More Info
It sounds like you're experiencing a complex set of issues related to your sexual health and sensitivity, particularly concerning your penis and the sensations associated with it. Let's break down your questions and concerns systematically.
Q1: Is the slow erection and poor hardness due to frequent masturbation?
Frequent masturbation, especially if done in a way that involves excessive force or unusual techniques, can lead to temporary changes in erectile function. This might include difficulty achieving a full erection or maintaining hardness. Over time, if the body becomes accustomed to certain stimuli, it may require more intense or specific forms of stimulation to achieve the same level of arousal. This is sometimes referred to as "desensitization." If you find that your erections are not as firm as they used to be, it could be a combination of physical factors (like the techniques used) and psychological factors (like anxiety or performance pressure).
Q2: Could the lack of sensation in the glans be due to nerve damage from your previous practices?
Yes, it is possible that the methods you used, such as burning or using electrical devices, could have caused some nerve damage or desensitization in the glans (the head of the penis). The glans is rich in nerve endings, and any trauma to this area can lead to changes in sensitivity. If you have noticed a significant reduction in sensation, it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional who specializes in sexual health or urology. They can provide a thorough examination and help determine if there is any lasting damage.
Q3: Is the difficulty in ejaculation and the need for prolonged stimulation indicative of delayed ejaculation?
Yes, the symptoms you describe, such as needing to stimulate for a long time to achieve ejaculation, can be indicative of delayed ejaculation. This condition can be caused by a variety of factors, including psychological issues, physical changes, or even the habits you've developed over time. If you find that you are only able to ejaculate under certain conditions (like using a specific technique), this could be a sign that your body has adapted to those conditions.
Q4: Is the hardness experienced during electrical stimulation a psychological issue?
The response you describe—where the penis becomes very hard during electrical stimulation—could indeed have a psychological component. The brain plays a significant role in sexual arousal and response. If you associate certain stimuli (like electrical stimulation) with pleasure, your body may respond more vigorously to those stimuli. However, relying on such methods can lead to further desensitization and may complicate your sexual health in the long run.
Additional Considerations
Given the complexity of your situation, it is crucial to approach this with care. Here are some recommendations:
1. Consult a Specialist: While it may be uncomfortable, seeing a urologist or a sexual health specialist is essential. They can provide a safe space to discuss your concerns and offer appropriate treatments or therapies.
2. Avoid Harmful Practices: It’s important to refrain from using potentially harmful methods of stimulation, such as burning or electrical devices. These can cause lasting damage and lead to more significant issues.
3. Consider Psychological Factors: If anxiety or stress is affecting your sexual health, consider speaking to a mental health professional. They can help address any underlying psychological issues that may be contributing to your symptoms.
4. Explore Healthy Sexual Practices: Focus on developing a healthy sexual routine that prioritizes your well-being. This may include exploring different forms of stimulation that do not involve harm and finding ways to enhance intimacy with a partner.
5. Educate Yourself: Understanding your body and sexual health can empower you to make informed decisions. Consider reading reputable sources or speaking with professionals about sexual health.
In conclusion, while it may feel daunting to discuss these issues, seeking professional help is the best course of action. Your sexual health is an important aspect of your overall well-being, and addressing these concerns early can lead to better outcomes in the future.
