Need Advice Or Erectile Dysfunction

Thanks for posting your query.
Erectile functions are affected by multiple factors - both organic and psychological. Urologist is an ideal person who can investigate for organic causes. You may need battery of test - blood test, ultrasound scans, doppler study, neurological assessment, etc to identify the cause.
If no organic causes is found perhaps lifestyle modifications will be necessary. Anxiety is found as the cause most often. De-stressing measures like exercise, particularly aerobic exercise is an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction.
Apart from this, good couple intimacy, quiting smoking (if any) is the necessary to reduce the problem.
A few medical drugs such as phosphodiesterase inhibitors / alprostadil have been used for the treatment. You may get them prescribed by a doctor if none of the above measures are successful in treating the problem. Both oral medications as well as injections are available to help in maintaining the erection. Your physician will help you in choosing the best agent for you after examining you to rule out the contraindicating factors.
When pharmacological methods fail, a purpose-designed external vacuum pump can be used to attain erection, with a separate compression ring fitted to the penis to maintain it.

In your case anxiety seems to be the most probable cause. You also need to look into issues with your wife. I would suggest that you try and strengthen your relationship with your wife. Try to strengthen your emotional bond and try and connect at different levels. Intimacy also helps in this regard. Try to indulge in a long foreplay and try to communicate freely with your wife.
Taking ashwagandha will also be helpful.
Hope my answer is helpful.

Right now i do not feel that any medicines are needed as you are having normal erections with your male friends. Increasing the intimacy and trying to relax yourself will be helpful. You can take tablet sildenafil 25mg to start with half an hour before the act after consulting your physician.
Take care.
Best regards.
