What Causes Erection Problems?
Question: My dick does not stay hard for long to bed (4mins maxi), and I am seriously getting worried, as well as my girlfriend.
Brief Answer:
No need for drgs right now!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this difficulty getting the penis erect for long. Are you talking of 4minutes of vaginal penetration of 4minutes from erection to loss of erections?
Your fears and worries would only make this problem more complex. at your age, the most likely cause of this is psychological. It is conceived in the head. If there has been a recent change in how well your erections go, then we would need to look deep and understand what the possible cause is which could be stress, lack of confidence, etc. If there has been no recent change, then be calm.
For now, tell me what 4mins represent. Also, have you had any changes compared to before.
I hope this helps. I wish you well and thank you so much for using our services. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

Hi,
it's 4 mins from erection to loss of erection. Also, anytime, my girlfriend comes on top, I loose erection. When I am on her, I rarely do. It's just a new situation that started about a month ago. Also, my girl was overseas for a month and during that period, I started to masturbate, and I am still doing it, using a lubrifiant. I don't know if that might be a cause. I am trying so hard to stop masturbation, but it's hard. I can masturbate once every 2 days.

Brief Answer:
Please, try and stop masturbating!

Hi and thanks for this follow up precision.
For you to be able to get involved and last long in any sexual act, the interest and commitment must be strong and unwavering. You have simply found a different way of pleasing yourself sexually and no longer interested in having sex with your girlfriend. Unless you refocus your attention to her a means of sexual pleasure and satisfaction and not the masturbation, you would not be able to beat this problem. I would not be surprised if you enjoy masturbation than having sex with her at this time. You must work hard and get out of this.
How long can you sustain an erection when masturbating? Has there been any change or it is the same? As I said before, your mind is the origin of this problem and that is where the solution lies. Make sure you refocus your mindset on what matters most: Your girlfriend and relationship.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Keep me updated.

HI thanks for your response, and I will seriously try to stop masturbation.
When I masturbate, the erection lasts longer. There has not been any change yet, and as you said, I will try to change my mindset and stop masturbating. Thanks again.
