General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,

Thanks for posting in HCM.

I understand your concern that you are having problems with erection.
It is good that you have tried with L-arginine and it seems that it is not well now.

But since most of such problems are psychological than physical, 'behavioral therapy' has to be tried first and then medications could be added to it, depending on the response.

You can try 'pause-squeeze technique' regularly. In about 3 months, you will appreciate that you will not only get good erection, but also start holding on for long. that should develop more confidence in you.

Based on the response, you can add, if necessary, medications to treat erectile dysfunction. You can take Tablet.Tadalfil 20mg 30 min before the act to achieve good and sustained erection.

Hope the information provided would be useful.
All the best.
