Does anyone else struggle with ED once they put a condom on?
I can get hard without it but once i put it on i go limp. Im not sure if its the physical restriction and tightness of it or if its happened so many times that its now a mental anxiety.
Its tearing me apart because i know my girlfriend is disappointed when we get so close to having sex than it stops at the crucial moment. We even tried kissing while its on and i couldnt get my erection back.
I feel like everything has to be perfect for sex to happen and its very draining. Any tips? Ive tried practicing putting it on alone and familiarizing myself with it but im still struggling
Maybe it is to tight and pushes the blood back. Maybe it is to thick and you do not feel enough. So maybe a larger and thinner condom might work. If you both would do a positive STI screening with no indications and she uses the pill or a anything similar, you could also do it without a condom.
Measure your erected dicks circumference and look up the correct sizes. I had the same problem because standard condoms were too small. Now its perfectly fine and I even somewhat like the feeling of it on, but you will feel less during penetration unfortunately. The thinner the better in this regard.
Try masturbating with a condom on. It might feel weird, but it should not feel uncomfortable.
It’s 100% mental bro.
A heap of us have this.
It makes zero sense
Anxiety my friend. It’s thought pattern in your head.
I used to have this issue too especially when I first started having sex for first time.
What I found works if I let my partner put it on me while kissing in the mood. If your partner can put on the condom I think better chance of it not getting into your head.
Putting condoms on suck if you’re not used to it . Try different kinds/ brands and practice putting it on. I found SKYN brand condoms work best for me.
