I think my ED is psychological?

[Cicsa]

I have been reading allot about erectile dysfunction being caused by emotional stress or psychological anxiety. There is a great blog post about it by the way:
Is my erectile dysfunction emotional or psychological?

Most of the symptoms to check if your impotence is psychological I have. I mean I can get it up when I jerk off and I also get morning wood but sleeping with my girlfriend has become very difficult. I can't seem to maintain my erection? Does anyone have any ideas how to treat this without using viagra?

Thats a good read. I have confirmed my erectile dysfunction is psychological. I can get erections when masturbating and in the morning when I wake up but never when I want to have sex with my girlfriend. I am currently taking drops of horny goat weed so I will let you guys know how it goes..

Yeah same here, but with me porn is no problem to get erections to but when it comes down to sleeping with a girl or even watching strippers dance it is very hard to get an erection. Why is it that pron can give me very hard ones but when I see the real thing its a no go??

Guys, I sincerely hope for you that it is purely mental because that will be easier to correct than a physical problem.

However, don't fall into the same trap I did. I am young, so I always thought mine was just mental. I could get morning wood, look at erotic material and do OK with erections, but with women I always had a hard time.

GO SEE A UROLOGIST! I finally went to one and he found out I had arterial damage to due bike riding. That's right: the arteries between your legs can get damaged from riding bikes. He did tests on me to confirm this.

There is a cure, however. Google "penile revascularization."

Good luck.

Hmmm I am fairly young myself and ride motorcycles allot? I to can get erections with porn and by myself but not with my girlfriend, I have to take cialis to keep up with here for the weekend? Going to look up penile revascularization right now, if I tell my urologist about this will he know what it means?

[Willie]

He should know what it is, but probably won't do the surgery himself because it is done by only a few surgeons.

Insurance will probably cover it, so that's great news.
