New PFS Sufferer. NO DICK WORKING FOR A WEEK :(

Hi guys,

Sorry for maybe dealing with a subject which might have been already dealt with…
One week into the crash and my dick is useless, so is my libido…
Weird thing is that I woke up on Monday with a semi boner ( took a picture I was so happy).
Ever since my dick is useless again…
Shall I see the boner as a positive sign? ( Well, not expecting overnight recovery but improvement)
I was told I was early on the crash… I am seeing my GP tomorrow for blood tests it might be a bit early to get viagra or cialis? Honestly I won’t let that impotence issue ruin my life… If no improvement is on the way quick, I will go for a implant ASAP.
Is the “limp” dick phase something I have to accept or do I have to integrate I will never get an erection again?
Regards from French Dude.

Give it a time.
it is too early to panic and when you panic.
it will be much worse also you might have a nocturnal erections which you are not aware of.

I couldn’t get an erection after my crash.

I can now.

Chill out. Give it 3 months.

Implant is a bit drastic to do ASAP! I’d give it a full year before even considering that.

Boner as it stands is not a bad sign at all, no.

Honestly though don’t jump into anything crazy just now, give your body a little time to recover. The VAST majority do just bounce back in a few months.

Yeah I know…
I am so gutted about the whole thing that I am already going for those options…
As I read your stories I understand that notion of crash…
I trace back things and it makes sense…
The more difficult erections, the inability to sustain these…
My stupid question: why does everything falls apart when you get off the drug?

Another question.
Is the boner a sign that in the worst case,
Viagra might help or cialis?

If i were you, i will quit the forum right now. Try not to think about it, yes your situation is so new, you don’t have to compare yourself with people here. Too early to do that.

Hey man,

Sorry you’re suffering. I don’t know how things work in France, but I wouldn’t spend thousands of dollars at the doctor trying to figure this out. Learn that mistake from us :slight_smile:

Sure, go for metabolic panels, CBCs, hormone panels, all that, but honestly if the doctors don’t find anything wrong with your organs, I don’t think you’ll find a good causative agent for this PFS. Report these side effects to your national agency responsible please.

You will not get a penis implant. Your erectile function may come back as mine, and many other peoples did. I know everything is super stressful, bro. If my present self could go back in time and tell my day 1 crash self anything, it would be to relax, rest, meditate, and to not blow thousands of dollars on doctors, supplements, and useless bullshit.

Hang in there. You might actually completely recover since many of us here consider 3 months to be the true, long lasting PFS mark.

Man, there is a woman whose son took his life from this shit, she is great and I had her on the phone. Seeing my GP tomorrow with a list of tests to do. There are a couple of professors taking care of patient with FPS in France: Paris ans Lyon.
We have social security so good point.
It is confusing though…
First I need to check those blood tests. Then I will have to adapt…
It is an ordeal life is presenting me.
I am just in the beginning of this so it is hard… I had a good day today: I could function normally and work.
I would like to thank you for taking time to drop a message, that is a true blessing for me.

Im glad you had a normal day, man! To me, that’s a really good sign. I did not have a normal day during my initial crashes haha. I thought I was dying I was so tired and peeing every ten seconds.

I am getting over obsessed by this no erection stuff : I mean ZERO. Fun thing was that semi boner on Monday night which gave me wrong hopes… I also felt my libido came back for a while… But on the willy aspect, it is close to nothing… I am not too deep in the depression field so far… Was brainfogy yesterday but overall I slept 8 hours last night…
Well had to wake up to pee but was back to sleep easily.

That’s good you can sleep. Many of us can’t. To try to stop obsessing, I recommend ten minutes of meditation per day in the morning. And limit yourself to how Often you go on this website. For example, only twenty minutes a day of PropeciaHelp. I’m also impressed by your English skills. Is everyone in France taught English early in life?

Well I actually teach English so that might explain the kinda fluency ;).
Is it a frequent thing this I can’t get an erection?
I felt I was starting to lose it recently, which made me stop the pill.
But that it deteriorate overnight just fucks me up…
