Jelqing has destroyed my life A warning.

Thanks for your help.

Yes you should. And maybe change urologist.

Have you tried taking erection enhancer drugs? Can you achieve an erection with those?

Also, this numbness has reduced a bit over the course of times?

Anti depressants can kill erections, also. You should take only if your Doctor really think they are indispensable.

See the urologist again or a general doc and look at other causes — have him do a blood work, hormone, thyroid, etc. Best of luck with it. I think there is something going on with you, but it is probably unrelated to doing a few jelqs while watching tv. Any other changes to energy level, overall health, mood, etc? Run those things past the doctor. And best of luck.

Thanks for taking the time to answer Marinera.

I can achieve an erection if I concentrate but the blood “drains” very quickly from my penis when I stop thinking erotic thoughts. It can go from hard to completely flaccid in literally 30secs (I could hold an erection for as long as I wanted prior to this) which leads me to think this is Venous Leak.

No the numbness hasn’t reduced.

I’ve only been taking the Anti-Depressants for a week so that’s not part of the problem.

Can’t believe this has happened after around 20 mild jelqs. :( I still haven’t really come to terms with it which is why I’m on the anti-depressants.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, Marinera, thank you.

I’m sorry willy, I just don’t buy it. The human body is one tough mother fucker and takes quite a beating and just bounces right back. Unless you were jelqing with coarse sand paper, what you describe as your first attempt at jelqing just couldn’t have caused all of this irreversible damage. We just aren’t that feebly constructed.

Thanks for that sta. Taking the time to offer that advice means a lot.

I would take some hope from your suggestions if only the problem with my penis hadn’t happened immediately after doing these few Jelqs. :(

It looks like I’ve just been massively unlucky which is difficult to take.

That would be my belief aswell, mate. Thanks for replying.

We heal and regenerate, right? That’s what I thought. That’s what I think I should say (trying to stay positive). I even talked about it with my Dad (he’s the only one I could go to and is luckily quite open about these types of things) and he said “I can’t believe doing that has messed up your penis that badly”. When I saw the urologist I showed him the “jelqing” motion I did without explaining I was PE’ing and he also couldn’t understand how that could’ve damaged me!

But I can only tell you the facts. Facts that have destroyed my life for the past year. All I did was lubricate my penis, got it 1/2-2/3 erect and mildy jelqed one way 20 or so times stopping before I hit the gland.

And my cock hasn’t been the same since. About 80% loss of sensation on the shaft (including, oddly, my scrotum) and ED (which I have never had before in my life).

Well I feel for you man. There are freak occurrences in life sometimes - it just sucks it had to happen with your penis. Have you tried ED drugs?

Like I say, I haven’t really come to terms with the whole thing yet so don’t really want to explore things like that yet. A year ago I could get hard as a rock with little stimulation so the thought of having to rely on Viagra for the rest of my life is tough to take. :(

Thanks for the advice, Esc.

Excuse me for saying so, but this sounds like anti-pe propaganda. Nevertheless, have you tried supplements, have you changed urologists, acupuncture works well, what about blood work and testosterone levels and getting hormones checked. Have you exhausts all of your options yet?

Also have you considered that it may be the anti-depressants (a week is long enough) and stress causing or greatly contributing to your troubles? Do you suspect nerve damage? 20 jelqs seems rather light, especially when you have so many members who do much more than that. Were you erect while jelqing? Is there anyway you can give more details, for example do you have a history of prostate cancer, or anything like that, were they dry jelqs or wet jelqs? I don’t want to accuse you of anything, but 11 months and no progress at all? I’d be going crazy and trying everything.

Willy, it seems people are refusing to give you the benefit of the doubt here, but because I believe karmas consequences for being a dick to you are way worse if I am wrong than just accepting your story as true, and because I just feel empathy, I would suggest that you get a couple different opinions from several urologists. From what I know about venous leakage it almost completely prevents erections. You say you can get one for 30 seconds which suggests that this may be in a part a psychological issue. I remember, there was one week I measured my penis and got so depressed that I could not get an erection at all. Is it possible that you damaged your penis and had trouble getting an erection early on so you thought that you were permanently scarred and the feeling perpetuated. Are you the neurotic type? This in conjunction with anti-depressents could be the big problem. Also about the excess vein, this is a bi-product of PE, I got lots of new veins when I began, so unless it was real freaky looking I would worry about it.

However the Main Point is: Get a few more opinions from urologists.

Zerone, can I just put your mind at rest and say this is categorically not anti-pe propoganda, not intentionally anyway. I didn’t even know about PE prior to this and can only speak from my own awful experience just like successful PE’ers will speak from theirs.

The problems were there in all their glory prior to taking the anti-depressants so I can’t really see them as a cause.
I suspect nerve damage AND venous leakage (what else can explain my numbness, erection problems and smaller flaccid penis?) which terrifies and bewilders me at the same time!
I was 2/3 erect when I jelqed, certainly not fully erect.
I did wet jelqs with Durex lubricant.

I’ve left it 11 months because I took advice from people on here who said urologists wouldn’t be able to tell me anything and rest and heatpacks was the best I could do. I was also too embarassed to talk about it. And believe me, I am going “crazy”.

Thanks for your concern, Zerone, it helps.

Can I ask how did you feel when you did those 20 jelqs?

Did you feel scared/cautious? Did you feel like you were doing something dangerous?

Thank you UT.

I’m already quite emotional and teary discussing this and your first line means a lot.

I’m thinking my next move will be to see another urologist and demand a Doppler study and a Penile Duplex Ultrasound?

Oh and another of my symptoms is, I’ve also noticed after urinating I am “wetting” myself a bit. Most blokes let out a few drops of urine on their underwear after urinating right? But this has gotten worse for me since this injury. It’s far more than a few drops now, I am considerably wet after urinating. This may point toward prostate problems, right?
