So here's my history.
In my 30s I went to a GP complaining of LOH(Lack of Hardon) This was before Viagra hit the scenes and before ED was a thing. He gave me a T shot. Plan A.
My mid 40s Still with LOH I tried Viagra. Plan B.
Mid 50s. Levitra, Cialis, VED. Plans C, D, E.
60s. T shot regimen, T shot w/ Viagra. Plans F,G.
Just tried Plan H. Edex. I followed instructions closely, didn't have any needle pain at all and no bruising, just a teeny spot of blood. I felt a bit of dull stinging as the syringe was emptying and a dull ache in Alfa Jr. but only got a soft engorgement . Unsatisfactory. :(
I have 7 more doses of Edex 20mcg to use up but it looks like I'm headed towards Plan I (Trimix).
Plan J : The nuclear option. Implant. 8-)

A very familiar tale of mostly woe! Only for me the LOH went away completely 5 years ago when I began injecting Edex (aka Alprostadil) do try your remaining vials!

Nice writing too. Good luck!

Was the effect comparable to what you had at the doctors office?

My uro simply wrote me a script and sent me packing. Health care is abysmal here. The uro comes to a clinic once a month from Oahu and I had to wait 6 Mos. just to see him. I feel pretty proud that I managed the needle all by my widdle self. :D

Yeah, I had to figure them out on my own too. I just had a very old school Uro (who retired shortly afterwards) and I guess he just assumed I could figure it out.

My first few attempts produced less than overwhelming results. I figure I just wasn't hitting it right. Of course I started on the Edex 10s and they were never going to work. Yeah, keep trying with the ones you have. Try throwing a cock ring into the mix. It might make enough of a difference. I frequently take a generic Viagra with the injection and for me it helps boost it although Viagra alone doesn't do anything but make me feel like I might get and erection but a feeling is as far as it gets.
