Can't keep an erection...

---

Sorry, I did a search for erection problems, but I just have to ask...
and this entire thing is a bit embarrassing...

First of all I'm only 18 and when I try to masturbate I can't keep an erection...
I feel aroused and horny (and I WANT to jack off), but it doesn't stay up...
Usually when it does stay up it only lasts for like 5 minute.. 10 minutes then the erection goes away...
I tried to have sex, but yeah... I couldn't keep an erection... It was up for like 10 minutes then it went away...

(and yes it goes away before I cum)

I mean... I'm 18... I work out sometimes... and I don't eat TOO unhealthy... I don't smoke and I don't drink...
Aghh! ..I REALLY don't want to go to the doctor... heh

Is this erectile dysfunction?
Is it permanent?

Helppp!!! heh..

Thank you..

For how long (days? weeks? months? years?) has this been happening?Do you wake up hard?

I wake up hard sometimes... 4 out of 7 days maybe?It's been like this for like... a year? (heh)

Since it affects you even when masturbating, it's not likely to be nerves, and since it's been for a long time it's not likely to be due to a temporary hormone level change or stress. I think the first thing would be to look for physical causes. A doctor could check for simple possibilities like diabetes, but it may need a urologist if it's something more sophisticated.I know it's scary, but this is what doctors are for.

I had the same problem; and I went to a urologist and told him that my mind wanted sex, but my body was not cooperating. After he quit laughing... he said that my body was not producing enough Testosterone. He prescribed 50 mg testosterone gel that I use once a day for 30-days with 3-refills and go back to see him in September for a check-up. All I can say is "My body is ready now"! He also gave me a sample pack of Viagra and told me to take 1/2 pill if I needed it; that he would give me a prescription if I needed them. See Doctor's do help! Good Luck.

Thank you guys for replying..Pity though... it seems like I HAVE to go see a doctor... Heh ROBBYM, did your doctor REALLY laugh at you? heh =/Thanks again...

Yup! He said that I had a good sense of hummer!

First off, im not trying to brag, this is an honest statement.(You dont know how often people go off on me for "Bragging" when im just trying to reply..."If anything, i have an opposite problem, I almost cant get it down and its gotten me really embarased sometimes... I wear briefs, but they dont help and leave me all chafed...

Probably because it's random and rather useless info for the original poster (me :p) (no offense)Thanks for sharin' tho lol
