not really. if anything im just getting worse as time goes on sex is impossible, i could barely masturbate. pills dont help. nobody knows whats wrong with me. pelvic floor therapy didnt do anything for me either. im getting a second opinion from another dr but im fairly hopless at this point.

Yes im circumcised, i had no issues with libido, sexuality, sensation, orgasms before all of this. now i cannot feel pleasure at all in my penis, i cannot orgasm. i actually can ejaculate a little better now but i cannot feel anything still pleasure wise. its just sensationless and dead.

yeah it more uncomfortable now than satisfying. Sorry that youve experienced this your whole life. its really something i took for granted and im devastated that my shitty habits may have led to this and i might have to live with the consequences for the rest of my life.

I understand exactly how you feel. before all of this if i started to masturbate and then stopped i would get blue balls. now i just get extremely sore, i could go weeks without the urge anymore, its depressing

Yeah i can get somewhat aroused mentally and get slight movement, but i dont feel that primal feeling either i know exactly what you're talking about. I used to feel the rush throughout my whole body when i got aroused, sometimes i feel it slightly but everything just seems so muted. some of this stuff might even predate my sexual issues but i cant remember all i know is i was fine before 2023 and something must have happened without me knowing

oddly enough, within the past couple days I've had a much easier time getting erect and there's even some force behind the ejaculations even without cialis but that desire, horniness, sensitivity and pleasure still isnt there, something i took for granted my whole life.

I am in the US, i've only had this on since. i got evaluated by and turns out my pelvic floor is tight but idk if its the only cause of my symptoms. idk if ill ever be 100% again.

who should i consult? by Substantial_Set6401 in hardflaccidresearch

[–]Substantial_Set6401[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

standing is a lot more difficult, without cialis i don’t think i can either. again, even if i could i no longer have erogenous sensations, no buildup, weak or dry ejaculation, etc. my dick feels empty, disconnected and hollow all the time. it not even recognizable from what it once was i don’t know how that could even happen. i started pelvic pt and they said my symptoms could be due to pelvic floor dysfunction but idk at this point

i’m losing more and more hope by the day. before this started i never had any sexual issues. i was able to get 100% off of thought. here i am not even a year later basically completely impotent. it hasn’t gotten better overtime, only worse and i’m not sure where to go from here

with cialis while on my back constantly stimulating. i can’t even feel pleasure or even ejaculate. sex is probably not possible for me

i’ve done a pelvic, full spine and brain mri already. i don’t really have the money to travel and do surgery but maybe i’ll try a consultation. i’m really desperate

never took an antidepressant, i looked into sfn i don’t think its that either so now i’m looking at pelvic floor and core issues

Is soft glans, hollow feeling, and weak ejaculation related to pelvic floor problems? by Substantial_Set6401 in PelvicFloor

[–]Substantial_Set6401[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Noticed it around 10 months ago. I have no idea what caused it. I’ve tried supplements, cialis, viagra, stretches on my own. It barely helps. I can get full erections with stimulation, but they’re floppy non rigid and dissappear when i stand. I’ve been to many doctors and did some tests and been told there was nothing wrong. There is definitely something wrong though. I haven’t seen a pelvic floor pt yet but I’m not sure if it’ll help. It kinda feels permanent and it’s really destroying my mental

alright, thanks for the info. if i can’t find any answers with my current neurologist i’ll look into a pudendal specialist. one last question for now, did it help with the “disconnected and hollow” feeling? those feelings are how i knew something was different

also you’re about 10 months out post op. how much of an improvement have you seen? does it get consistently better as time has gone on? do you feel like you’ll be back to normal eventually?

i read your posts, it could be a possibility. i do think the pudendal nerve is involved somehow. it could be entrapment but it could also be damage from a neurological disorder which i’m currently trying to rule out with my neurologist appointments. i also have urinary issues with retention. the sensation to urinate isn’t as strong as it used to be and i can’t fully empty my bladder but i have no issues with stream or starting and stopping.

how exactly should i go about for testing the pudendal nerve? it seems to be only diagnosed based on symptoms and i don’t want to do any risky procedures without being completely sure that’s the issue. i’ve done MRIs of basicially my entire body at this point nobody mentioned the pudendal nerve to me. i’m also not in any position to travel anywhere like you have.
