3. What could be the factor according to you for onset of problem?

4. Frequency of the problem in last one month ? What number of sexual intercourse/masturbation failed in last one month?

5. What are the factors that increase the problem?

6. Factors that relieve the problem- you can describe them in detail if any?

7. Do you get early morning erection?

8. If yes how frequent and how intense? Please answer this necessarily.
