Brief Answer:
Psychological ED.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.
I can understand your concern.
Your blood pressure is normal. Don't worry about that as a cause of erectile dysfunction.
If you are having erections during masturbation, then the organic causes of ED are ruled.
The only reason for your ED, if any , appears to be excessive concerns/anxiety about it.
Still to rule out any organic/vascular cause of it, you can go for colour Doppler ultrasound of penis. If it come out to be normal, then you should not worry. Provided, you do not any history of diabetes, increased cholesterol levels.
Loss of early morning erections is not a confirmatory symptom of organic cause of ED.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.
