Erectile Dysfunction

Hey Tim,

Can you help a guy out?

Years of biking have left me with Erectile Dysfunction and nowhere to turn.

I tried to contact the manufacture myself with out avail. Now I am ready to fight give me direction.

H.O.

Tim's Answer


H.O.

Erectile dysfunction has many causes. From my research only a small fraction is caused by bicycle riding.

The very first thing you should do is make an appointment with your family Doctor for a full medical evaluation and a referral to a Urologist if indicated.

This should be done as soon as possible as you could have an un-diagnosed medical problem such as Heart Disease, Cancer, Diabetes, a Tumor just to name a few. It also could be something very minor, the only way to find out is to be evaluated by a medical specialist.

Should you find that bicycle riding is in fact the cause then you will need to contact a lawyer that specializes in product liability and see if you have a cause of action against the bicycle manufacturer and or the seat manufacturer.

Your wife could also have a cause of action for lack of consortium.

I’m including these links as they may give you some guidance.

I hope that this information is of help to you. Let me know the outcome.
