Hi,
Welcome to HCM and thanks for your query.
The tests are within the normal range. No more tests are needed.
Occasional loss of erection and varying erection strengths can occur even in a normal person.
Treatment is needed only when the erection is NOT strong enough for penetration.
Regards
DR GS
