At 41, I started noticing a slight change and loss of firmness and i didn't do anything for a few weeks but just decided one night after feeling bad after an orgasm (Something no one should ever feel) that I should go see my doctor and get a sample pack of Viagra.
I was difficult bringing the subject up to my DW and I felt a great deal of shame over it but in the end, I figured it would be best to be up front and honest and potentially have great sex again than to be withdrawn and quiet about it and not have good sex at all.
I am on high blood pressure meds and anti-depressants (sp) but have zero need to viagra or any other stimulant. My SO does quite well to stimulate me!!!
We have a very interesting an non-repetitive sex life -- where it is far from routine -- that I think in-and-of-itself helps in a relationship.
Sometimes my bf doesn't stay hard for too long. He always starts out super hard but once in a while loses a little firmness after a few minutes. This happens particularly if we have had sex a lot. Compounding the problem is that if we have had sex a lot it takes him forever to cum. He does have a very large penis though; i have heard that large ones are a little more likely to deflate a little bit.
He did try Levitra once and that was positively scary how hard he got and stayed that way. I actually thought he was going to pop a blood vessel or something. But that was just the one time; better to not use performance enhancers I think.
The best thing I did was to start having sex without IC because that gave me alot of sexual release made very happy to see my wife enjoy herself having multiple Os.
Yes one time hubby was taking a new medication and he could get hard
but couldn't climax. It really bothered me. Of course it bothered him.
We decided it was the meds the only other time that happens is because
of to much whiskey!

Yes, a few years back Dh was having problems with ED.
About 8 years ago, my DH started having problems with arrhythmia and then ended up with a virus (Epstein Barrs Virus). He had to start taking meds for his heart problems, was very tired from the virus, and took more than 6 months to fully recover. During that time, he did develop problems with ED, which have continued off and on throughout the years.
At one time, he was more bothered by it, but now he doesn't view it as a big deal. Most of the time he doesn't have any problems and on the occasion that he does, we just enjoy each other without including intercourse. He does have a prescription for Viagra, and sometimes uses that, but normally only if we are planning for it. If he uses Viagra, well, I don't have any complaints there either ;-)
I know it seems like it would be difficult to discuss with a doctor, but it really is worth bringing up for anyone who is dealing with ED.
