weird veins on penis

dallas101346 · Jan 26, 2015

Has anyone ever had this happen? Since starting TRT I have had new veins on my penis, any idea what can cause this?

Nelson Vergel · Jan 26, 2015

I have had this. They come and go and probably caused by sexual activity that went longer than usual. I am sure other guys can chime in and comment on their experience.

Thanks nelson. Always good to hear from a doctor. Maybe I will just refrain from any masterbate on or sex. I am also going to see a urologist about some pain under my scrotum.

I am not a doctor

Just a guy with 20+ years of experience in TRT and health info.

Make sure your pain is not caused by a hernia or this:

In my opinion that qualifies you... more so than my endo.

It might be a thrombosis of the dorsal vein of the penis (Mondor's Disease). It is a fairly rare and benign condition that usually goes away after several weeks. Anti-inflammatory agents, including aspirin, can help it go away. You can read more about it here: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2978449/

Yea thanks for the info. I showed a urologist, and they said it was normal. I don't understand how that can be normal. Never seemed to affect erections so idk. Is there a vein specialist I could talk to?

Take your urologist's advice. Besides surgery there's nothing you can do, but take an aspirin a day and wait for it to go away on its own.

Is TRT the only thing you are doing? I noticed after starting on Genes stack that a few new veins showed up. Maybe they were always there and are not just showing more. I have notice that after being on TRT for a while my viens are showing more places then they did in the past. Calfs veins popping out, veins on quads showing more, etc.. I dont have any pain from any of them. Veins on penis are much larger then before starting TRT but I am also taking other supplements that have an impact of blood flow.

dallas101346 · Jan 26, 2015

Yes TRT is the only thing I am doing. I also noticed more veins on my quads calves etc.. so maybe it just carried down to the rest of my body. They don't really bother me I suppose. My flaccid penis also hangs down quite a bit more now since TRT. Another interesting side effect.

One other random question I have. Is it usual for guys to have a very small window of E2 where they feel optimal. I swear I must have a 2-4 point range where I feel pretty good.

I noticed additional veins. 2 large ones that were probably always there but now they are more pronounced. And yes my penis is more vascular since I have been on TRT. I'm sure this varies with TRT users. I also noticed a change after starting Gene's killer stack. So this is all positive stuff. As far as your discomfort, are you saying the scrtom itself or your testicles. I know 2 things that cause testicle discomfort/pain. This is from my own experience. When mine started shrinking I felt discomfort. Also years ago I noticed I was getting discomfort and the urologist had no explanation. This was before the shrinkage. I read on a few sites that when sleeping you could be applying quite a bit of pressure on your testicles when sleeping on your side. Also pants that are not allowing ball movement. To prove this out I started wearing loser pants and it helped but the real fix was wearing a pair of underwear that holds your testicles away so your legs won't crush them. Then all my discomfort went away.

Interesting, thanks for this. I am still going to have a Urologist rule out any real issue with something like prostatis or an STD.

SuperDutyDave · Jan 28, 2015

I am guessing a lot of Genes stack (which I take too) is designed to encourage blood flow. As such I'm sure it would show in areas such as that Honestly its what the stack is trying to achieve

Unless there is pain or some other malady I would sweat it. Long as its all working good you're farther ahead then many of us

I dnot take genes stack. Wouldn't 5 mg of cialis a day be bad for someone who is 30?

Or is cialis in general pretty safe?

Cialis, like every substance, has desired effects and the (so-called) side-effects. It is used by countless men with excellent results. Have you discussed erectile meds with your doctor?
