Has anyone out there survived their husbands impotence???

I am a male but did he ever do a blood test for testastrone?
I was alittle depressed once and my testastrone levels went down where the doctor had to give me some of this AndroGel to rub on my arms or stomach. It's a gel that quickly evaporates but you should Not touch it and have him wash his hands before touching you bcs it will go thru ur skin.
otherwise I do not know much about that?
If he is a little depresses have him take St,John's Worth and Not any of those killer meds the doctor give you like candy ....
All anti depressants have pages after pages of side effects mostly serious ones like Death!?
yet they give you free samples but when it comes to pain medications the doctors disappear?

cant figure that one out??

My husbands Testerone level is in the low 300's and he's 52 years old. He is on blood pressure lowering medication. He was given Androgel early in 2003 and stopped using it after a while. It did work minimally for a while - it added to his minimal erections. Now he has absolutely no sexuality at all. He has no interest in me sexually. I't like we are best friends. He said he tells himself not to start anything he can't complete. He also feels it's unfair to ask him to pleasure me when he really has no interest at all. He is going to see a urologist Nov. 15. He was very depressed early last year d/t his mother's death but seems much better now at least with that.

Hope,

Both deal with lack of sexual desire. I also suggest that your husband have a prostate test to determine if he has a medical problem.This test is very important especially since you mention his age. GO NOW, it is that important.
Please tell him that you can be intimate in touching and ways other than penetration.
Stay well,
