If you find the answer to this, share it with me. I've really had problem with this since implantation. Maybe for me it's partially psychological. I think I just need to go out and have sex the first time, I haven't yet since I got the thing put in, I guess I am having some anxiety about how it will go, will the other person know, what will they think, etc.

Same way you get to Carnegie Hall.

Practice.

Actually, I experienced something similar to what Oregon Strong described.

I had lost a lot of confidence in my sexual ability (aside from the inability to get and maintain an erection). I was not confident I could make the pelvic movements involved in sex. I was not even sure I would be able to guide my penis into my girl. It took several successful encounters before I became confident that everything would work. That doubt REALLY wreaked havoc on my libido/desire and willingness to initiate sex.

A more subtle effect which will probably always be with me is that, before implant and during the early years of E.D. my erections, as they became increasingly rare, I had a sense of urgency whenever an erection would appear. "Use it or lose it", or "Quick...before it melts." kind of urgency. The libidinous attitude, whether produced by libido or necessity was a spur to action. Now, with erections on demand, that sense of urgency is not there any more. We can wait until we do the dishes, or talk about the day's events. Sometimes the sexual mood wanes and we don't have sex. If I had a vanishing erection we would not put it off. With an enduring erection, we can. And sometimes do. It is an act of will that ACTS like low libido.

At least that's my feeling about the experience.

If by LIBIDO you are referring to the desire to have sex - mine is not low.
If by LIBIDO you are referring to the duration of having sex - mine is not low.
If by LIBIDO you are referring to how often you have sex - mine is not low.

If however, by LIBIDO you are referring to actually getting your rocks off -------- My LIBIDO SUCKS!

Explanation: In the past week my wife and I have made love about 4-5 times (lost count) and each time we had sessions of over an hour and bordering on 2 hours. Each session involved about 50% copulation and 40% cunnilingus and 10% felatio. I still want more and I have to wait until my wife is ready (she needs a rest every couple of days). With all of that, I didn't cum with my wife once in the past week, but GOD I really wanted to. To make matters worse, I tried to finish each time and on a couple of occasions I actually had to give up and go to sleep for the night.

The easy answer is - "I'M OVER-SEXED" and I need to give it a rest so I can cum sooner, but D A M N ! I just don't want to give it a rest. I do have low-normal T levels (last time checked) and fixing that would probably go a long way to fixing my one remaining sexual issue...

Dang man you are at only 6 weeks. It probably still hurts. Sex at 6 weeks was not great and I also was apprehensive. Give it a few more weeks at home with 5 finger Mary. Then go find a girl, have a few drinks and just tell her you have a brand new bionic dick that will stay hard for hours and does she want to be the first. She will take it from there if she is in the mood. A girl that wants to fuck wants a confident man.

My libido died after my stroke - plummeted from way high to non-existent. Tried for years to find a solution, but none was ever found - not even a little bit. Seems like when your brainstem gets rewired there's not much you can do about it.
