Brief Answer:
it is normal phenomenon, do not think much about the same

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

When man cannot do successful intercourse most of the times(more than 80%) for 6 months duration erectile dysfunction (ED) can be diagnosed.

Sometime due to fatigue, lack of mood, situational problem or environmental changes man can fail in sex. It is normal phenomenon.It is not permanent problem.

However when this failure makes person apprehensive about erection, sex life is affected. This is called performance anxiety. After such failure when person actively thinks about erection or success of intercourse during sex his mind is likely diverted to such thoughts. For constant erection continuous exciting/romantic/erotic feelings should be there in mind. If mind diverted to concern about erection, erection would not be possible.

So first of all no need to think or become worried about such occasional failure. While doing sex try to enjoy it the most and do not pay conscious attention to erection.

There are some natural lifestyle measures which help to improve blood flow to penis and overall sexual performance.

- The most important factor is healthy heart. Blood is pumped in to body by heart. So regular exercise and avoidance of fatty fast food are important measures to prevent heart disease. Regular walking, swimming or running overall improves blood flow to whole body circulation including penis and keep the mind fresh.You are young. If you make such practice in this young age, it would be beneficial for your overall health.

- Good healthy food is also an important aspect. Bananas, Garlic, dry fruits(they contains vitamins), eggs, cow milk, cow butter are good food which may help in erectile dysfunction.

- Avoid smoking and alcohol. Low amount of alcohol can help in increasing blood flow but more amount can cause opposite effects. So better to avoid the same.


Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further.
