Prostate problems at 18? & Erectile Dysfunction
Posted , 6 users are following.
Hi, I am really in need of some help here - getting quite worried.
I'm 18, slim. Had blood tests come back fine recently. It's not possibly an STD.
My symptoms are as follows:
Urine stream not very fast, slow to start & dribbling - more than a year
Quite frequent urination, more than I used to - past few months
Lower abdominal aching (it's like pressure) - past few months
Erectile dysfunction (even when on my own) - about 3 months
Testicular pain (had them checked, apparently ok) - past month
I've also noticed some sort of lump in the scrotum above the left testicle, could be a varicocele or maybe epididymitis - but the urologist didn't mention (or notice) it after checking.
Urine has been checked twice in the past year with no issues. Finally got referred to a urologist and saw them the other day, prostate was checked but he couldn't identify anything. I'm about to move so he was unable to send me for tests so he's referring me to what will be my local hospital to have tests done, but I am very worried about it.
I don't think ED is psychological as I have been through periods where I am not stressed in the slightest (e.g. holiday) yet the problem was still there. I am also pretty happy usually, until this became a problem!
I've noticed very recently that I have been having more bowel movements than usual, any reason for this?
I'm worried it may be prostatitis, but I am not sure. I don't know whether all of the symptoms are related, any ideas?

As to the ED, please remember that the best way to get ED is to worry about it. That said, unless you are going on your honeymoon soon, it looks like you will be best served by waiting for those medical results before you panic.
