Hello,

I am just looking to introduce myself and am hoping to get my sex life back on track. I am just entering my 6th decade of life and always had an active sex life until 2 years ago and have had various erection issues and no intimacy for the past two years. Looking to find out what options might exist beyond Viagra, Cialis, etc. whose side effects are more a negative for me.

I also take synthroid(for thyroid) and lipitor daily. Have been on synthroid for 15+ years, so that doesn't impact ED issues it would seem. Don't know if lipitor may be impacting reaction though.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Welcome to FT! My first suggestion to you would be to diagnose the problem. Remember, ED is a symptom of some other issue. Treating the casue is always better than bandaging the symptom. Start with your GP and then include a urologist. You may have already done this, but it's not readily apparent from your post.

Best wishes for hard times.
