Thanks for the explanation. but since 2 days, I think very less errection, and its affecting my life. so just worried, if its temporary. I am also surprised with this sudden change in it. by ignoring it will it fine in few days... i am not suffering from any desease which you have mentioned. i used to go to gym regularly as well.

Hello,
I know it gives stress to a person,if he doesn't get proper erection.Thousand questions start haunting him.
In fact this feeling and constant thinking about it results in more ED.
You must understand that sex is a physical act but played at mental level.
I would advise you to completely stop thinking about it and just don't attempt a forceful sex.
Don't try for it.
Leave it for few days and start doing regular exercises.
Try doing some meditation and deep breathing exercises to relax and calm your nerves.
Don't try any medication as it may give temporary benefit but cam make you dependent on them.
Best of luck to you.
I strongly feel that this phase would pass off and you would get Your erection back
Thanks

Hello,
You must take the things lightly and not rush up the things.
Things get complicated more when you start thinking about sex every time and not seeing or feeling the erection.
It is all mind game.
I again assure you that every thing is all right.Just don't try to force the thing on you.
Wait and watch and take care of your exercises.
Relax by deep breathing.
There is no time frame for such things.
It may take even couple of weeks.
Best of luck
Thanks
