My boyfriend is in his mid 40's Up until he had to take blood pressure med. for a short while his erection was large and wonderful. Although he is off the meds there is hardly anything there. Sex is still good, considering... I don't know if it is me or if I should say something to him. Would viagra would help? I don't want to give him a complex yet I need more. Help!

Hi there, you are not very specific here. How long since he was on medication? Is he not hard enough anymore or what? I am not a doctor, however if he is of the medication everything should go back to normal after a few weeks.

He was on and then off the meds over a year ago. It was for high blood pressure and is no longer a problem. Everything is just smaller! Not as hard, barely enough, and smaller. I am wondering if people go on this drug more as a recreation drug yet it would help him. I have talked to my DR. and she said she won't do anything until he comes in and talks to her. As if that is going to happen anytime soon! I don't know how to approach it with him without hurting him? Any male advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi LadyAnne
Sorry about the sound of my last reply, I still wanted to edit it but lost the connection. I have never heard of medication causing a decrease in size and I am not really familiar with this specific issue.
Well if you are going to mention it to him, instead of focusing on the size , which would be really embarissing to him, rather inform him that it is not as hard as it used to be. That is fairly common and against that there are various medications , such as Viagra and injections.
They are all quite save if used properly under the supervision of a doctor. Preferably not a general doctor but a specalist. I remember reading that if a penis did shrink, the injections have been reported to cause a bigger errection and if I recall correctly reverse some of the decrease. (The injections can cause scaring and pyronise disease in some individuals if used over several years. The docotor will inform him about this risk. ) The correct dose for your boyfriend MUST be tested by a doctor. So don't borrow something from a friend and inject it - that could cause a prolonged erection and then he needs an implant.
Well aside from that , vacuum pumps can increase size, but ony temporary, for a day or two- however in this case they might reverse some of the effects of the medication again : please follow proper instructions.
Does you boyfriend take any other drugs? E.g. excess Testosterone can also cause the Penis and the testicles to shrink. Are his testicles also smaller?
