Where can this study be found?

Below is one of the side effects described for Tamoxifen in Wikipedia:

Bone

A beneficial side effect of tamoxifen is that it prevents bone loss by acting as an estrogen receptor agonist (i.e., mimicking the effects of estrogen) in this cell type. Therefore, by inhibiting osteoclasts, it prevents osteoporosis.[32][33] When tamoxifen was launched as a drug, it was thought that tamoxifen would act as an estrogen receptor antagonist in all tissue, including bone, and therefore it was feared that it would contribute to osteoporosis. It was therefore very surprising that the opposite effect was observed clinically. Hence tamoxifen's tissue selective action directly led to the formulation of the concept of selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs).[34] In contrast tamoxifen appears to be associated with bone loss in premenopausal women who continue to menstruate after adjuvant chemotherapy.[35]

Sort of....I have seen a chastity device that is 2 rings back to back, with about a 45 deg offset between them. One has a small v shaped spike that sticks out. The idea is that you wear it on your flacid cock and because it puts and keep a sharp bend in your soft cock, it prevents it from filling up with blood and prevents a hard on.

The v shaped part keeps the rings from slipping off, when soft by diging in a little. I dont know how well it works, but folding your soft cock over sharp enough should prevent it from filling. Check out some of the BnD sites that sell toys, leather and rubber- you should find the device.

If you want to stop erections just have 3 open heart surgeries.take heart meds and get old.Works every time.

Mouse, That was funny. I'm sure it works every time too.

I don't use chastity devices. I just tuck my cock back into itself, inside my body. Put on some real tight underwears, or use regular jockey type and roll it into a tight g-string.

The cock being tucked inside has the added padding of flesh in front that dulls any touch or stimulation.

I somehow started doing that as a teenager (around 13 or so, some 40 yrs ago). During those times, I'd frequently wake up with really painful erections trying to get out. The penis would have been so sore even after releasing it, I'd have to massage it. Unless I massage to cumming, which I usually avoid, it'd have a difficult time going soft enough to be tucked back in.

Over the yrs, of course, those erections get fewer and weaker. But even just a few yrs ago, before starting Androcur, I'd still get waken up once in a while by the painful erections.

Now after 4 yrs of Androcur, I no longer have erections and can finally get a full night sleep ... at least not from these erections.

I can lay in bed with my wife just enjoying her company then my penis decides it needs to get some attention and ruins the moment. I am getting sick of the feelings I get when I get erect and I know sex is not going to happen due to my wife's lack of sex drive.

Does anyone know of any safe and reliable methods a man can use to stop all erections?

As usual, thanks in advance for your help.

Hoosierdad.

i don't know if you have been helped by the responses, but i thought i might suggest a chastity device such as the CB6000S or the Bird Cage Short. The short version does not allow any room for erections. A little tight initially for most, they will confine you very effectively. Erections will occur frequently initially, but I found they decrease over time. The intensity deminishes first followed by a flaccid penis. If we don't stimulate the cock it tends to lose its ability to accumulate blood and expand.

I started taking 20mg of Tamoxifen again, after having taken it with Siterone for about two and a half years. Then I stopped when I began doing alcohol injections. I've read that while lowering libido, it also increases one's testosterone level. I wonder how this can be. Does anyone know? I haven't noticed any change since being on Tamoxifen, except, perhaps, some additional energy.

I had to maintain Tamoxifen to keep my breast growth in check. Wonder if you might have experienced the same.

I read the same thing about some increase in testosterone. I never understood it, nor did I feel it per se. But I think the same source indicated that the med does not cause the same side effects in every person.

I just upped Tamoxifen from 10 mg/day to 20, and if anything, I felt even less libido.
