Erectile Dysfunction worries

    Hi all

    Was gonna go unreg but feck it nothing to be ashamed off and nothing to hide.

    I'm a male in my mid 20's and fear I may suffer from erectile dysfunction in some form.

    I am a virgin as I've not had intercourse with a woman. Doesn't bother me at all as I'm waiting for the right woman and i'm not hung up on societal pressures.

    However, seeing as though I am not sexually active I worry I may have erectile dysfunction problems when the time eventually comes.
    I've been masturbating since I was 18 (late I know) but I've gotten used to my own technique with the 'death grip' most likely being an issue. The problem being, I can currently only ejaculate while lying on my back and watching porn.
    I also find it difficult to ejaculate more than once a day.

    I've only ever had two sexual interactions with foreplay with a woman (same woman both times). The first time, I didn't ejaculate at all even though she gave me a handjob and a blowjob. I put this down to the fact that I had ejaculated earlier that day by masturbating. The second time, again she tried with the same techniques but I had to masturbate to get myself to ejaculate and eventually did.

    I'm worried that when the right woman comes along and I do get to that stage I will ruin what should be a great experience.

    Should I visit a professional?

    Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

    Stop masturbating.

    Get into a healthy excercise routine.

    Stop over thinking things.

    I wouldn't stop masturbating all of a sudden rather cut back on your porn consumption.

    Exercise and eat well.

    When the time comes the rest will follow naturally.

    I was gonna say cutting out masturbating probably isn't the best idea. I know the porn probably could be an issue though. Now I've no massive urges to watch porn. I watch it for about 15 minutes during the act and then I have absolutely no urges to watch it again until I feel like masturbating again.

    Give the porn and masturbation a good break and take up a gym routine before the January mad rush

    You don't need a professional here, can all be fixed by yourself. It takes time though. It won't be next week, might be a few more

    A good break as in cut it out? I understand porn but cutting out masturbation completely doesn't seem wise. It'll end up with frustration and wet dreams.

    To put it crudely, your iron fisted grip does not replicate the feel of a vagina. The 'frustration' will also drive to go out and meet women. It will also make you sharper, wittier, more confident etc.

    It's true that I don't have the drive to get out and meet women ATM so I get your point.
