Can i doppler scan works if i was not erect ?

[vincentmh]

32 years old and hopping to get a penile implant soon : no random boners in years, no morning erections in years. can't get erect at all manually, can't have sex. pills don't work (they get me a half chub) basically i can't remember last time i had a real erection (must be years ago)
(p.s. all my blood test are great, high test, etc) + it's not a mental stress problem, it's very physical.

I finally went for a penile ultrasound exam with a top urologist in canadal. He is one of the only 3 doctors in Quebec province that performs penile implant so i figured out that he was competent. (steinberg urology in montreal)

He injected me with low dose and gave me 10 min to try to get an erection even if I told him i have not been able to get an erection manually. Even with the injection, a poor half chub is all i could do. He told me it was enough to do the exam and didnt bother to inject me again to try me to get me harder. is that weird ?! he wanted to rush the exam ?

Result of the exam and 700$ later, he said everything was fine and i had good blood flow, no leakage, and more ''in'' flow of blood than ''out'' flow. he also stated no peyronnies and did not suspect plaque in my penile veins. Also stated i have a strong femoral pulse which is supposed to be good..

I feel completely lost now, he tried to put me again on 5mg daily cialis when i already told him it,s not working. my last hope was an implant but he told me he would not performs it on me because of my young age and my good overall health. i feel hopeless now..

vincentmh, any update since you posted this ? I can't answer the question in your Subject, but, IMHO I think you need to find a urologist that treats ED. Or, if this Dr claims to treat ED, then there should be a care plan that includes a progression of steps to diagnose and treat the condition.

Ask him what the care plan is -- if he doesn't have one ask him if he can refer you to someone who treats ED.

Vincentmh,

Have you tried to see if can get an erection using a VED? If you are erect in the tube, that at least tells you that you're capable of one. Buy an cheap one to try - If you find that you can, then you might purchase a medical quality VED and use a rings.
