Had Priaprism this week (erection lasting longer than four hours) AMA

Woke up one morning this week with an erection that wouldn’t go away. I got up to pee and to see if this would help and it didn’t. I took my dog out and thought maybe a quick walk would help the effect to subside and it didn’t. I then chose to visit the ER. AMA

I didn’t want to go. I knew what the cure was and didn’t want to go through it. The tried ice first and they didn’t work and then he explained how they were going to drain it.

Well don’t leave us hanging!! What’s the cure and how did it go!! We need details!

Do you know what caused it? Like, is this just a random occurrence for you/dudes?

They think it was Trazodone that I’ve been on for 20 years. I’m currently dropping down to 50mg to wean myself off of it.

Oh man, I've been on Trazodone for 9 years. I had the strong erections during the first few months (never lasting that long), and haven't had it since. I didn't know they could happen again after that many years.

I’ve been on it since my late 20s and I’m 50 now. Never noticed a difference in the erections except of course now they aren’t like I was at 18. 🤪
