kosko, i thought yohimbe and arginine are supposed to be different, because they yohimbe increases sex drive, and arginine increases testosterone and blood flow.

RioNomad, I have heard a lot about Starting Strength. Ripptoe recommend 5x5 routines, but I always screw up deadlifts and barbell rows.

Most will at first. If you buy his book he breaks down the 5 main lifts and how to do them properly in great detail. He also has a forum (Google it) where people upload videos of their squats/deadlifts/etc. and he personally critiques them for you. And if that isn't enough, he has a dvd you can buy with him teaching 5 or so people proper form and how to fix common problems.

If you still need more help (highly unlikely) get 2-3 sessions from a POWERLIFTER. Find a powerlifting gym in your area and give them a call. Don't go to your standard gym. Do not hire a personal trainer (large majority don't know dick) and not a bodybuilder because a bodybuilders needs are completely different.

[Seamus]

bengal, obviously i don't know all the details, but it sounds to me like a mental thing. no harm going to the urologist of course, but i'll throw you my two cents all the same. i think you should order some viagra online, and the next time you're going for a bang pop half a tab. the people telling you to avoid pills because you might cultivate a dependency have a point, but in my opinion what's more likely to happen is that a couple of blue steel erections will get your confidence back and the problem will resolve itself naturally. i used to room with a guy who let a few poorly-timed whiskey dicks completely smash his confidence, and it really spiraled out of control. Better to get your mojo back now however possible imo. I myself always carry a pill in my wallet. I never use the damn thing, but just the knowledge that it's there if i ever need it is kind of like a mental safety net.

This shit ain't new man. Montainge wrote an essay ("On the power of imagination") about the same thing happening to a duke on his wedding night 425 years ago. The mind's a powerful thing.

[bengalltigerr]

Seamus, I will be visiting the doctor next week and if he refers me to a Urologist then so be it. As for what you said about buying viagra, that was the initial plan, but the problem is if I become dependent on Viagra at this age, I might as well have to take it for the rest of my life.

kosko is right, be very, very careful with yohimbe. It does more than increase sex drive. It increases blood pressure and heart rate also. If you take it start with the lowest possible dosage, and take it BY ITSELF first to test your reaction.

Yohimbe works very well, but I can't take it because it makes me feel weird. Too wired. Then I crash a few hours after taking it. Your body is different, but you have to test your reaction to it first.

[raliv]

Yohimbe is also used as a very effective fat burner among fitness circles. As has been said, I've heard it is very important not to take other supplements along with Yohimbe. It elevates heart rate among other cardiovascular effects. Be smart and don't go overboard.

[Caligula]

Also be wary if the doctor is too eager to prescribe Viagra or the like. I went to see my doctor once and he was drinking coffee out of a Viagra cup.

[metalhaze]

first at your age 25mg is enough, and even then take half a pill. Viagra is a strong Mofo. I recommend levitra, it's quicker. take half the pill of the smallest-dosage first to test it (you have to be turned on though for it to work) but see the urologist first. why? cause the generic stuff on the internet is not always legit, he'll give you a prescription even if it is for anxiety reasons (which I'm sure it is in your case).

This has happened to me before and I'm fit as a fiddle.
The main reason was anxiety pure and simple, usually with girls that were quite attractive, or that were quick to jump in bed with me (ONS). I had to reduce the expectation that I should be Ron jeremy in bed and slow things down, usually the problem was resolved by the second attempt (or once I got comfortable being naked in her presence).

I resolved it a couple of times by taking half a pill, worked like wonder. however, I did not want to always rely on the drug (for first time sex). so my solution was
a) not to jerk off 2-3 days before having sex...and not use porn as facilitator. (not jerking off and getting good sleep is kinda like natural viagra, hello morning wood!)
b) try to relax when I'm with her, engage more in foreplay, and put her hand on my dick and tell her verbally "make me hard" which removes the expectation that I have to be hard without any stimulation from her part and to give her a challenge (some women might even start blowing you ) and just have no expectation and be selfish about my pleasure until I bust the first nut and then I starting thinking about her pleasure ( I more or less usually nut twice when I'm with a girl).

Last but not least, try to stay lean and fit, besides Anxiety (main psychological cause of ED) the second major cause of ED is heart or circulation problems.

The third in my opinion could be desensitization in men over 40-50 due to circumcision. this can be reversed with foreskin restoration

[bengalltigerr]

metalhaze, Viagra 25mg is the half the recommended dosage, so it would be useless to take 12.5 mg dosage. As for Levitra, I don't think it's on the same level as Cialis and Viagra. I don't think I'm experiencing performance anxiety, because even 3 or 4 months ago, I was fine.

No I'm not fat all,my BMI is 22, body fat is a little high at around 18-20%.

BMI really doesn't mean dick. It's a generic one size fits all approach and is pretty fuckin useless. I am 5"9.5' and 185lbs, which gives me a BMI of 26.9. Overweight, according to the BMI. Yet I train combat sports several times per week and am in pretty decent shape. On the flip side, I would be considered "normal" weight if I weighed 127lbs lol. Sorry, but being damn near 5"10 and 127lbs is not normal. Motherfucker would need a sandwich on the double.

You might not be fat in the traditional sense, but with a nearly 20% body fat, you sound like you are one of those skinny-fat people. Working on lowering that % might not help your ED, but it would help your health overall. Not to mention, you would look a hell of a lot better naked.

I'm 5'7 and 135 lbs, dropping some weight will leave me weaker and skinnier. I want to bulk to 140 and then cut.

You're testosterone levels are low.

There are several things you can do.
Work out(unless you work out a lot your testosterone levels won't go up so much, we're talking about ripped).
Next you need to lower your anxiety(This is the biggest one).
Need to change your diet.

I was in the same spot as you, I did try viagra.
I had boners so hard that even after I blew my load I was able to go again in 5 min.

The higher your anxiety the harder it will to get an erection and keep it(even if you take viagra).
In some situations 1 viagra pill barely helped me. I never took two at the same time, not worth it just for some pussy.

[xmlenigma]

21. Dude.. Workout. Do you have a Sedentary lifestyle? Sex drive goes low if so.

[bengalltigerr]

Ever since the last 3 or 4 months, my lifestyle has been pretty sedentary. However, I walk about a mile everyday and somedays upto 6 miles.

@Wolf, I have stomach pain all the time for some odd reason, maybe it is the cause of my anxiety. So you believe that Viagra is the only way now?

[metalhaze]

so true, I forgot about low testosterone. go see your urologist and let him check your test levels

It is your anxiety that's causing the stomach pain. Go to your doctors about your stomach pain and they will not find anything and tell you it's irritable bowel syndrome.

To get better digestion and lower your anxiety start running. Run 3 miles every other day. Stomach pain and anxiety will be gone 3-4 months.

Viagra should be the last resort. Truthfully you're not very active, walking is nothing. Start off running a mile and after a couple weeks you'll be at 3 miles. Most of your problems will go away.

You're dead-on, the doctor says I have IBS & gastritis. However, I've stopped taking medicines for both as they don't seem to help me a whole lot.

I've had success with horny goat weed with maca. It increases blood flow. This can help until you get the issues sorted out.

^^This. And you should absolutely try L-Arginine too. I take L-Arg when working out because it increases the blood flow to the muscles, and since it dilates the blood vessels it gives you rock hard boners. Try it.

In addition to horney goat weed and l-arginine supplements, try Gecko Tonic. Work out the anxiety issues (if any) and you'll be golden.

If you are serious about getting rid of these kinds of issues, then you should look into buying a juicer and going on a juice fast for 7-10 days to start. So many people look at me with obese eyes as if to say "and give up my Five Guys hamburger and fries?" but the few who actually do it cure their problems and see the light. Do a juice fast -- nothing but veggies and fruits for 10 days and purge your system of all the toxins. Then, see how you feel.

They are not going to work because you don't need them. The fact that you are not active makes your testosterone low and gives you these stomach problems.

Like I said, run 3 miles every other day and after a couple of months your stomach and anxiety problems will go away.

You can go to the doctor for your boner problem but if they don't find something serious then don't take viagra.

Dude, Juices contain nothing but sugar. My diet isn't all hat bad, here's what I usually have:
grilled chicken thighs/drumsticks with pasta/rice and mixed veggies (sweetcorns,carrots,garden peas,broccolis,etc), wholemeal beads with peanut butter, skimmed milk w muesli (no added sugar), etc.

Absolutely wrong. Juice, from a juicer is made from fresh vegetables and fruits. The fruits contain natural sugar, but a proper juice fast uses mostly veggies. I'm not talking about that minute maid shit.

Purely my opinion, but if you're having quirky health issues, it doesn't hurt to go on an all veggie diet to detox from the animal products in your gut and system.

Your diet isn't bad compared to the average American, but many out there would even say that bread (wheat products) and skim milk (dairy) are not doing you any good. All subject to opinion.

[Aliblahba]

I'm with Smitty on the fast. For the last decade I've been doing The Master Cleanser. It works, or I'd have quit years ago. I'm not a wussy fufu dirt worshiping vegan either, but the fast works, and will "reset" the system. Get the book and mentally prepare for a 10 day run.

Your not getting enough fats. From your rough rundown you need more. You eat a balanced healthy diet but so do feeble beta vegetarians with caved in shoulders. Men need fats, increase your healthy fat intake via Almonds, avacados, walnuts, EV Olive oil, EV coconut oil. You need to feed your male parts to be strong and healthy.

Honestly fuck a doctor. Doctors don't know that much. They prescribe drugs and nothing more. Like the one poster said how can you take 100% word of faith from a man who gets gifts and perks to slang certain pills to people.

From what I gather you are unwilling to take the steps as a Man to rid your ailments... Which is the cause of your ailments. You are 21 and think all hope is lost because you perceive something inside of you is off. Your right something is off, but its your resistance to man up and take control of the situation, that is the issue thus - you will find it hard to solve the problem. Maybe I'm dancing in circles here but hopefully you can read between these lines and get a sense from us here that the issue is 100% internal. If you admit that you have not covered all steps of diet, fitness, sleep, etc. Then you are not trying hard enough. Trying hard will reward you with getting hard. What you think god gave us boners magically? If you don't maintain certain levels of physical and mental wellbeing you will loose it.

Why would god want a weak and docile man to go penetrate and impregnate women?

Don't take this the wrong way bud, just use at as a kick in the nuts to take charge of your situation. I was in the same boat as you and my feeble self cried for pills before taking the hard steps to get my body back in gear. I use natural supplements from time to time but I get rock hard boners now because I am the fukin Man!

It was a physical and mental problem curing one helped the other and I was good. Preventive care is real medicinal care that is more suited for humans, find the problems, try to fix it naturally!

The only time I could NOT get erections was when I was a dumb young dude and was on antidepressants (oh dear), those SSRI(?) Fuked my insides up bad, nothing could get me hard not even porn, or my gf (I got off them pills quick, obviously). It was fuking terrible contrasting that to my anxiety stages they felt like night and day. There was a cloudyness in my head during my anxiety faze versus with the pills my head was clear but I was physically incapable of an erection or any sensation to my jr. What your describing sounds 100% like anxiety, you would be scared shitless if you felt the dead feeling of a penis I felt on those shitty mood pills, I could of cut my dick off and not felt a thing!

Just a story to end off my post but go hard man the power is in you (not a pill) to change.

[bengalltigerr]

Aliblahba, I fasted a couple of months ago and it only worsened my stomach pain, and I felt nauseous.

kosko, I always have EV olive oil with grilled chicken,ground beef, and I also have peanuts and almonds once in a while, so I don't think I'm not consuming enough fat.What makes you think I'm unwilling to get rid of my ailments? Dude I take 12 pills everyday, of which 9 are are prescribed, and 3 are vitamins. I also go to the gym 5 days a week and do high intensity exercises.
