Is this Erectile Dysfunction?

[anewfoundsin2]

im 27. and i do get hardon when aroused but i noticed lately (like past 6 months), that when i try to masterbate, my hardon doesnt last as long. like at most 5 min! and when it goes away its really hard to get it hardon. i try porn, and stuff and still. it used to be easy (like say a year ago). ihavent had a sexual partner in over 3 yrs and that even that was very minimal. i do have hypo thyroid. do i have erectile dysfunction? i dont have insurance to see a dr yet but hopefully soon.

I rather doubt you have ED because you can achieve erections. People with ED get little to no erections.

> my hardon doesnt last as long. like at most 5 min! and when it goes away its really hard to get it hardon.

What if anything is different or are you doing differently than before?

Are you continuing to stimulate your penis when it begins to relax? If not, try using a lube and a light touch. Also, what mental fantasies are you using if any?

Another technique when an erection subsides is to give it a while - perhaps fifteen minutes or so and try again, also using a lube instead of a dry rub. Concentrate on your hot spots.

Brandye will have to tell you whether or not you have a possible medical condition.
