Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for choosing HCM.
The fact that you are taking venlafaxine tells me that you have significant depressive disorder or anxiety disorder. I need to know the details of the symptoms.
You ED can be due to either of these or due to reduced testosterone level. Please tell me all the symptoms. I don't think that doctor has caused any damage to penis, so it may not be related. I need to look at the ultrasound report of KUB as well and urine report.
