Urologist,  's  Response
Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist,i can fully understand and share your concern.
You should get examined by an Urologist, and need certain tests to be done:
1. Blood routine,sugar,FSH,LH,and testosterone.
2. scrotal ultrasound doppler scan.
According to the reports,the Urologist should be able to advise you, regarding proper treatment.
Lower levels of androgens can affect erection.This will be seen in the report.
You may send any doubt to me, as a direct question,for an expert advice.
