I have ED from HRT and use Viagra.
Viagra and Cialis both work similarly. You take a pill about 45 minutes before you want to have an erection. The time varies a little from person to person and there are pills online that claim to kick in in 20 minutes but I haven’t tried those.
CW discussion of sexual experiences
My ED isn’t a problem when I’m on my own, but without Viagra, I can’t maintain long enough to finish during penetration. For me, it’s 100% worth the other effects of HRT, including the other sexual ones like change in sensation. Viagra’s also made it so I can continue after I finish which wasn’t the case before.
If your normal foreplay lasts at least 45 minutes, no need for planning ahead. Otherwise, spontaneous sex is kind of out the window. I did have a talk with my partner about me surprising her with the fact that I took a pill so that it could feel more spontaneous. Just basically saying that I was fine with taking a pill and not using it and there was no pressure to have sex just because I took it. She appreciated that and it’s helped a lot.
So it may take some getting used to but I’ve found it well worth it. As long as it’s cleared with a doctor in terms of interaction with any heart meds or conditions you have, the main risk is when you have an erection that doesn’t go away for more than 4 hours or if your erection is painful, you’re supposed to go to the ER. I’ve actually had one last the entire time I slept and managed to get rid of it instead of going to the ER, but mine didn’t hurt.
CW medical procedure involving genitals
Basically they use a needle to drain the blood from your penis. And if that doesn’t work, there are surgical interventions that I’m not familiar with.
It’s rare, but it does happen.
