Deflated Glans and Firm Flaccid: Pelvic Floor Dysfunction

The urologists performed a doppler + a “cavernsography”, or something along those lines. Both were performed by the books - i.e no special attention was given to the vein which I’d pointed out & said that I believed was leaking (superficial dorsal vein)

The interventional radiologist performed a procedure wherein I was given an artificial erection, and then had dye injected directly into the superficial dorsal vein, to see if it leaked out - it did.

Possibly, but I don’t think I have any underlying problems. I believe the leak was caused by rough masturbation when I was a child. It was just the one vein which was leaking, and from a one off injury. At most maybe my penis is predisposed to injure easily, but personally I don’t think this is something which needs treatment - I just avoid anything which could cause damage. Something like clamping for example seems crazy to me.

I felt it was quite bad. I couldn’t get an erection without pressing down on the leaking vein. If I did get an erection, as soon as I lifted my finger the glans would shrink down. Imagine if you blow up a balloon, & then pinch the end. Then loosen the pinch so the air can come out, and watch it shrink down. That’s what my glans would do before my eyes when I let go of the vein - go from fullish and purple, to small and grey, and the erection would lose its power in a matter of seconds.

Today my glans still become shinier when erect if I kegel etc, but on the whole they at least remain full & sensitive.

I only ever tried P.E half halfheartedly to try & rectify the soft glans and erection problems I was having early on. I haven’t PE’d in years, but still kegel + use supplementation etc.

I’ll PM you the name of the doctor.

Could you send it to me also? He was in Australia right?

I just wanted to add my experience to this thread. Currently, my CS does not inflate properly and the more I have analyzed my condition I have found out that my penis glans will not fill if I am sitting or lying down. This is a recent change as before I did have glans expansion in these positions. However, if I stand or lay on my side my penis glans will fill out. It seems for me that I have some kind of nerve injury to the penis that has caused my whole pelvic region and penis to tense up. Unfortunately for me, I can irritate these nerves just by touching my penis. I believe that this condition was originally caused by me wearing a condom a few nights when I went to sleep. The reason why I did this was to avoid having my meatus rub up against my underwear as for some reason I have had meatal pain since February. However, I believe by doing this it was essentially the same as a clamping exercise.

I also have the “disconnect” feeling from my bc muscle and a very hard shaft when erect. I have a bad case of the firm flaccid penis and have lost a ton of sensation to the penis as well. Also, it feels like I have stretched by ligaments at the base of my penis.

I believe in my case that the remedy will be to rest my penis for a long time and try to relax my pelvic muscles. I think some of us might be suffering from chronic prostatitis or chronic pelvic pain syndrome. So it might be beneficial for us to try some stretching exercises to see if it will help. I know that Muse is not a cure for this condition, but I am really curious if anybody is willing to try this med as I just want to see if this drug will actually work in filling up the CS and glans for people afflicted with this condition. I will eventually try Muse myself when my penis is healthy, but due to the extreme sensitive nature of my penis I can barely touch my penis now. It just would be nice to know that there is a remedy to this problem besides surgery.

Also, I would also like to have the doctor’s name in a PM as well.

Haven’t heard from Yataghan yet -Biff your case sounds pretty bad. For the time being you might want to think about starting some light pumping, it seems to be very helpful in alleviating the symptoms caused by this problem.

I’m curious on who this Dr. is…. Does anybody know yet?

Well it seems I have some form of leak. It’s not medically diagnosed but something I experienced and experimented with this morning.

This morning I decided to give my fleshlight a workout. In the past I used it a few times but because I suffer from retarded ejaculation I would end up using it for hours at a time, the only reason I would stop is because of frustration and fatigue.

Anyway, before using it my glans and shaft were rock hard (EQ of 8 or 9) but as soon as I entered the fleshlight I could actually feel blood being forced out of my glans and eventually out of my penis. Pull out of the fleshlight and suddenly I have a semi erect penis with what could only be described as a flaccid glans.

The CC’s were pretty hard from the base to around halfway up but closer to the end it was soft and spongey and the glans was not inflated one bit. I kept using the fleshligh for around 20 minutes and I could feel with every stroke my penis becoming less and less erect. (This is one reason why I get frustrated.)

This got me wondering if I do have a leak as I’ve always seen guys in porn like Nacho Vidal, Shane Diesel, Lex Steele and other massive guys fucking tight pussies and when they pull out their glans are still inflated and shiny.

I don’t have this. As soon as I pull out my glans has deflated back to flaccid size and slowly my erection was subsiding. This has also happened during sex in the past and it’s fuckign annoying because it means I have to adjust my condom and edge back to 100%.

I decided to try using the fleshlight while clamped (I have the clamp on just tight enough to allow increased expansion) and after a dozen strokes I pulled out and I was still just as erect as before entry. So I kept going and the feeling was so much better, that much better in fact that I came after about 5 minutes.

I’m thinking my retarded ejaculation is a result of having a deflated glans and that is a result of a leak or possibly faulty valves (to restrict out flow). I have no problem getting an erection, I don’t know about my ability to sustain it but I would guess it’s pretty poor compared to most but it’s all over as soon as any sort of pressure is applied to it.

I’ve mentioned before that pumping has helped with my deflated glans, which it has, it makes more full and shiny but that’s useless if I can’t use my penis properly.

I just wish I wasn’t broke right now or I would go see a doctor and urologist right away and get treatment ASAP.

After reading some of http://www.heal thboards.com/bo … ad.php?t=713411 there’s a suggestion in there to wear a cock ring and use PDE5 inhibitors for 6 months to retrain the valves in the penis.

This suggestion was for a guy who has complete ED at 22 years of age (can’t even get an erection with Viagra or Cialis) so I don’t think I would need the drugs.

I’m going to give the cock rings a try every time I have sex, edge, masturbate to see if i can retrain some dysfunctional valves.

You could have just had a poorer than usual erection/not been that aroused. If I’ve got a semi and enter the fleshlight, especially if it isn’t lubed, the pressure can make my glans shrink a bit.

But, if I’m really horny and into it, the glans are far more likely to remain shiny and 110% full

I doubt you’ll be able to ‘re-train’ your ‘valves’. Though I suppose it’s [i]possible[i/].

I’ve been having sex more regularly and only now do I really see the extent of my symptoms. They are as you describe TS. I find I can get an erection relatively easily, even just making out with a girl, but even going from making or giving her oral or vice versa to me putting it in, by the time I get there I’m already back to about 70% and fading fast. Also I’ve found that almost everytime I try to change positions I lose too much erection and have to do more foreplay, which is embarrassing and fucking annoying as FUCK. It completely takes the spontaneity out of sex.

And even to get to this state, I have to make sure I’m horny as fuck AND take some horny goat weed (which I carry around in some caps I packed). I find if I get inside her quick enough, with glans still fully inflated, I can actually come within about 3 minutes, because I’m so horny, so I pull out for a second and edge like crazy, the glans go down, then I re-insert and can go for ages (with deflated glans) since the stimulation is so much less intense I don’t come for a long time (impressive to her but for me it means I’m not enjoying myself half as much as I should) and, as I said, when I go to change positions by the time I get there I’m often to soft to continue.

It’s much worse than I realised while I was just masturbating, where I have constant stimulation from my well trained hand (rather than the somewhat more erratic stimulation I get from her) so I can masturbate for a session and almost not notice the problem (since I have such great porn :D ).

I’m going to try using some yohimbe and some tribulus terrestris, and possibly some red ginseng, if I can find it, to see if they work more effectively. Also I’m thinking of getting a cock ring, as I’ve read this is definitely a workable (temporary) solution. But I spoke to the girl I’m seeing at the moment and she says it would be weird. And it’d be even more weird to whip it out for a girl on a one-night-stand type scenario. So that concerns me.

I’m going to talk to my awesome doctor about it next week for the first time. TS it sucks that you have to pay to see a doctor. Again I am stunned at the expense of your country’s Health system. Bulk billing in Australia means I pay Zero for extended consults or even office procedures or minor surgeries/, without even having private insurance.

I live in Australia and unfortunately specialists like urologists and dermatologists don’t bulk bill. The medicare rebate does give some return but it’s still a massive expense.

The last dermatologist appointment I had left me about $200 out of pocket after the rebate.

Hmm how silly of me I thought since your location is the centre of the earth you must be American :p

Are you sure though? Perhaps if you get a referal from a GP? My GP refered me to a neurologist and I had a few consults with him and even a diagnostic test - never paid a cent. I did have to wait several months to see him but after the first time I could make appointments within 2 weeks to see him again. I just assume you could do the same with a uro or radiologist.

Read this guys and tell me what you think

May Be Answers. Do you have Pre cum

They may have changed it since I last saw a Urologist (GP refferal for my Vericoceles) and there was no bulk billing for that. Although that was about 8 years ago.

I’ve been thinking about my problem for a while now and I think it is a result of the way my body is used to ejaculating. When I want/need to ejaculate I have to perform a strong kegel and I’ll hold it until I cum. Thing is when kegelling I’m forcing more blood into my penis than what is normal so the valves/veins/arteries/(whatever) have to open up more to let out the increase in blood flow. When I’m not kegelling these valves/veins/arteries/(whatever) are kind of stuck open/dilated.

I’ve been doing this (kegelling) for about 11-12 years now so I think I can fix my problem. I posted somewhere here that I had a break for around 2.5 weeks during christmas time and there was no masturbation, no edging, no sex, no kegelling, no sexual stimulation whatsoever and when I finally rubbed one out I was as hard as a rock (glans included) and I didn’t have to use my usual death grip to come to orgasm, the grip was so light I was hardly touching myself.

I’m thinking Kegels are giving me this problem. I’m hoping if I take a break from kegelling, edging and masturbation for long enough I can get things fixed.

One reason I think it’s kegels is when I have a rock hard erection and kegel my erection immediately starts to subside. If I don’t kegel the erection stays. This is why I think kegels are my problem. The valves/veins/arteries/(whatever) have been so overworked they haven’t had a chance to get back to normal and when they finally begin coming good again I go on a massive masturbation/kegel spree. My dick is trained to ejaculate when I kegel and then after that it begins to relax and go back to being flaccid (even if I haven’t ejaculated). I think I’ve (unknowingly) physically trained myself to be this way.

Guess I’m going to have to take a break for a while.

I have some citrulline malate and beta alanine arriving in a few days so that might help a bit as well.

I was interested until I realised the author was trying to offload penis pills.

I sincerly doubt kegels are your problem TS, but at this moment I can’t be bothered explaining myself. I think if you stop your kegel routine you’ll find that your overall erections will suffer rather than benefit.

If I don’t masturbate/have sex/edge/etc for a week then I’ll also be hard as a rock, but that’s just because you get more horny.
