kevinthomas Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 I haven't had a proper erection for months. Sometimes it works when I masturbate. What is causing it and what can I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill - Seemiller Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 kevin, There could be a number of reasons for this. Thus, I'd recommend consulting with your doctors as most here won't be equipped to answer your questions. All the Best, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member mmhce Posted August 3, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted August 3, 2009 kevin, I agree with Bill. You need to consult with a qualified medical professional. The first questions they will ask you are: 1. How long since you've noticed the problem? 2. What have you done about it? 3. What drugs are you taking? If you are on finasteride, and judging by the length of time you are/have been on finasteride, they may ask you to quit and observe the changes in your body. On a side note, alot of erectile dysfunction can be psychological. take care... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member znydn Posted December 25, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted December 25, 2011 A lot of erectile dysfunction problems can be psychological, as mmhce mentioned above. But sometimes, there are cases that some people lose their interest in sex because of becoming too addicted to masturbating. Cut off your masturbation rate a little and see how it effects. Also, if you are taking sedatives, they can cause erectile dysfunction as well. on the other hand, as there might be some other thing as well, I would also recommend that you should see a doctor as well.

Senior Member StaggerLee123 Posted December 25, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted December 25, 2011 Problems with erections tend to be the canary in the coal mine for heart and cirlculatory problems. Get yourself to a medical doctor asap and get a physical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Shyguy Posted January 22, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted January 22, 2013 Check your blood sugar asap. ED can be caused by diabetes. Also if you have sleep apnea this could lead to ED as well 1 Using Propecia since 1997 Using Rogaine Foam once a day since 2012 Using Niazoral 2% once a week since 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member michaeljames Posted May 15, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 15, 2013 I haven't had a proper erection for months. Sometimes it works when I masturbate. What is causing it and what can I do? Hello Kevin; This question is unusual for the hair loss forum; unless you are using Propecia which lists this as a possible side effect. Are you on this medication and are you receiving treatment from a hair restoration doctor. It is important to report this to him or her. If this is not the case you should know that immediate medical intervention from a qualified physician is the only and best course of action.
