Question : I am unable to get and maintain erection. I used to masturbate a lot by crushing my penis between the legs before marriage. Could this be the reason. How do I overcome this
Brief Answer:
Usually mindset related. treatable
Detailed Answer:
Welcome to the forum.
Masturbation is a common practice in men, especially before marriage.
It is not known to cause any harm to the body scientifically.
It is only a myth that it causes harm in later life.
If you get night time or early morning erection, then your problem is treatable.
Things that would help are..
1. Daily exercise- for about 30 minutes ( Walk, cycle, swim)
2. Weight reduction.
3. Prolonged foreplay, before having the actual penetrative sex.
4. Diet XXXXXXX in fresh and dried fruits.
5. Medicines usually of the PDE 5 inhibitor( Like viagra) to bring your confidence back.
Please speak to your doctor on all these issues and wish you good health.
Best regards

Hi Doctor thanks for the reply. I have one more question. Can I use Tadalafil (megalis 20) initially. Is it a sperm killer.
Brief Answer:
You can use
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome back.
Megalis is also a PDE5 inhibitor that i have mentioned in the previous reply.
You may start with ten mg, a few hours before the planned act and a light dinner. You can increase upto 20 mg if results are not satisfactory.
Please give a feedback and further course of treatment can be planned.
Best regards
