New Relationship - Scared

I’ve just started seeing a guy who is romantic and old-fashioned like me, so the relationship has been progressing slowly which I would be happy with regardless of my sexual issues.

However, it’s now been 2.5 years since I took propecia and my libido still fluctuates so much that I will go weeks with NO SEXUAL desire and it just so happens that I’m in one of those states right now. Sometimes I feel like I’ve recovered my libido a bit, only for it to vanish again. If I enter a good phase and masturbate daily, would that help me?

Otherwise, will this feeling continue forever? Is there anything I can take to help at all? Viagra? How about any of the dopamine agonists? I just don’t want to lose someone special because I offer nothing sexually. :cry:

I think explaining your situation will drop a lot of that sexual anxiety you have had from taking propecia. Obviously it’s not going to fix you, but it will help release some of that tention you bare.

I did explain what was going on last night and he said, “if you’re in, you’re in.” That was actually REALLY reassuring.

But is it still worth getting some viagra?

Don’t need the extra details. It can help eliminate any extra stress, it’s good having a pants treat just to help get rid of that anxiety of ED.

Dude, I only mean it’s nice to be in a supportive relationship. That would help anyone with ED!

But yes, pants treat seems like a go.

Heart, I haven’t dealt with either Viagra or Cialis so I may not be the best to give you an opinion but I would steer toward Cialis if you can help it. I believe Dr. Crisler is advocating for its daily use for us PFS’ers and I could be mistaken, but I’ve never heard of blindness being related to Cialis and I have heard of the connection with Viagra–although, I think it was from long-term use, it’s at least something to consider and look into.

Whichever route you go though, good luck!
