What Causes Erectile Dysfunction?

This is a difficult question to ask. My boyfriend is having a difficult time holding an erection during sex. This is an issue we just recently had to deal with the past couple times. Prior to this we were having sex and with no issues. Any ideas of what might be the cause of this?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Erectile dysfunction in most cases is due to psychological cause. It's advisable to get an penile Doppler test to rule out blood flow abnormalities.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
