Hello, I was wondering.....for the past few months i just stopped having morning erections and even normal erections are weak and pretty soft could this be because my penis is pretty curved? I included some flaccid photos, since it's pretty visable even in flaccid.
How is your health and mental health? Sometimes low erection quality can be psychological. Do you diabetes, high blood pressure or high cholesterol?
Taking test next week. i dont think I am that okay with mind, thinking about it every day, I have varicocele aswell. can psychical problem cause loss of morning erections??
Being anxious and stressed out about the test can probably cause it. I don’t varicocele would cause that. Have you injured your penis before for it to be a physical problem? Masturbating a lot to porn sometimes causing that…but giving your dick a rest for it would get you back up. You should also do a health check just to be sure everything is ok.
It may sound rather strange but there is such a thing as ‘fractured’ penis - best to see a Doctor - if you have not had the curvature all your adult life you may need to see a Urologist to get this sorted.
As Brian suggests, you may have broader issues that are not directly link but can have a very important influence - and yes, your broader physical health is of critical importance …
Are you a bicyclist? Just a thought…
From Harvard University:
Sitting on a bicycle seat puts pressure on the perineum, compressing those crucial nerves and arteries. … Nerve damage accounts for the penile numbness that some male bikers experience. Pressure on the pudendal artery can add to this nerve injury to produce temporary or prolonged erectile dysfunction.
No, I am not. It just happened from one day to another w/o injury or what so ever.
.. this is a very important factor that is too easily forgot - as a one-time regular mountain biker this is something I experienced for a while. At the time, I was also doing a great deal of gym training where I would sit on static cycles, rowing machines and suchlike for several hours at a time - unless you have your seating position perfectly set numbness and associated issues can be a major problem …
Do you have any advice what should I do?
The most important thing is to get a full health check to make sure there are no health issues that are a factor in this. If you are on regular medication, particularly if you recently change medication, then any of these could also have an influence.
Are you doing any sports training or participation or regular gym training?
Age can also be a factor - so for example, at age 35 or so I needed to start using Ck Rings to ensure my erection was as I wanted it to be and that I could last long-enough.
As Brian has touched upon, our mental well-being is a huge factor - often we may not even realise we are under considerable stress, for example, say at work, in our private life, or due to concerns regarding the important people in our lives - or even a combination of stressful factors …
I stopped doing sports few months back, since i have been busy with college and work. Sometimes I feel a slight pain/discomfort in my testicles and groin. Not that much of issue but i sometimes feel it. Also from time to time I feel like my urinating stream is not as strong. Which might be related to the penis numbness?
… medical professionals are the people you need to be discussing these issues with …
Yes, you should check with a medical professional to have them look at these issues.
