Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Kidney stone is not a cause for Erectile disorder unless during the stage of acute pain.
You had not mentioned your age. Are you a diabetic? Are you on any drugs. These facts are having impacts on your problem.
If the sexual frequency is more then you will loose your sexual drive.If not having adequate sleep or exhausted too much also, leads to erection failure.
If you have pressure performance, (for eg, Want of baby), then also ED may occur.
Most of the occasions without drugs and with a proper guidance you will regain your erections. Consult a sexologist for further help.
