He hid them because he was embarrassed he uses them.

I don't have ED but take Cialis anyway because I can't go multiple times without it. My wife knows I have it but I don't usually tell her when I've taken it. Sometimes she can tell because I am super hard, and well, for some reason she seems likes it a little better than when I am regular hard. I am surprised her vagina can detect what I would think is a trivial difference.

My husband has struggled and I’m hoping he’ll get some help. He’s 68 and until recently he had no problem getting an erection and maintaining it.

OP. Shame did not come to mind since I know a lot of men and I guess women have stuff going on in this department. We have never had a conversation about it. I was trying to be sensitive and not just go in hard and assume but it is not something I have delt with before when it comes to a SO.


What's the big deal? Why not just assume physical trouble and move on? I don't even know what there is to discuss.

My DH takes ED meds. DH knows that I take hormone therapy medications. So what?

Our sex life is great. That’s the key point.

And to be clear, I don’t think a man taking ED meds should feel shame but the response on the board has been kind of harsh at times.

My wife knows I have them and take them sometimes, but I never tell her when I do. I doubt your BF is cheating (based just on that fact).

I definitely wouldn’t jump to thinking he’s cheating. I wish DH would “secretly” look into meds but his ego is there stopping him.

Also wish my hubby would consider looking into this but his ego is getting in the way.

Not necessarily. I think lots of guys hide it at first. It’s kind of a sensitive subject for us. We don’t like to admit we need help.
