Suggest Treatment For Erectile Dysfunction
Question: Hi,
I am having problems with penis erection since one week. I am having regular sex for almost 6 months (4-5 times a week). I used to have erection issues very rarely in the last 6 months. However, since one week I am unable to get proper erection.
Nothing has changed since a week in my lifestyle.
I am not under any medication.
I am not under stress or depression.
I love my partner.
I have been working out in gym from a month. I am sure working out is not a cause for my problem.
I have started taking whey proteins since 2 weeks. I am not sure if this is the reason. However, I have stopped it for past 3 days but still I fail to get an erection.
Is this problem normal and does it occur occassionally. I am worried. Kindly reply.
