21 Year Old, Not Getting Erection. Can I Try Viagra?

Hi im a 21 year old college student and have had a pretty serious girlfriend for about 4 months now. We've tried to have sex multiple times but for some reason I havent been able to get an erection. Its not that I'm not attracted to her because I am more attracted to her than any girl ive been with for a while. I was just wondering if viagra would be the right option for me to try? Thanks

Hi there ~

I understand your concerns. While it is easy to say that viagra is the remedy for erectile dysfunction (ED) it is necessary for you to see doctor for the prescription. The doctor will make sure by taking a good history if you are having nocturnal erections or not and also by doing a physical examination and probably run some blood tests and record your blood pressure and ECG as the medications does have some side effects. If you are fairly healthy, then viagra may be a good option for you. I hope this helps.

Take care and have a lovely day!
