Low testosterone levels can cause depression, so you should ask your doctor if that was checked.Some of the antidepressant drugs themselves can depress libido and make it harder to get hard, so you should discuss that with your doctor. There are several antidepressants now that don't have that effect.I suspect anxiety is a very significant factor. Antidepressants can reduce anxiety, and there is also specific anti-anxiety medication.

Erections and Weightlifting problem?
-
Thanks so much I'll get that looked at.
One more question, does the blood that flows into the shaft come from the area where the PC muscle is found? That seems to be the physical issue. It feels like that muscle and area is not pumping I want to say properly.

Right Urologist was for the genital problems thanks for the advice everyone.

I actually had this exact same problem. I would get that same non-painful sensation after playing tennis for a few hours. I'm pretty sure it is just stress/depression because whenever I work out or play a sport that I don't really care about, I never get that sensation no matter how hard I push myself.

It seems like my left testicle shrinks smaller than the right throughout the day.
I am going to assume its something to do with depression and continue my regular workout for the next week or so. I just started school so hopefully it will help reduce my depression. I will then take a good week off of weightlifting, then if theres still no improvement go back to the Dr.

I felt a very sharp pain last night while working out. I went to the ER and was diagnosed with epidydidimitis (spelling?) and calcifying on the right side of my testicles.I am on 10 days of Doxycylne and got a shot in the butt of it last night.I am going back to the urologist for a reevaluation. The antibiotics have already given me some relief.

Thanks for the update! It seems I was wrong again! (Perhaps if more people gave updates I'd be shown to be wrong a lot more.)
I hope it's all back to normal soon!

Believe me, you were way closer than 3-4 Doctors that actually did a physical examination! I can't believe that this was not diagnosed properly after going to two specialists, one GP, and an internal specialist. Except for an upset stomach and what not, I feel way better. The erections are returning to normal and my libido is kicked into hyper drive! Thanks for all the help everyone.When in doubt always get a second or third or fourth or in my case fifth opinion.

Glad to hear you got an answer to your problem. I guess I was wrong too, but I'm not a doctor and I don't play one on TV.Even gladder that your libido is back!

Im not a fan of GPs. Ther is one here who killed a friend of mine. He saw her for 3 months when he had "strep Throat" and couldnt get over it. Finally he ended up in an ER and was found to have lymph cancer. Im Ok witha gp for a physical or even strep throat, but if it just goes on and on or if its a serious problem to begin with your much better off to see a specialist. the shtis about them is that it normally takes a reccomendation or refferal from someone to get into see them.In your case the specailist missed it too.
