having problems keeping the unit up, especially when the condom is put on.  Not on meds and in my mid 50's.   is this common or do I need take something?

Do you have any prostrate problems?

Yes and yes.

I'm mid 50s and have had some problems with condom use from time to time.  Guessing you've had years of no condom sex and your not used to them.  Try a different condom, looser fitting and see if that helps.  Use the condom first and save the BBBJ ect for the followup or second performance.

prostrate  is fine

No pun intended with my username... Waking up at least 5 out of 7 mornings with a "pup tent"  is normal, if not u may want to try some assistance with meds. Alcohol does not help during fun time and affects us guys more as we mature. Herbs, vitamins, minerals,  do help a little but it takes a month or so of taking herbs for your body to start to utilize the effects of the herbs(Gingko, Ginseng, Yohimbe, Epimedium, Zinc, Folic Acid, E, L- Arginine. There are also a couple exercises you can do to strengthen your pup tent.......But the best remedy of all is to find a hot female with a bangin bod!!!!

Best advice go see a Doctor..

Are you on any meds?  You answered no, but these can be the biggest cause.

Do you smoke?  Over time it destroys the microcirculation in the corpus cavernosum necessary to maintain an erection at your age.

Do you consume caffeine within 4 hours of your appt?  It excites the 'fight or flight' responses and inhibits the 'feed or breed' ones.  Have a beer, not a Coke.

Lastly, have you been checked for benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH)?  I'll bet you don't take Saw Palmetto either.

And while you are at your doctors office ask him to give you a prescription for some Vitamin V.

Seems like the more you think about your condition the worse it seems especially with a condom, but yes, see your doctor. Our minds can be a good friend,but also a problem maker.

Very common in your age group.  Best to go see a urologist.  Have your T-level checked (its not uncommon for low testosterone to creep up on you as you get older and can explain a lower libido as well as low stamina.  Otherwise, try viagra or cialis.  Viagra has only a 4-hour window of effectiveness while cialis can last up to 36 hrs.

This is such a touchy subject for the gentlemen.
Maybe I can help with some advice.
Ive had some experience in this department.

try to masturbate using condoms on, get familiarized with the different feeling it gives you, then as your getting used to it, it wont be such a bother to you when you NEED to use them
Good Luck!!

Yes It is a "VERY" "TOUCHY" subject for us!  I agree with the addition of Herbs & Vitamins as an added help. As far as caffeine & smoking, I have been told they both don't help the situation at all, but I am right around the 50 mark and have smoked 2 packs a day for abt 15 years and average abt 30 cups of coffee daily(I also have been working 4-5days a week for 6 years)and with the herbs I have very little problem with junior. The only time I have a problem with junior is when I have alot of stressful things on my mind.

All great advice. But if you cover all the medical stuff and everything checks out, I suggest the different wrappers and different women.

I have had women talk it down for me I enjoy a good visit but when we are getting into the act is not the time to bring up the problems the kid is having in school, etc. Upselling really drags me down as well.

The stress issue is also a big deal. I can be all stressed out and wank into a room with the right lady and it all melts away.... Others can push it through the roof.  

It takes the right personality fit as well as the hot bod. I still think the sexiest part of a woman is her personality.

Tell us what type you like and your budget and I am sure you will get lots of advice on the right ladies.

I can think of 5 or 10 right of the bat.

PM if you wish

OK, how 'bout the prostate?

See a Urologist. They have some great answers to your problem.

Forget the herbs and such. See a urologist.

consult your doctor. If you smoke, quit. Caffiene and alcohol both have adverse affects on your ability to get and maintain and erection. Yes, there are some herbs that can help, but just because they are natural doesn't necessarily mean that they are safe. The one to steer clear of is Yohimbe. It has been linked to kidney and liver problems, and is banned in some countries with less strict laws than ours. Your best bet is regular exercise and a good diet. Improving your overall blood circulation will contribute to sending the blood to the proper location. There are also herbs that will help with this, such as Saw Palmetto.

See your doc. and get a prescription for Muse. After you take it, you will be able to drive carpet tacks with your unit

Lots of good advice here.In my case eliminating 25 extra pounds through  better diet and daily exercise worked wonders.I also take vitamins and have worked to relieve stress in my life.

Funny,but just this last Saturday I was with my current ATF.I had had a hectic week and was looking forward to a "stress relief" session that only she seems to be able to supply.The usual oral administrations didn't seem to be doing the trick however.She stopped,looked up at me and jokingly said with a giggle "he is totally lifeless today".I laughed,and just that seemed to undo the last bit of stress and pressure I had put on myself.The Big Guy responded well to her further oral attentions,and performed magnificantly throughout a long bout of missionary.

A lot of times its mind over matter,along with the help a of a sexy willing partner!

Are you talking about Mu Se the supplemental Vit E & selenium?

Thanks for all the info!!!
