How is this possible ? Injections working considerably worse...

Postby mr.skin » Mon Sep 28, 2020 3:38 am

I started injecting in February, 10mcg worked pretty well, no trouble achieving erections I could even have sex only with pills the next morning.

Now Ineven use alpha blockers pde5 and the 10mcg didnt do shit. I added another 10mcg but that didnt even lead to the erection I knew...

How is ir possible that my erectile capacity detoriatrd that fast...

Actually my goal is to have a solid 2-3 hours erection.

In my experience, injections can be quite random in effect. Try it a few more times, maybe you just missed a spot.

If over a month you get consistent (bad) results, check with your doctor... No idea what might have happened. I myself have practically 50% effect at best for the last ... year or so. The urologists have no ACTUAL idea what might be causing it. Apparently i don't have VL so the only explanation they can think of is getting used to the drug and it not working well. I'd accept that explanation if sometimes it didn't work actually great, which it does.

Very confusing and annoying, but i guess there's not much we can do other than add cock-rings and/or pills to the whole thing.

For both of you guys, this is a CLASSIC symptom of a Pelvic Floor Disorder. When muscles are tight, they impinge on nerves and blood vessels - making erections terrible. Drugs can't work with bad blood flow. When things are not working, how much stress are you under? Stress usually = tight pelvic floor = bad erections.
Any urinary issues? Frequency, stop/start, thin stream, dribbling at the end, urgency, weird pains, tender perineum, etc.

That's pretty normal with injectables. If you miss the proper spot to inject little or no erection. Once you start an injectable you will need to increase the dosage as needed. If you get to a very high dose it's time to talk to your doctor.
When I used Trimix it worked for a couple of years then the dosage I was up to left me with pain for a couple of days. Moved up to Quadmix and the first few doses were small for a good erection. Before I finished the first fill my dosage was back up again. Next fill sometimes it would work, sometimes not and the dosage was causing pain again. That's when it was time to talk about an implant.

No I got an erection with the first 10mcg but it collapsed.

After 3 years of great 1.5 to 2 hour erections with 15 units of Trimix, the effectiveness started to wane and over the next 12 months I had to increase the dose to 70 units and increased the strength two times until the best I could generate was a nice semi. Now, a VED is the only way I con generate a decent erection.
