    Hi all,

    Long time lurker, first time poster. I'll try give as much info as possible...

    I'm a 25 year old guy, and it seems I'm suffering from erectile dysfunction in some form or another. This is pretty surprising to me, although my sex drive was never through the roof, but I would masturbate a fair bit (3/4 X pw?) and never have a problem getting/keeping it up when I did have sex, which I did with my ex-girlfriend who I finished up with after 3 years earlier this year, albeit not having much sex at the end of the relationship. Last time we did however (September) I was absolutely fine.

    Since breaking up with her, I've been involved in a few flings with various girls, and each time I've had problems maintaining an erection during sex/foreplay with them. I'm trying to peg what it is, whether it's performance anxiety with new girls, or whether environmental factors have thrown me off (all 3 girls have messed the mood up to an extent by being awkward/shy/weird about having sex, however all have assured me they are very "into" me... maybe it's a bad luck thing). Masturbation these days is also happening without achieving a full erection, so I know something's up (or not!).

    My life has become quite hectic of late, and I am only ever getting 6 hours sleep per night, and have been a bit stressed/tired as I am working 9-5 and studying a full time business course by night, most nights. I've been drinking a bit more coffee (dunno if that affects things) and generally not eating as great as I should be. I have noticed a marked reduction in my sex drive, and can go full days without getting erections etc, which would have happen several times per day as recently as the end of the summer. I don't have time to work out or anything, and I only really get 30 mins brisk walk most days. I'm slightly (maybe a stone) overweight.

    Has anyone any experience with this? It's a horrible snowbally effect as the anxiety is building and frankly it's destroying me, and I can't imagine what'll happen next time I try to have sex, which will probably be with a girl it happened (or didn't happen) with last time. Is there anything natural I can take (I really don't fancy getting involved in a viagra dependency situation), or lifestyle changes I can introduce?

    Thanks

    You need to go talk to your dr about this, yes improving your over all health can help but there could be more serious medical issues happening. So go get yourself checked out by the dr.
