Half mast?

LegacyUser

For the past while I've been having a problem down there. I'm a male, late teens and in a relationship. For the past few weeks I've been having problems down below getting fully hard, when me and the girlfriend is going to have sex and when I'm having "alone time".

I was just wondering is this normal to happen for a while in guys? If not what could be the cause? It's just starting to annoy me because my girlfriend thinks she doesn't turn me on but doesn't believe me when I tell her I can't get it fully hard when watching porn either.

Help please?

Do you masturbate alot? That could be it...

or, I don't know, is it a nervousness thing? Is this a new girlfriend?

I wouldn't masturbate as much as I used to.

I don't think it's down to nerves because we were having great sex for ages now this. And the fact it happens when I'm masturbating too.

Is there much foreplay involved?

Yes there would be a good amount of foreplay involved beforehand. It's as if in my mind I'm dying to go but physically not too bothered.

Mention it to your doctor next time you're there.

Take a look at your diet and stress levels and see if anything's changed there recently. You can often be stressed without really realising it if it's crept up on you.

I know it seems like a huge deal to you, but it happens to loads of people all the time, and often just goes away of its own accord anyway. But do mention it to the doc next time anyway.

That's irrelevant. If it doesn't spring to attention during masturbation then foreplay isn't going to be much help.

Couple of causes. The main ones are severe stress and alcohol. Are you very stressed recently? Drinking a lot? Do you wake up with an erection (lots of guys do)? If so you can rule out a physical problem.
