Q. I am 18 and am unable to ejaculate. I can get and maintain an erection, but I cannot achieve orgasm by either masturbation or sexual intercourse with my partner. I have spoken about this with my doctor, but he does not consider it to be a serious problem at this stage. I do get “wet dreams” where semen is released in bed at night, so my GP says that my problem is likely to be psychological rather than physical. If this is the case, what can I do about it? Please help. A. You are describing a condition called…
Q. When I ejaculate, sometimes the color is a pale yellow, sometimes dark brown, and sometimes red. There is no pain associated with ejaculation. I have been to a urologist, and he said that there was no sign of infection or anything else that he thought could cause it. He did say he thought it could be a burst blood vessel. I notice that when I am on a exercise regimen, it slowly returns to a “normal” color. What might be causing this, and how would I find out for sure? A. Your symptoms are suggestive of hematospermia — that…
Q. My husband was just told he has stones in his ejaculation duct. We had noticed a problem when we were unable to conceive because no semen came out. He had an ultrasound, and the urologist found the stones. We were told some of them were embedded and therefore cannot be removed. We are trying to get a second opinion before we proceed with surgery. Can stones like this be removed? Will we have a better chance of conceiving after surgery? A. It sounds like your doctor told your husband that no semen comes out because stones are blocking his…
Q. I am 59, and my wife and I have experienced very good sex for 40 years. A few months ago, I experienced an extreme attack of acid reflux and passed out. Our family doctor gave me Paxil and Prevacid. Now I have no erection. The doctor gave me Viagra, and it works, but I have not experienced ejaculation since I started the Paxil and Prevacid. We need help. My wife is beginning to feel that she no longer can satisfy me. I’m glad I “last” longer, but an hour (or all night) is too much! What can I do…
Q. My husband and I are both 28. We were both virgins when we married three years ago. He has always experienced delayed ejaculation even after prolonged foreplay and intercourse, which has frustrated him. Recently, I have been giving him “hand jobs” with startling results — instead of the usual one or two teaspoonfuls of ejaculate, copious amounts of a translucent liquid come out, and I am also able to give him multiple ejaculations. This surprise discharge ONLY occurs after prolonged lovemaking, followed by my hand job with lubricant. However, my husband is worried that he’s urinating on me during…
Q. I bought an over-the-counter herbal supplement called yohimbe bark for impotence. Is it safe? Are there any side effects? A. The herb yohimbe is the bark from the Pausinystalia yohimbe tree that grows in West Africa. It contains the alkaloid yohimbine, which is also available as a prescription medication. Yohimbine blocks receptors in the sympathetic nervous system and has been prescribed to treat impotence. It is also a monoamine oxidase inhibitor.

Q. I am 53 and have the general symptoms of benign prostate enlargement. A year ago my PSA was less than 4. I have been taking an over-the-counter herbal prostate pill twice a day for about two years, with no side effects. I’d like to know if it’s safe to also take a testosterone-precursor type of herbal supplement. I see several products advertised for increasing libido, but I have not seen any discussion as to the effect on the prostate. I am hesitant to consider such a pill at my age, due to my concern with prostate enlargement. A. I…
Q. Thank you for your information on the use of a pump for erectile dysfunction. My friend, age 42, had a bad construction accident and suffered spinal damage some 10 years ago. We enjoy each other sexually, and he achieves an orgasm without the pump. We only used the pump once due to pain on his part. Would Viagra help him? I have not read anything on Viagra for men with spinal injury. He is otherwise healthy and active in every other way. This is hard on him emotionally, as you can imagine. A. The erectile reflex mechanism is so…
Q. Does Viagra have any effect on sperm in a man trying to have a child? Does it affect the sperm count, mobility, etc.? A. Viagra has no known effects on sperm production, morphology (shape), motility (movement) or count. If a man has organic impotence — meaning the problem is due to a medical rather than psychological condition — then Viagra may improve the chances for achieving conception simply by restoring potency. Remember, though, that while Viagra can improve rigidity, it does not necessarily bring about ejaculation. Many men with impotence may have diabetes or other conditions that affect the…
Q. I’m a 34-year-old man. I’m in good shape, and I watch my diet. However, I’ve always had a problem of early ejaculation. I used to think it was because I was young, but it has gotten so bad that I am sometimes afraid of having sex because I may not “do the job well.” I don’t talk about it because I sometimes feel it’s just petty, but it has obviously been bothering me for some time. Do you have any suggestions? A. Let me congratulate you for sharing such a difficult situation with me. You are going to be…
