Dick not as hard as before
 

Hi guys recently i find my erected dick not as hard as before.
Last time is rock solid hard, now is just firm and erect enough to have sex nia.
Kinda worried. I am 39 this year.
Should i see a doctor?

Re: Dick not as hard as before
 

hi bro, i was having similar issues a few years back (i'm older than u!), i could get rock hard for 10+ minute stretches, but cannot maintain hardness all the way for marathon sessions like during my younger days :o

did a bit of research, tried a few things and it helped, sharing my tips here for u and other interested bros:

hardness is mainly about blood flow, how to improve blood flow?

1. cardio exercise to keep the heart pumping strongly
2. take care of health (check for silent killers like diabetes and heart disease)
3. reduce/avoid/minimise stress

do also note some medications affect blood flow:

a. blood pressure medication
b. allergy medication (antihistamines)
c. nasal decongestant (specifically pseudoephedrine)
d. antidepressants

tying in with point 2. take care of health to minimise usage of medications, or try to avoid taking these meds before sex

hope this helps! :D

Thanks bro!

Just wondering, if i take viagra or something similar, will it make my erection harder? And also easier to go for another round?

Re: Dick not as hard as before
 

Viagra will definitely help but it would be far better to check for any underlying issues first.

Hmm but I don’t have ED yet, just not as hard as before.
So still can take viagra ah?

Re: Dick not as hard as before
 

I have a similar problem and I am older, the hardness is very inconsistent.

Erection last longer but once you cum, its gone. Try cialis. That may help

Re: Dick not as hard as before
 

The loss of ability to achieve an erection is a gradual process in most cases.

It starts off as you describe (loss of hardness) and if the underlying cause is not addressed it could progress to the point where it is no longer rigid enough to achieve penetration.

This is why the primary cause needs to be determined. If the tiny capillaries required to transport blood to the penis are no longer functioning as they should a medical professional needs to determine why this is so. It points to issues such as diabetes, high cholesterol levels, hypertension etc.

On the other hand if your cardiovascular system is fine the issue could be hormonal (drop in testosterone levels) or there could be some mechanism which is interfering with NO (Nitric Oxide) production which is required as part of the process for achieving an erection eg the excessive use of mouthwash can cause ED!

Viagra will definitely help but it does not cure the root cause. It's like taking panadol for a brain tumor. It reduces the pain but it does nothing to cure the source of the problem.

I try cialis recently. Erection do seems slightly harder than before, although before that i still can achieve an erection but not so firm.
Weird thing is i had a hard on in the middle of the night for no reason when i go and pee..haha.

tonkat ali, the best thing ever invented for manhood

Re: Dick not as hard as before
 

i experienced that too

Re: Dick not as hard as before
 

Viagra and such helps to get hard easier, but not give you a good hardness, that will depend on your body and how excited you are, I think.

Re: Dick not as hard as before
 

That is normal and I am older than you. Are you a heavy smoker? If so, better cut down, or best stop 100%

Are you obese as well? If so, better start exercising

These are physical and lifestyle habits that will affect older men

You probably can have yr erection hardness back
