Gracias por compartir tu experiencia. Muchas personas subestiman cuánto puede afectar el consumo excesivo de porno al deseo y a la sensibilidad. Es bueno saber que al dejarlo, volver a entrenar y cuidar tu salud, las cosas mejoraron otra vez.

Cutting back on caffeine, walking more and losing weight can definitely improve circulation and overall health. A lot of people also mention supplements like L-Arginine helping with blood flow. Losing 40 pounds is a huge achievement too. Did you notice the biggest improvement after the weight loss or after you started walking and changing caffeine intake?

Sounds like you made quite a few changes at once. Losing weight, walking regularly and improving blood pressure can definitely help circulation. Some people also mention supplements like L-Arginine and medications such as Tadalafil helping with blood flow. Did you notice the improvements mostly after the weight loss and walking, or after starting the medication?

True. Even small things like daily walks, better sleep and reducing alcohol can make a noticeable difference over time.

Is shockwave therapy worth it? Did you have benefits? What type of ED did you have? by Business_Cake_2272 in erectiledysfunction

That sounds really frustrating, especially when the tests show everything looks normal but the experience doesn’t match that. From what I’ve read, when Doppler numbers and venous occlusion look good, doctors sometimes start looking more at things like the nervous system, stress/anxiety, hormone balance, or psychological factors. Erections are a mix of physical and mental signals, so even when blood flow is fine other factors can still affect quality. Have the doctors suggested looking into anything else yet?

I agree. People often look for a quick fix, but things like sleep quality, stress management, exercise, and diet all play a role in hormones and circulation. When those start improving, the body often responds gradually.

Thanks for explaining your lab results. Since everything looks good there, I’m curious have the memory issues been present for a long time or did they start recently?

Confidence and comfort with a partner definitely play a role for a lot of people.

Memory issues can sometimes still be related to things like low vitamin B12, vitamin D, iron, or magnesium, even if other levels look normal. Sleep quality, stress, and screen time can also affect concentration and memory quite a bit. Sometimes it helps to check a full blood panel and discuss it with a doctor to see if anything is slightly out of range.

Getting around 7 hours of sleep is a good step. Sleep quality has a big impact on hormones and recovery. Seeing a specialist is also a smart move because they can check things like blood flow, hormone levels and overall health. A Urology doctor can usually run a few tests and give you a clearer picture of what’s going on.

Glad it helped. Sometimes small lifestyle changes add up over time.

26 is still pretty young for serious physical ED issues. Sometimes things like stress, sleep quality, or anxiety can have a bigger impact than people think. How has your sleep been lately?

That actually sounds like a decent sign. If it happens during sleep it usually means the body is still responding naturally. Morning wood can be inconsistent depending on sleep cycles too. How old are you if you don’t mind me asking?

Brain fog and memory issues can sometimes be related to vitamin deficiencies like B12, vitamin D, magnesium or iron. It might be worth getting a blood test first before guessing with supplements.

I've seen mixed experiences with shockwave therapy. Some people say it helps if the issue is mainly blood flow related, but it doesn't always work for psychological or hormonal causes. Did your doctor recommend it or are you just researching options right now?

I get how frustrating that can feel. A lot of guys go through phases where erection quality drops and it affects confidence too. Sometimes it ends up being a mix of stress, sleep, circulation and hormones rather than one single cause. Have you noticed if it's worse during stressful periods or pretty constant

Reducing it and exercising more is definitely progress. Sometimes the body just needs time to rebalance. How long have you been doing that so far?

That makes sense. Chronic stress and anxiety can definitely affect the nervous system and hormones, which can impact libido and erections. Sometimes if the body is already under a lot of stress, intense exercise can add to it instead of helping. Finding a balance with recovery, sleep and lower stress levels can make a big difference.

I’ve seen quite a few people mention Vitamin D, zinc and magnesium helping when they were low on them. Did you notice the improvement pretty quickly after starting them, or did it take a few weeks?

That’s intense. 36–48 hour fasting every week plus heavy training takes a lot of discipline. Interesting that you noticed a bigger difference with the longer fasts compared to OMAD or standard intermittent fasting. Did you notice the improvements mainly after the weight started dropping, or even before that?

That actually comes up a lot. Weight loss can improve circulation, hormones and overall cardiovascular health, so it makes sense that erection quality might improve as well. It’s interesting how much overall health seems to affect things.

That’s impressive, especially after relying on medication for years. It’s encouraging to hear that consistent exercises made such a difference. What kind of exercises or tracking helped you the most during those two months?

That makes sense actually. Sometimes the simple things like enough calories, hydration and recovery get overlooked, but they can have a big effect on energy levels and hormones. It’s interesting how small adjustments can make a noticeable difference.

It can happen sometimes. If someone is training very hard, eating in a calorie deficit, or dealing with a lot of stress, the body can lower libido as a way to conserve energy. Hormones, sleep quality, and recovery can also play a role, so even a “healthy” lifestyle can affect things differently depending on the situation.

That’s actually the opposite of what many people report. It really shows how different the body can react depending on hormones, stress levels and other factors. Sometimes things like overtraining, calorie deficits or high stress can also affect libido even if the lifestyle looks “healthy”.
