Question for 40 year olds and up

[Alcatraz]

Aprox how long does it take you to get a full erection. If you respond, please indicate your age and whether you consider yourself healthy for your age in terms of your ability to get an erection.

Why I'm asking...

I am 34. Way before starting PE I was diagnosed as having "vascular insufficiency." This is the explanation for my moderate erectile dysfunction (ED). I've not found any credible info on this subject so I'm hoping to collect some info from the members here.

For many years I had an unrealistic idea of how long it should take thanks to the porno industry. Pornos make you think any guy should be able to get an immediate erection and I know this isn't the case, especially for older guys.

Thanks in advance for any input.

Alcatraz2,
I am 40, and like you, I was having trouble achieving an erection. I guess this would be labeled as a type of (ED) My wife was becoming very frustrated, even to the point of whining and displaying body language that seethed with disappointment when I was unable to perform and satisfy her. Her reaction did nothing for my esteem, and only made matters worse (this was up until about 6 months ago, by the way) About that time, I started searching the web for a possible remedy or solution for this problem. That was about the time I found this board. I also ran into an individual who had experienced the same problem as I, and he e-mailed me a document that has helped me overcome my problem. Contained in this document are various exersizes and methods of kegeling and jelqing. Some of the kegel exersizes are quite intense, such as the PC Blaster. Since that time, I have been doing a minimum of 500 kegels daily (usually while driving to work), and do the more intense kegel exercizes on a daily basis also, whenever I find the time. I also jelq 1/2 hour, 2 days on, 1 day off. I must admit I was skeptical at first, and didn't really think I would see much of a result, if any. Well, I'm here to tell you that it has made a bigger difference then I would ever have imagined. Hardly a night goes by that I don't wake up with very hard erections. I have also gained about 3/4 of an inch in length, and my penis is in better shape than ever. My veins are much more prominent, and my erections are just as hard as they were when I was 20. My wife has to be careful now when she is on top, because the tip of my penis hits her cervix if she comes down too far and too hard. Things have certainly turned around 180 degrees, and I am still amazed at how the above mentioned exercizes turned things around. I am especially sold on kegeling and strengthening the PC muscle. I can send you the document with the various exercizes if you want it. Hope this helps. Im4tunate2

Even in the porno industry those guys are not always automatic. That's what fluffer girls are for. If only we could all have our own fluffer girl. lol

im4tunate2,

Thanks for the response. Although I don't know what PC Blasters are, I kegel and jelq religiously. My regiment has improved my situation, but not as much as you experienced. Thanks for the offer though.

Back to the question - How long does it usually take you to get an erection?

Priapus,

Your right, I need a fluffer. LOL!!

Hi alc...

so here I am. As I said, I am 51 and have lived my life with jfk's words, a day without sex is a day with a headache. I got interested in PE and other things when my libido went into the dumper last summer for abut 2 months and for a while I did nothing but get depressed.

the statistic (it doesn't quote the source) on sexualfacts.com is that it takes a 50 year old 5 to 8 secounds to get an errection. For me it is two stage process. First of all, if the right thought goes through my head (and I believe it is mostly in your head) I get an errection almost immediately but only to my pre pe size of about 6". The increased half to three quater inch only comes after some period, 15 minutes or so of attention (generally from my girl friend)

one thing I would suggest is to take ginko (60mb standardised 24% 4 times a day) and check the results in 30 days. I can find no reported ill effects from ginko (other than some people comment on headaces for the first 1 or 2 days). ginko can improve circulation to most parts of the body, importantly the penis and the brain (so it has been said by a woman friend of mine that it is self defeating) and actually can help reduce a hangover if you over imbibe.

good luck .bb

I am 62 and it takes no time at all. I stay erect for as long as i want. I just am not as big as i want to be. If I wanted to I coul go twice a day.

This is not brag just fact. And I may be just different

I read about how happy you were with the exercise and would like to get the material. How can I get it?

Alcatraz.

I am 55 and have been a viewer of this board since January 2001. The main reason that I found this board was that I was having ED problems. About 5 years ago (could be more) I found that my blood pressure was very high (170+ over 90+) and the doc put me on Norvas 5mg a day (spelling may be wrong). Up until that time I had no problem in getting it up and had nightly erections. About 4 years ago I had to increase the dose to 10mg and gradually the get-up started to go. About 3 years ago I asked the Doc about this and his reply was that due to the type of medication, this was going to be a problem. At the start of sex I could get it up but it would only last for a few minutes and then soften. Yes this was causing some bed problems and the wife was not a happy camper, but was very supportive.

On my next visit to the Doc I asked whether Viagra would help and his reply was that it probably would not. I asked if there were any other Meds out there that would help the BP and not the ED and his reply was not likely. Now I'm really in the dumps.

Then about a year ago I found that if I used a cock ring, this helped in keeping the erection but made Johnson much shorter (at that time I was only about 5.5 EBP). At least now I had a somewhat better sex life but the stress of the cock ring was hard on Johnson.

At about the same time I seeked out another Doc (this person was much younger say 30 or so) and got a perscription for Viagra and this really helped. Did'ent need the ring anymore and the Johnson was not stressed as before but I don't like taking Meds unless I have to.

About March 2001 I was reading a thread on this board and another member talked about another drug called Diovan and that it had almost no side affects. I went to the same Doc (that I got Viagra from before) and told him my story and suggested that I would like to change my Med's. He agreed and put me on a drug in the Diavan family for 4 weeks and said that it might take 4 to 8 weeks before I would notice any changes. Well after 4 weeks I could notice a gradual increase in my erections but night time and on demand and today after being on this Med for 6 weeks I had sex the other night with no help, and the erection lasted for the full duration (about 10 minutes).

Now I have been PE'ing for the last 5 months and I really know that this has helped big time. I have gained length, girth, stemina and most importantly self confidence. It only takes about 15 seconds to achieve what I never could get 6 months ago.

So if any of you are taking BP Meds, then look at the side affects. But be aware that most of the Drug Co's don't tell the whole story if they effect ED.

Sorry for the long winded thread.

I am 62. It onlytake a few moments. My gun is quick. I can't even go to the doctor and have one of those exams without getting an erection.
My wife loves this but I am just not large enough for her to reach a climax. I give out after about 25 min. and can't hold out.

At 62 I could use that document. I don't know how this works but if there is a way i would like to have it. I am too new to understand how sending and receiving works.

What document are u referring to?

The whole program?

Depends on who's doing the erecting! ;^)

I'm 46 and I can obtain an erection on my own in about a minute to a minute and a half. When my beautiful wife is involved, I can obtain one in way less than a minute. And I'm fortunate that I can maintain an erection even after I ejaculate for up to thirty minutes or more. I'm lucky I can do that because I tend to ejaculate rather quickly.

And getting a hard on in public takes nothing more than her talking about sex or "getting a handful" when nobody is looking.

I consider myself to be very healthy. I've lost considerable weight over the past two years and I work out six days a week. Three days with free weights and three days of cardio. I run an average of 12 miles a week.

Also, the vision and the hearing are showing signs of age, but the plumbing between my legs seems intact!

OK Looks like I'm the old man here 65 Don't get the erections by just thinking about it during the day at work - but still real quick when it matters. Been into multi-orgasims for the last couple of years ( Taoist sexuality ) also calledSexual Kung fu. Believe me when I say IT WORKS ! Suggest that EVERY Male should check it out. There is a pretty good paperback out entitled "The multi-orgasmic Man" ~ $15.00 Barnes & Nobel or Borders. Might be interesting to know that I have gone through radition treatment for prostrate cancer ( 2 years ago )
Good erections to all !
