Observation: erection quality when standing vs sitting/lying on back, morning vs night

Mew,
I’m having the same problem… Did you find any possible reason for this…?
Are you still having this issue??

Exactly what I have. I get erections pretty fast lying down, but when I get on top of a woman, I start to lose the erection and the mood. So embarrassing. It’s not always so, but very often.
And yes, I think this wouldn’t happen so often, if sex happened more in the mornings. I’m just not horny in the night.

Hi,

I still have the issue although its not as bad as when I was on/came off drug, and first 2 years off. Still easier to get erection while laying down compared to standing up, and if standing up only get about 50 degree angle upwards compared to 90 degree before Fin… it also doesnt last long while standing up, it’s difficult to maintain.

Probably has to do with bloodflow/tissue changes.

In addition to Mew’s post I notice that if I’ve got an erection and it’s not full in any position, if I then sit down with legs out or cross the legs it becomes fuller and will stay fuller longer. I’ve tried to have sex this way but it doesn’t work well with the condom.

I also have this issue with the erection being better if I am laying down. Mine also goes away immediately when I get up.

I notice that any sexual position other than me laying down and girl on the top tends to make my erections weaker.

I’m not sure if this is a blood flow issue or not. However, I did have an ultrasound done of my testicles and prostate and I was told the blood flow to the area was good. So I believe there is something more to this issue than simply blood flow.

Prolly nothing but have you guys had your bloodpreasure checked from sitting to standing up?

I don’t think it has anything to do with bloodflow changes. It generally is harder to have an erection in that position and the loss of libido just makes it worse for us.

I found this in a site ,

cure-erectile-dysfunction.org/ca … tanding/71

Lacking androgen hormones ((DHEA), Testosterone, DHT, Androstenedione, Androsterone, and Androstenediol), that are needed to supply the lower part of the body when you are in an upright position. Then you suffer erectile dysfunction because there is not enough “fuel” left for any sexual activity. This is a sign of sexual exhaustion.

I have my blood test results for Testosterone and it is in range …may be I need to get my blood test done for androgen hormones ((DHEA), DHT, Androstenedione, Androsterone, and Androstenediol .

Any suggestions…??

Did any one of you guys facing this problem have these test results in the range?

This is a very good way to state my problem. Sexual exhaustion.

We may eventually have to experiment with a SARM S4. If this is indeed all androgenic, this drug acts like Clomid in a sense…where it’s different is it could activate these androgens…

sarm s4 would cost about 300 bucks a month to use

The SARM s4 has been stopped in clinical development so I would be wary about running it.

Hopefully SARMS will help us one day. At the moment they just seem to be linked to muscle growth rather than libido and the other symptoms of hypogonadism.

That’s exacly my problem. It looks like “VENOUS LEAK”.
Viagra, Cialis and Levitra don’t work for me anymore (2 years using then, I think i’ve got some tolerance).

Any news about this issue?

That’s exactly what I’m scared of, tolerance to those drugs. What are the options if they stop working?

This phenomenon has nothing to do with T levels being marginally higher in the morning.

When you stand, the pelvic floor increases in tonicity due to tension in the surrounding musculature. Guys with non-finasteride related CPPS have the exact same symptom.

Moreover, first thing in the morning, the pelvic floor has been relaxing (relatively) all night. Throughout the day, tension increases and so symptoms get worse.

I often wake up with almost normal libido, but it dies (to zero) later in the day.

Your guys’ problem solving skills… seriously.

Anyone recovered from this? Even those who didn’t post here.

I have erections while sitting, halo erections while lying and zero erections while standing.

Yes, I found I couldn’t get an erection unless lying on my side for a while. I can now while standing.

What did you do to improve?

Avoided 5ar inhibiting foods.

I wonder: even if we are mentally cured from PFS, wouldn’t physical penis intervention such as PRP and shockwaves still be needed to restore the tissues of the penis? I say this because we may have permanently damaged the tissues of the penis, and even with endocrine recovery, the physical part could still remain bad.

I can get erections sitting and lying on my side, for example, and I don’t see that improve. I can’t get erections on my feet because they don’t last two seconds. I have no neurological, intestinal, visual problems, etc. So it may be that I have to work only the physical part of my penis (with PRP and shockwave) to repair the tissues, because if the cells suffered apoptosis, I don’t see how they could “revive” even with endocrine correction. I don’t even know if I have libido or not, because realizing the loss of erections when I’m standing, it scares me a lot.
