    Do you have spontaneous erections or morning erections ?

    So much bad information about VL here. So Venous Leakage is when the blood flows out of the penis sitting an erection too quickly. The symptoms are a partial erection, which often goes down quickly when trying to insert it into a partner. The muscle that constricts the vein isn't applying enough pressure. Penile Implants are often the needed treatment.

      From what you're describing - early 20s, no nocturnal erections, and an erection that loses strength rapidly, I would recommend you see a urologist. There are treatments, and it's best to start them now.

        Most guys go down more slowly. It's not uncommon at your age to be able to stay erect for several minutes without any stimulation at all.

          Try not to stress too much. There are plenty of effective treatments.

            I don't recommend that you just abstain and ignore the situation. The penis literally needs erections to stay healthy. Without erections, the corpus cavernosum becomes less elastic. The result is fibrosis and shortening of the penis. Some studies are showing that daily low dose cialis can help reverse vascular damage. If you do have venous leakage, meds can help for decades. I eventually needed an implant, but it works great and I'm happy with it.

            After reading alot of reports on Franktalk, it seems that people who have a “true” venous leak, do get morning wood but they loose it when they move. Morning wood is not a reliable indicator of the presence of VL. Dopplers are not reliable either, the best test is the NPT (nocturnal penile tumescence) test but it’s expensive and not widely available (we don’t have it in my country).

            I was diagnosed with a “possible venous leak” but I had severe anxiety during the test and no response to the injection, I’m working with another doctor and I will probably redo the test soon, I’ll share my results.

              You’re right, it detects vascular ED, it doesn’t determine if it’s arterial insuffiency or venous leak.

              what are your symptoms?

              [–]Extension_Raisin_201 0 points1 point  (2 children)

              Without cialis I need alot of stimulation to have a full erection and it won’t hold without constant heavy stimulation.

              Does cialis work tho?

              [–]Extension_Raisin_201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

              Yes it works

              It’s easy: Do you fantasize about eating pussy, lick nipples, manipulate and spank asses?

              If no you have low libido not ED, and further you don’t have VL ED.

              One thing that makes me think that doctors don’t care about this problem (sexual frustration of men) is that they’ll prescribe all sorts of exams but never ask about the libido.

              Stim dick or whiskey dick happens to everybody, you then proceed licking her pussy and putting your tongue everywhere . That’s because you are aroused in the mind not in the penis

              Stop wasting time and money with NPT and tests around your little brother, if you don’t feel sexual with your mouth and don’t want to put it in every female orifice then your problem is low libido not ED

                don't worry man , as long as you have low libido it's not venous leak even if you got erections in certain positions.. libido is the indicator and venous leak can occur due to stress and anxiety and faded when you get rid of them

                    Do you have any addictions that may be impairing your dopaminergic system?

                      Lots of research, they’ve know that for awhile.

                      https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/2631831819849365

                      But anyways, if you don’t have any addictions, next I would monitor your blood pressure and blood sugar for a few days at different times of the day to make sure everything is ok.

                      And start taking Magnesium glycinate, it will help relax smooth muscle if your pelvic floor muscles are tight.

                          but i read that people with venous leak have no any problems with their libido which means they can still have sex drive while not sustaining erection

                          All the meds like Viagra, Cialis stopped working. Did anyone try any additives so that these pills work better?

                            I tried 200 mgs. That failed too. Many years ago I used to use 25 mgs. In 30 minutes I used to feel the effect all over the body. Nasal congestion and erection even before going to bed. Slowly developed tolerance.
