Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have not taken any consultation yet. Me and my wife are in a marital relationship for the past many years. We tried intercourse many times but it seems my penis is large in size for her vagina so it is a little difficult for me to penetrate penis into her vagina, and sometimes my penis do not get erect and it does not stay in an erect position for more than a minute. So, I have two issues. Firstly, I lost the desire for sex, and secondly my penis does not get erect for more than a minute.

Please help.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Lack of experience might be the reason, why you are facing this problem. Stress in your mind and your partner's mind is further propagating the problem. When you are finding it difficult to penetrate, then you are losing the erection in anticipation. I would suggest you to use good lubrication during sex.

  1. Apply the lubricant over the vaginal opening and over your penis during intercourse, and this will help in easy penetration.
  2. Spend more time in foreplay and you will see improvement.
  3. If this does not help then in that case you can use any good drug like Tadalafil or Sildenafil (phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors), and that can help to improve your confidence.
  4. Try to have intercourse in the missionary position and ask your wife to guide you to the vaginal opening.
  5. Kindly consult a specialist, talk with them, and take medicines with their concern.

I hope this will help you regarding your concern.

Thanks and regards.
