Hi all,
Im a 25 y/o male who’s been using porn on an almost daily basis since I was about 10. Started super early. Wasn’t having sex until high school/college where I noticed that I had a problem. Early on when I first started around 18-19 Id get an erection and start having sex but midway through id lose it. I cut back on my porn usage to maybe once every 3-4 days and that changed pretty quickly to where I could have normal sex. I noticed that if I pickup heavy porn usage the problem would come back. I’ve had multiple different partners since then. With a few I’ve taken pills and not used condoms and with that I never have any problems. Recently I’ve noticed that with heavy porn usage I’m starting to have the same problem. I’ve been cutting back and I immediately notice that I’ll get erections throughout the day. I’m getting tired of all of this but I have a partner that I’d like to continue having sex with. I’m scared if I cutout all porn then I’ll be subject to premature ejaculation. I also suffer from sleep apnea. Im not sure if my problem is caused by PIED or another medical condition. Throughout stopping and starting I’ve never experienced a “flatline” but I’d just like this problem to be solved without medication. Do you guys think this is PIED or something else?
