Question
At 27 I find it difficult to believe that I am suffering from ED (impotence).I had a short term encounter with a girl who was leaving last year. I tried to have sex with her three times and I could not get a full erection. It was not a big surprise as I had had a similar problem while masturbating and I really did not care for the short relationship. I did not think that it was psychological
I took action and went to see my GP who suggested a sperm test, which I took and gave to the local hospital, but I never received any results as I think they lost it.
The GP was never given any results. I don’t think I could go through that again.
Now I have met a lovely girl where we have both showed our affection for each other so it’ll be inevitable that I will have sex with her very soon, especially as she has the ‘no sex before three dates rule’ – which we have now done!
Another thing that worries me is that the head of my penis is a little sensitive and I attribute my problem to this.
Also I started taking Echinacea last year at the same time I was having these problems –could this be a cause?
I am an outgoing person; I make friends easily and love meeting new people. I just want to live life enthusiastically. I would be happy if I could just find one long-lasting relationship with a girl a can please.
Answer
The first piece of advice I will give is to involve your girlfriend in this problem, do not hide it from her.
It is common for men to hide these things from their girlfriends which make them feel let out. A lack of dialogue in matters like these can make the woman think that there something going on behind her back, even that the man is having sex elsewhere and is unable to sleep with her.
Have a check with a doctor. If he finds no physical cause then you will need some psychological help. You may ask for medication of the doctor can allow it as even a short term remedy can build your confidence substantially and even solve the problem. But first a physical cause has to be ruled out before taking any other lines of action.
Good luck.
Yours sincerely
