Re: Does Depression lead to ED?
Just a bit of personal experience... Have been treated for depression for over 30 years. The SSRI meds did decrease my libido and eventually led to ED. However, about three years ago, my psych and I weaned me away from two antidepressants, Seroquel and Paroxetine. When the Paroxetine finally exited ...

Re: Should I get a pump?
+1 for the Encore Impo-Aid pump (battery version) with associated constriction rings. Have used one for years. Have various sizes of rings. Use coconut oil lube. Keep pubic hair trimmed to ensure tight seal and easier removal of ring. After 30 minutes of use, remove the ring, wait 5 minutes, then re...

Re: Your Prostate
Have not had a prostate for the last 20 years. Sometimes I miss not having semen, but on the other hand, there is less mess!

Re: First time
Just to add couple of points: I rub some lubricant gel on the end of the VED tube before starting. The gel, being thicker, helps form a seal against my groin. Also, I utilize the silicone constriction rings that come with the Encore Impo-Aid pump. I avoid using a silicone base lube because it will d...

Re: What cock ring do you recommend
I have (only) used the elastic cock (constriction) rings that come with the Encore Impo-Aid VED units. They come in various sizes and I use different sizes at different times. One point I learned: I do not used a silicone lubricant with these rings, as they are made out of silicone and the silicone ...

Re: Recommended pump
+1 for the battery powered Encore Impo-Aid. I have several sizes of their elastic rings. It helps if I keep my pubes trimmed down so as to facilitate a tight vacuum seal when pumping. It does not have a vacuum gauge, but by experience I know about (can feel) the right amount of vacuum. I often leave...

Re: New to pumping
I have used a VED for several years to counteract my ED. My sense is that, size-wise, I have not lost anything, and may have gained some length and girth. But I do not have a good baseline so am not sure of specifics. As far as damage goes, you have to experiment and start gently, work up to where i...

Re: Recommend a vacuum erection device
I do not have an implant, but I have used the Encore Impo-Aid for several years. Bought it from https://www.adwdiabetes.com/category/va ... ion-device. Currently runs about $108 for the battery operated pump which is the one I use. It has worked well for me.

I had to chuckle -- I thought I was the only one to draw 'achievement lines' on my transparent penis pump.

Re: ED caused by medicines
I suffer from Atrial Fibulation and chronic high blood pressure. My cardiologist and electro physiologist have proscribed a variety of medicines that effectively treat both my AFib and my blood pressure. Physically I feel fine, get regular exercise and have no adverse effects from the meds with the...
