Erectile Dysfunction. How can I help?

Question

After an argument this morning about our sex life my husband told me he has been struggling to get hard lately and he thinks he might have low testosterone. He says that the want to have sex with me is still there and that I’m still attractive to him but he can’t get hard. He also says that stress could be a problem and he gets super stressed when he can’t perform. I don’t know how to get him to switch his mindset and not make sex a stressful thing. How can I help him get through this? Anything he can take (preferably OTC)? He is 33 and I’m 24, I know it’s not me but our sex life has been non existent lately and I can’t help but feel upset and insecure about it.

Answer

If he could see that you’re upset or insecure... that’s gonna cause problems to getting him hard. You could be the one to stress him out.

Answer

I'd go to the dr. They can accurately diagnose the problem rather than hoping for the best with an OTC because it might help for a bit and then start all over again. You need to make him feel comfortable. He came to you about the problem which for men is super embarrassing. So be there for him and suggest making a dr appt and you'll go with if he wants you to. And also dont make him feel like he has to try and have sex with you just because you guys havent in a while or cuz your horny. Let him know that your not upset that this is going on, and you can handle it. And that you know everything will be okay and the problem will get resolved. So you'll wait as long as need be. There are other ways he can get you off besides sex or just ride solo until hes gotten help and is ready.

Answer

Have him see a doctor and get checked out. There could an underlying health issue.

Answer

I’d look into his diet I know at least a handful of men that when they went plant based they got up a lot faster and were harder because their veins and arteries got cleared so blood flow was a lot better. There’s a documentary called ‘the Game Changers’ or Forks over Knives’ that I would recommend watching.

Answer

First he needs to speak with a physician and see if his levels are low. Second, if he takes any medications dealing with depression then ED is common. Third, has he gained any weight lately? Sometimes extra weight causes ED issues with men.

Answer

There are otc supplements but the safer option is to see a doctor. Testosterone plays a part in heart function and muscle function in general so too much is just as dangerous as too little.

Answer

There are testosterone supplements he can take but talking with a doctor first is always a good idea.
