Is there any link of excessive urination with ED & PE?

Postby southpaw » Mon Mar 18, 2024 5:42 am

Hi. I am 33 years male. Suffering from ED for last 2 years and PE since teenage. I also have very weak bladder and excessive urination has been my issue since childhood. I feel the urge to pee almost every 1 15-20 mins if i have taken even 1 glass of water. The more cold the weather is, the more i need to pee.

Is there any link between excessive urination and PE, ED?

Excessive urination can indicate diabetes. There are bladder meds available that help retention.
A visit to a urologist would answer these questions.

Could be. People have two urethral sphincters. One is pretty much involuntary, at the base of the bladder. The other is down at the bottom of the pelvic floor and is partially able to be controlled voluntarily. My upper one was removed along with my prostate late last year and I have been trying to train my other one with pelvic floor exercises. Most of those exercises are the well-known Kegel exercises. Often thought of as "women's exercises" to strengthen both the urethral sphincter and the vaginal sphincter, the exercises are useful for men who have difficulty with urinary control.

Since my surgery (and total incontinence) I have been exercising those Kegel muscles and also learned that breathing has a lot to do with incontinence, too. If your breathing puts pressure downward on your bladder, you put pressure on it and that does not help incontinence. Physical therapists have training in determining what muscles need strengthening and breathing to adjust to fix this. They have an impressive bag of tricks (therapeutic tools).

It is worthy of note that, since you have had this a long time, that you may have been born with a congenitally weak pelvic floor. Talk to a urologist about it. There are things you can do to fix that.

Lastly, properly toned pelvic floor (Kegel) muscles can REALLY help with sexual control and strengthening orgasms and ejaculation.

Don't wait.

Edited: After reading Never_Enough's post, I changed the wording in my penultimate sentence from "strong" to "properly toned". The ability to contract the muscles and the ability to relax the muscles are both essential.

Be Very careful doing kegels.

I have pelvic floor dysfunction that causes my ED, and urinary symptoms, although not as frequent as yours.

Kegels are disastrous if you have a tight pelvic floor, instead you need to do reverse kegels stretches and practice belly breathing. Certain medications can help too depending on the diagnosis.

Thanks. Lifelong PE and excessive urination may be due to weak pelvic flour since childhood or birth.
I will definitely try Kegels.
However, my penis head is also very sensitive upto the point that it hurts when stimulated too much. This penis head issue is came with my ED.
