ED Question

[Gorkahn]

Is Erectile dysfunction more common in large penises? I am 23 years old and am between 8.5" and 9" erect. I have no problem achieving an erection, but I can rarely keep it for more than a few minutes without constant and direct stimulation. When I masturbate I have to put pressure on the blood vessels on the base of my penis to achieve a full erection. It is difficult to do that while have sex with a woman, though.

I have never seen a study relating size to ED. If you normal blood pressure and a "normal" amount of blood, there should be no problem. Surprisingly, drinking insufficent water does reduce the blood available.

I have used vitamins and herbs for years. I am not a doctor or nutritionist. These might help after continual use:
Ginkgo Biloba - 120 mg twice daily (Phytosome type available from Solaray)
L-Arginine - 2 or 3 grams twice daily (avoid this if you have herpes)
L-Citrulline - 1 or 2 grams twice daily
Circulation Factors - 1 tab twice daily (Biochem brand from Country Life)

Also, if you are on any prescription medications you should look up possible side effects in a book called PDR. Anti-depressants can cause the problem you have also.
