[QUOTE="ResearchIt, post: 219911, member: 43366"] Thanks for that feedback, very helpful! It feels better to know we are all in the same boat eventually, I'm just surprised my boat arrived earlier than I expected given my health! I have a medical grade blood pressure machine at home to measure it reguarly, and it always comes back normal, like 100-120/70-80 type range. My partner is very attractive and she and I have a great relationship so no issues there. I don't think the diminished erections are psychological as I am very relaxed about sex, even the occasions when things aren't working great lol. In addition, my nocturnal and morning erections are effected, which I think maybe means it is more physiological than psychological. I don't spend any time on porn, I prefer real life :) Thyroid and Cortisol have been checked multiple times and levels are good I think. FSH is 3.5, LH 4.5, TSH 1.5, Free T3 3.9, Free T4 1.3, Cortisol(AM) 7.5 I appreciate your thoughts on T treatment. My range recently is usually 600-800. I might consider it if it brought me back to being 30 again this way, but it sounds like that probably isn't the case for me. I respond very well to PDE-5 inhibitors, even an eighth or a tenth of a standard dose does the trick, but I was hoping to phsycially fix whatever changed in me. Your comments about artery walls stiffening up even with decent blood flow, I have thought about that as well and wonder if might be the issue. Or maybe my natural nitric oxide production down there slightly degraded for some reason. I've thought perhaps real medical grade shockwave therapy might cause regeneration that would help with that. But, I wanted to rule out any other hormonal or chemical causes before trying that treatment. If I do the treatment, I'll let you guys know how that goes. Are there any neurotransmitter tests that are useful? Is Rigiscan testing to measure nocturnal erections productive? I am probably being too thorough and careful, especially given how my symptoms might be considered minor by some, but any other ideas about tests that could be done to isolate what changed in me? Given my age I just would like to be thorough, proactive, and preventative about it if there is a way. Thanks so much! [/QUOTE]
