Brief Answer:
no need to worry it happens occasionally

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

You are 26 years young man. At this age no possibility of any physical cause of erection problem. It happened only once. When erection problem is there for at least 6 months most of the times during sex then only we can stamp diagnosis of ED. So no need to worry at all.

Sometime due to fatigue, lack of mood, situational problem or environmental changes man can fail in sex. It is normal phenomenon.
You probably want to tell that you could not get sufficient erection after first erection. This can happen normally. It may be due to refractory period.

In males there is called refractory period after ejaculation and orgasm. This is the period during which it is physiologically impossible for a man to have additional orgasms. The penis may be hypersensitive and further sexual stimulation may feel painful during this time frame. While the refractory period varies widely among individuals, ranging from minutes to days, most men cannot achieve or maintain an erection during this time. This is completely normal.
Average period duration varies from 15 to 45 minutes. But it can be less like 1 minute and more like 1 day also.

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 please do not think about this failure. Relax, do not involve in sexual activity for 2-3 days. After that you can do sex normally.

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