"Fat" erection VS "thin" erection?

‘Coz’?

Short for ‘bikoz’.

Opinions? :)

Guys?

I`m starting with 5 mg Cialis ED now for one week. Plan on using it EOD or 2,5 mg ED after that. I have to pay out of my pocket and it is EXPENSIVE, unless I can order outside the borders and still be able to use my receipt.

Thank god now I know i’m not alone. I started a thread like this maybe 2 months and nobody that answered shared my experiences. Only people I knew that had this problem were me and my Closest bud. I feel a bit more “Normal” now lol.

Not any wiser? Any theory on what it is? Related to libido?

For me I would not mind if it was the exception and not the rule, but since it is the opposite, I`m not happy. :)

I (think) I kinda get what you’re describing. If so, I reckon it’s normal and to do with how aroused you are. I can have a full erection, but feel nowhere near to cumming. At this point it does kinda feel “thinner”. But, once I’m at a heightened level of arousal everything feels fatter, fuller and more sensitive. This would explain why morning woods feel thinner, since you aren’t really highly aroused at that point.

Although I’ve experienced better and worse erections, I can’t say I’ve ever experienced a thinner erection independent of hardness.

The few times I’ve tried Cialis (36 hour type, rather than daily use), I noticed nice enhancement of flaccid girth and hang - presumably from inhibition of NO breakdown and resulting vasodilation, but I’m not sure how this translates to erect girth, except by increasing hardness. I’ll be curious to hear what you think after some experience with the daily use.

Daily use of Cialis did not do anything for me.

New test results came back and cortisol in urine and saliva was outside the range. Marginally so with evening saliva, significantly so with cortisol in urine over 24 hours. Hopefully, I can finally get some answers.

High cortisol explain my symptoms and it includes impotence (not that severe with me, far from it). With high cortisol, the body is in an agitated state and definitely not relaxed, something I suppose affects erections as well.

:)

Renholder, how much outside the range was cortisol ? Can you write the test results ? I’m interested in finding more about this. I also noticed this happening, actually I started a thread like this about 2 years ago, with no answers .For me hardness is not a clear indicator of fullness . Also a member said that he had sex with a new girl and noticed a thinner erection. So you made a good judgement blaming cortisol as a negative factor in this.

This makes sense to me as far as first date stress but not sure why cortisol levels would be higher after a sleep ?

Ranges in parantheses.

Free cortisol in urine = 380 nmol/24 hours (45-272).
Serum cortisol in blood 08:30 AM 1034 nmol/l (138-690)
Saliva cortisol 08:30 AM 16,6 nmol/l (4,0-27,0)
Saliva cortisol 10:00 PM 6,6 nmol/l (<6,0)

Erection and libido problems is only one among many symptoms I have, but high cortisol could actually explain it.

I am cutting all coffee, replacing it with green tea (moderate amounts as there is still caffeine) and starting to use a supplement called phosphatydil serine which is supposed to decrease cortisol levels.

Very excited about this.

Are you referring to me or normal people?

In a healthy person, cortisol is always highest in the morning and then tapers off throughout the day until it`s lowest at bed time. It could explain if people experience thinner erections in the morning, but I don`t know if this is a regular phenomenon. Anyway, there is a difference between normally high levels in the morning and abnormally high levels 24/7.

Cortisol is good for the body. Too much is not. And too little is no fun either.

:)

I have the same thing with my boners. Cortisol could definitely do it, along with hydration!

No improvement in symptoms after quitting coffee and caffeine. Actually been feeling quite lethargic for the last two days.

However, my flaccid is on average hanging better and is more girthy. Surprised me today after taking off my trousers after the gym and seeing how nice it hung.
