You will feel better. Not to mention the fact of physical and mental addiction. And ThunderSS is right about the circulation of blood to the brain.http://www.netd octor.co.uk/hea … smokehealth.htm
Smoking and impotence
For men in their 30s and 40s, smoking increases the risk of erectile dysfunction (ED) by about 50 per cent.
Did you know?
The British Medical Association estimates that up to 120,000 men have ED because of smoking.
Erection can’t occur unless blood can flow freely into the penis, so these blood vessels have to be in good condition.
Smoking can damage the blood vessels and cause them to degenerate: nicotine narrows the arteries that lead to the penis, reducing blood flow and the pressure of blood in the penis.
This narrowing effect increases over time, so if you haven’t got problems now, things could change later.
Erection problems in smokers may be an early warning signal that cigarettes are already damaging other areas of the body - such as the blood vessels that supply the heart.
How smoking destroys blood circulation
Thal: I suppose most of this post could be true. I know about how bad smoking can be for you health, and I am sure every other smoker does. Us smokers arn’t so ignorant as to not know some of these facts, I figure smokers are either a) wanting to give up but looking for the right motivation, or b) comfortable with the fact they smoke and not really too concerned with kicking the habit.
Your looking at the smoking issue from a non-smokers point of view, and being a non-smoker, you can dislike, or even HATE cigarettes. You recycle information you read on the web and in books, or maybe have even heard. Don’t get me wrong Thal, I’m not having a go at you- but just because the Internet, or a book says something, doesn’t mean it’s the law of the land and things will always work that way for everyone.
You are against cigarettes- nothing wrong with that, however this is going to skew your perception of them. Someone like you would only look at all these nice facts and information sheets and ASSUME that because smoking is known to affect blood flow, then it MUST effect people like the facts say!
As I have said before, people respond differently to different things. Two of my mates done steroids; One just got fatter, but broke out with heaps and heaps of pimples, the other got allot bigger (muscle) and even lost a bit of fat, and also, no pimples! AHH what is this meaning? Could it mean that their bodies reacted differently to a foreign chemical? Yes? Precisely.
While your anti-smoking post is fully intended for harmless purposes, your view makes the person who does smoke and PE, second guess themselves and perhaps "zap" a little confidence away. You need the facts that have been applied to real-life, and they are that gains ARE obtainable, smoking or not.

I can still get two and sometimes three orgasms in there before it goes too limp to play with, but still I can see a noticeable decline. Depressing really, because everyone I know smokes - it’s gonna be tough.
Beasty One: When did you begin smoking? Was it before or after you began PE? Could it at all be possible that the lower erection levels could be a result of the PE itself?
I have been smoking for about 4 years or so now, and NEVER had any erection problems, but sometimes, like some other members here, after beginning PE my erection levels are not as rock hard, and I think this has something to do with the stress we put on the cocks from PE, and the cock needing just a little more recovery time.
Anyway isn’t this hole circulation point invalid anyway? Alright, even if smoking ceases every drop of blood in your body from flowing, Jelqing is the process of MANUALLY pumping blood into your dick. Smoking or not, you are controlling the flow down the shaft to the head. Bah, I’m over this, gonna have a few pipes.
