I didn’t read the entire thread but I think I’ve got the jest of it though.
In the couple of years that I’ve been a member here I’ve experienced the best , and unfortunately some of the worst, that PE has to offer. I think I’ve gained a total of about 2 inches and girth is a good thing now too. She loves her pony rides - lol.
But there were some anxious moments too. Meaning there were some times I thought I may have permanently damaged things…. err, my dick that is.
ALL of which have been explained, discussed or at least mentioned by others on this site.
And as a result of those threads and discussions I’ve formulated my own conclusions and gone on.
The negative aspects and possibilities that I have experienced are as follows:
1. First and foremost, YES I have experienced temporary impotence due to PE. I chalk that up to over doing it.
Nothing else. Usually it was later that night after a strenuous session earlier in the day. A couple of times it may have lasted into a second day. Viagra always help though. I found that other things helped also. Lysine, Arginine, Maca, Goatweed, Ibprofin, Orange Juice, Celery, hell just about anything gives me a hard on. So I was able to actually perform, even if I was a lame fuck even to myself. I agree it can play tricks with your head though.
What started off as a physical condition can quickly become a psychological one.
2. Those damn little red spots. I never knew what they were. I used to get them just from squeezing one out.
I head trip on those for years. I was convinced I must have some type of STD for which there was no cure and resolved to never tell a soul, even if it didn’t have any real logic to it. THEN, I found this place and it was one of the first threads I stumbled onto. Oh’ happy days, I was cured in a single thread. God bless Al Gore and the internet.
Some one in a recent thread was discussing how it seemed like they come on more frequently now since starting PE. I agree, at least for me too. My only hypothesis on this one is that for some of us, especially pumpers and clampers, is that we are some how increasing the number of tiny micro blood vessels and or causing those vessels to migrate closer to the surface of the skin. That’s my theory anyways. Again it’s hypothesized that micro blood vessels busting under stress may be the cause of the red dot, or skin tearing. Who cares, I’m normal in this respect at any rate.
I’ve had some bad ex-perinces with those little red dots. Once it even looked like I beat it against cheese grater. I talked about how neosporin ointment was a godsend for the red dots AND fluid build ups in another thread. Then the talk turned to PE induced herpes outbreaks, which I was mistaken for having by someone who can’t follow a thread, and I bailed. Neosporin ointment isn’t going to stop a herpes outbreak in under 4 hours.
3. The fluid buildup. God I hate this one. It can sting bad too. I got the harder fluid nodules to go with it also.
Was a real problem for awhile. Neosporin helped. So did learning how to pump (properly) at a lower hg.
I never get it anymore, but I’ll only water pump if I pump.
4. The thombrosed vein. OUCH! Got in conjunction with the nodules and the cheese grater rash. Or at least in the same time period. Again, neosporin ointment had the rash gone in hours, the nodules a little while later, and the cord like thrombrose was gone in about 24 hours I think. There was a lengthy thread about this.
5. I heard/felt a loud pop like noise from deep inside my right side the second or third time I tried clamping.
And it felt like it does when you get smacked in the balls. A little scary at first. But everything seemed okay.
No pain anywhere after the initial jab. What the hell was it? Something internal letting go? What? A self induced hernia? Not likely. To much pressure causing a back fire? I never got an answer on this one except that someone did mentioned that it happened to them also. I’m not really that big of a fan of clamping anyways. It seemed to be a consistent cause of ED for me. Bummer though, because I really would like to add some aggressive girth.
6. This is the really scary one. I was reading that thread where the guy was talking about how his dick got hard like and shriveled up real bad. Then it happened to me too. The guy in that thread got beat up real bad for being neurotic drama queen and eventually got the boot, so I didn’t bother commenting then about it happening to me.
Besides, I was really scared now.
My dick shriveled up to about 2 inches and had a weird firmness to it also. Exactly like the guy in the thread had explained. There were no solutions in that thread though. My dick would not respond to any attempt to get it hard either. Thankfully it did respond to viagra after about 3 days and I was on to the cure once again and then I had all but forgot about it when …
About a year later I was listening to Dr Drew one night in the car and I think I got my answer to what it was.
Some guy had called in explaining how he had broke his dick while having sex. His description of what happened to his dick as a result was pretty damn close. Dr Drew went on to explain how you can actually do what amounts to a sprained dick. He described the shrinking and firming of the dick as a definite indication that someone has torn or ruptured the tunica. (I think I have the correct part). Dr Drew went on to explain in detail the how and why of the shrinkage and firming, etc., and it all sounded pretty dam plausible to me. The caller kept responding, yea that’s what my doctor told me. I was driving along thinking, damn me too!
The cure? Time or sometimes surgery. It was an interesting discussion just for the info. I always though the original poster of that thread got beat up on pretty hard. He was being a pansy and unreceptive to any of the well intentioned advice being offered if I recall correctly. So things got hostile and he got banned.
Usually the way it goes though. But I still felt some empathy for him. I didn’t seem like anyone was taking him seriously at the time. Hell my lasted less than a week, he was complaining it had been a year and a half I think.
Let me tell you when your dick resembles a cold 3 day old elbow noodle that fell out of the fridge and got left on the floor, your ass will be freaking out big time too. I know, I experienced it.
So back to the original topic of this thread. Can PE be the cause ED sometimes?
Well my experiences (and these aren’t all of them) have taught me that the answer is HELL YES it can.
For a zillion different reason. ALL of which I thought had already been beaten to death around here in the past.
So if and when it happens to you, DO NOT FREAK OUT on yourself AND everyone around here.
It’s like I tell my boy; Kid you better stop, take a deep breath, and rethink that attitude, ‘cause it ain’t doing you no good right now. He just grunts at me. Knowledge is your friend, so are some of the people around here. Search the threads, consult your doctor.All we can do is make suggestions, share are own experiences, and offer support.
Take what you THINK applies at the moment and file the rest should something become relevant in the future.
I don’t have all the answers and I’m pretty sure you don’t either. But I do know I have a head full of currently useless information and facts that I’ve collected over the years. Never know when something in there is going to be the missing piece that completes the jigsaw puzzle. Besides it takes up less room than beer cans or auto parts.
Hmm… , Viagra. it’s kind of like the choke on a motor. It’ll help get you started until you can run on your own.
