Dating with Erectile Dysfunction
Don’t let your erectile dysfunction get in the way of your love life. If you follow these tips, you will find that erectile dysfunction (ED) isn’t anywhere near as prohibitive to dating as you might think it is.
Conquer Performance Anxiety
If you’ve been experiencing erectile dysfunction, you may end up putting a lot of pressure on yourself to perform in the bedroom. While it’s an understandable reaction, this stress could be adding a psychological element to your ED. Try to put any fears or anxiety to the side. Even if you find that you aren’t getting the results you want, remember there are many ways to be intimate that do not always require you to maintain a strong erection.
You might even discover that if you focus more on the sexual experience and your partner’s pleasure, you end up stressing less and get an erection.
Be Honest
It really isn’t as embarrassing as you think it is. Speak with your partner to help reduce any performance anxiety. THey will most likely be understanding and may be able to help or support you with it. And if they don’t? Well, you probably don’t want a relationship with that person anyway.
Don’t forget that you may not be the only one nervous in this situation. Another plus to being honest is that your partner won’t think it’s because you don’t find them attractive.
Meds and Timing
Many men take medications to help with their erectile dysfunction. Depending on the type, dosage, and when you take them, you may not have as spontaneous an erection as you hoped. Some medications are to be taken daily whereas others are meant to be taken around an hour before sexual activity. Be mindful of your medication and how it works.
Having an ED problem does not have to prevent you from dating. Whether you are looking for more casual encounters or you are looking for “the one,” there are ways to help your erectile dysfunction. In addition to the tips above, you can take medications like Cialis and Tadalafil tablets.
Erectile dysfunction treatment like Cialis tablets and Tadalafil tablets can be obtained online in the UK from Pharmacy Planet.
