Viagra and TTC

[Bunnygirlie]

Hi

Anybody had any experience with using little blue bills for a little boost for OH when TTC?

You only need them if he has erection difficulties. They don't boost potency.

I suppose it might help if you need/want to shag more frequently than his typical recovery time. but if he's having erection problems, perhaps he needs to see the doctor about his general health and look for underlying causes. Does he get an adequate morning horn?

Marking my place and waiting for replies....., DH has been having problems too and we are also thinking of trying Viagra too.

Not directly related to pills but in our case we came to the conclusion that its all about quality & qty as opposed to frequency. So ease off or better still take a break for a week or so beforehand.

Hubby has lost his mojo! Now he is so worried about it (and stressing about disappointing me I think) he doesn't even get morning glory. Last couple of months we have only managed to DTD twice and that is nit gonna get me pg!
This is 10th month of TTC so I just think the pressure of performing is getting to him.

Bunny I completely understand what you are saying. We've been TTC, now onto our 3rd cycle and have only DTD twice in the last 2 cycles!

It's so tough, we have been together 7 years now and our libidos have reduced a lot since the first few years!

Yep I fully understand what you mean. My DH and I have been together 8.5 years. We are finding that tiredness is a killer!

Maybe we are just getting bored with each other lol

It's worth considering looking at his general health. We had similar and it turned out that DH had an underlying health problem causing low testosterone which resulted in loss of libido and poor sperm count. He also tended to lose erections during or struggle to climax. Since he's been treated those issues resolved (I'm now pregnant and he complains we don't do it enough!).

To take the pressure off, I recommend not telling him when you think you're fertile and introducing massage. Massage is great because its relaxing and stimulating because of the skin to skin contact. We agreed that massage did not automatically result in sex, but it often led to sex. Just make sure you wash off massage oil before you touch any private parts!

Thanks having and congrats!!!

Hubby seems generally healthy but does have his jizz in a cup test on Friday so we will see what that turns up. I think he has just lost his confidence which is horrid and I don't think I make it easier when it doesn't happen and get upset.

I think I need to join here too. Dtd can be so bloody frustrating. He gets all sorted out and ready to go, but seems to lose it during entry with all the fiddling round. Tried levistra which is like Viagra and that worked wonders so did manage to dtd this cycle, but only twice. Really gets me down sometimes.

Haves little faith baby....could you tell us what the underlying health condition was. I don't know how I can get DH to the doctors. He seems healthy generally but has low sex drive and struggles to get a really strong erection.

My DH had a hyperprolactinoma...sounds technical yes? Basically his SA's were not good, no rapids at all. Most very dozy! Blood tests showed he had low testosterone and high prolactin. A scan of his head showed a growth on his pituitary (not cancerous!). This growth secretes large amounts of the hormone prolactin which in turn depletes testosterone and so stopped a fella producing good sperm. They occur in women too and generally stop ovulation.

His symptoms were already apparent but not clearly diagnosed (I'm not sure that it would have been picked up if we weren't struggling with fertility). He had bad anxiety, sleeplessness, low energy and low sex drive. One other weird symptom he had was a burning sensation in his man parts...urine dips were always negative. This has eased since he got treated. DH was being treated for anxiety resulting in depression but anti-depressants didn't make a huge difference. Treating the underlying cause did :)

Thanks. We've only just stated trying so won't know for a while. I am probably being paranoid re fertility etc. the lack of sex does annoy me though...well not the lack, but the having to stop half way through and feeling unfinished and disappointed.

Thanks having guess we will see what hubby's tests show up!

Hello - does any of you ladies have an update on TTC and drugs like Viagra? We are in a similar situation and are not sure if conception is possible with the drugs. Any info is appreciated!

Thanks

Can I jump on.

We are TTC No 2, husband has always had some issues in this area but for No 1 we found that by (sorry tmi!) working him up to the point of release and just getting inside me right at the last second helped things, to the point over time he was able to go for longer and longer inside and finally just had normal sex straight off start to finish.

This time around he's having another blip and I suggested viagra but he's said no, he doesn't believe it's ED just a 'blip" and as he pointed out, we got there with No 1, so we will with No 2, been off the pill since November but actively trying since March yet have only managed to have sex/him actually cum once during ovulation so it does get a little frustrating, feels like missed opportunities each month, I'm ovulating right now but so far not managed sex

Viagra boosts their confidence but if taken too regularly can cause headaches etc. Happily I found after a few months it’s no longer needed. Conceived a week after he stopped taking it due to adverse effects!
