So for a lot of reasons I would rather not get into, my wife and I have not had sex in years.  During this time, I will occasionally see a lady when I am on travel - however, I travel less and less frequently, and in the past few visits, I have noticed that I am having troubles getting and staying aroused.  I have been reading, and because I basically have no sex regularly, this may be contributing factor - or, it could be medical.  I am sure that I need to speak to my doctor about this, but was wondering if viagra or similar medications would help if it is not a medical problem.  Could lack of use really be the problem?   I am not sure whether I should be concerned or not.  Even if I got some Viagra, I would most likely only use it three to four times a year when I have time to play.

Doctors are really considerate about ED medication. I first asked about it when I started to need a BJ to get fully erect. When I was younger I would be ready even at times I was in a meeting at work lol. Those days have passed. I need help to get there. When I first brought it up that I wasn't in my twenties anymore, my Dr gave me a bunch of free samples he had. It was like asking for water. You do want to try them. Viagra game me an elevated heart rate and a weird lower back pain. Cealis gave me no side effects at all and a longer window that it would work.  

so better if yout visit the doctor to have a general examination and cheek  and rule out physical problems, even before taking viagra since that medication was originally for cardiac issues, can cause arrhythmia.

Take one on a trial run...Practice makes Purrfect..  " At 1st if you don't succeed, try try again !!   Hugs

Your own situation.  Married guys typically will start questioning whether they might have ED at about 40, for single guys, its about 70.  

Of course you are  LOL

use your immense powers to figure out if CDL's stats are bogus or not, and present us with incontrovertible evidence. I'm beginning to wonder if you really were revived.  This is very disappointing.

To prove that CDL is phull of shit?

It's the power of POO.  Isn't Doc Who into brown showers? That's the rumor anyway.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I thought everyone with an IQ iver 60 would know it's a joke.  I hate the thought of dumbing things down for the dim witted, but may have to consider it. Lol

Is there any medication you take that could be effecting junior at all. There are a number of medications that have side effects, which could be causing your trouble. You do not have anything to worry about when you go to your doctor. I have a friend of mine not saying your situations are similar. When he went to his doctor I just advised him to be open and honest about it. Once after his doctors appointment was done he called me. The first thing he said was the doctor was really laid back about and had no issue discussing things with him. He got some sample to try out. The best were Viagra and Cialis after trying them out. I have heard on the boards as well if one has been using these drugs, they have went to there doctor, and asked for a prescription of sildenafil citrate instead. This is the active ingredient in these drugs, have heard it works just as fine, and it will make things cheaper if one chooses. Anyway go to your doctor you have nothing to worry about.

Because you felt that somehow someone would recognize your fake ownership of all those fake companies you didn't really own?  Or that your kids might discover that you are phull of crap?  And maybe dear old dad shit himself at the nursing home?

You must not have much going on in  RL, so you immerse yourself in the fantasy of Dr. Who.  Had tea with the Queen yet?  I meant the Queen of England, not a guy in drag.  

Didn't mean to post just "lol"
Hit wrong button
Think my IQ fell below 60 for a sec
Man, seems like a lot of childish bickering in this community
Oh well, such is life I guess
I turn 41 this year and have been having some Ed problems
Could be due to any number of issues
My doc was very cool about it
Actually persuaded me to try to fix it with a natural approach
More exercise, healthy foods, less alcohol, less stress, "get a divorce"
Oh, wait, did I say that out loud? Shit!
Anyhoo, Good luck to you in your quest to wake the sleeping giant!

The longer you can avoid prescription meds for anything by using other means, the better off you'll be in the long run.

I`m 72 and  Sildenafil is a life saver for me in the hobby. Been hobbying for a year with 20 trysts under my belt. I have experimented with dosage (from 20 mg to 80 mg) since day one and have concluded that 100 mg will be just right and will do that next tryst for sure. My Dr. says 100 mg is absolutely the ceiling!! Timing is important when taking this stuff and I`ve found that for a 90 min date I drop them 1/2 hr before main event on an empty stomach. If you`re on BP meds, skip that on tryst day. Eat as soon after sex as you can as this will greatly diminish any side effects. (very light headache)
Offer to take your girl to dinner post session OTC, lol.

V or similar drugs are nowdays recreational.  You don't have to take the whole pill.  It depends upon your need for it.  Some guys it doesn't even help.  But other guys just need a little bit to bring them up to their old firmness and staying power.  

They both complain that he is suffering from ED. The doctor asks the man to step outside, so he leaves.  

If you still wake up with a boner sometimes, then you don't have true ED, and most likely it's in your mind.
From my experience, mood is the most important. There was a time I couldn't be aroused even by porn. Before this, I had abstained from watching porn for several months because I was busy with other things. It really felt like a "lose it if you don't use it" situation with the lack of sexual stimulation. (But overstimulation is equally bad)
Eventually I got my arousal and erections back as I patiently meditated to re-pervert my mind.

The last time you got into it with the good doctor, your performance was downright pathetic. I honestly felt so bad for you that I couldn't even bring myself to "pile on" that day. You seem to be back to your old self again, or maybe it's Doc who's game is weak today. lol

I should not even have been on the board a day before going overseas for two weeks.  Totally distracted.  Won't happen again.

Normally I LIKE to kick a man when he is down, but you were beyond pathetic that day, almost bad enough for a "mercy killing" but not quite. lol

Its natural that by the 70's there are likely to be various meds that can make your quality of life better.  There some guys that start using sildenafil in their 40's.  Its hard to say whether it will still be effective when they are in their 70's or whether their bodies will have built up a resistance to it after 30 years of use.  I think the younger guys have more options to treat it other ways that have to do with lifestyle choices rather than meds at such an early age.  I feel bad sometimes when I see guys my own age that are 300 pounds and riding around in scooters, but its most often a result of the choices they made for the previous 10-20 years.  If you stay healthy and fit, you can have  good quality of life right up until your last breath.  Its better to go out with your boots on than laying in a hospital in your own piss.  

I do have to agree about the overall health and fitness of some of the younger guys here. Some of the guys around forty sound 60 and a LOT of the guys at 60 sound and act like they are 80.  

if wearing boots would facilitate leaving this world as I'm filling a condom inside a provider, I would consider doing it, but I'm not "that age" yet.  

I know you are a freak, but just because "plenty of girls" do it, I don't see you following their lead. and I most definitely don't see myself doing so.

I had a T-shirt that said "Morning Wood Lumber Company."   I knew which girls to talk to by whether they smiled or not when they read my shirt.  If they were clueless, I just kept walking.  If they smiled, I would stop and ask them why they were smiling at me.  Things sometimes progressed from there.  

Get a full checkup and check your testosterone levels. For me on a simple annual checkup, it turned out that I was producing very low levels. I now take 2 packets of Androgel daily and my numbers are normal again.

Get it checked out. True ED can be a sign of bigger problems, like congestive heart failure or other cardiovascular afflictions. That said, you might try to masturbate at least once a week (with a light touch) just to keep sensual half alive.
