Suggest Treatment For Insecurity About Sexual Performance
Question: Hi, I would like to consult a psychiatrist to discuss about physco-sexual querries.
I am about to get married in 2 weeks time and I am concerned about my sexual health as I have never been in a physical relation till now by choice. I am a healthy person,however off-late I have started feeling that I may have an erectile dysfunction because there have been instances where I don't get an erection when I want with someone in a private moment or when I am M-bating,however I do get erection randomly,sometimes in the morning when I wake up or otherwise. I am not addicted to any drugs/smoking/alchohol. I do smoke and drink,but thats totally neggligible. I dont have any medical history besides chronic back-ache. Please help me as it is affecting my self-confidence and giving me negative thoughts on my upcoming married life.

Brief Answer:
It is due to anxiety

Hello
Thanks for choosing HCM
It is normal to have some insecurity about sexual performance. You have a normal morning erection so unlikely to be a major problem. Wanting an erection in privacy may not work every time because of stress of being caught. I think you are getting very tense so try and relax.

Thank You Sir for your encouragement.
However, my previous 5 years have been too stressful and I am assuming that might have some damage to my sexual desire. As I reported, I have been with a female in intimate position,however when we tried to move ahead with Sex, I did not get erection even after her touch and stroking. that gives me worry that I may have developed some risk of ED. Also,during m-bating at times, I get ejaculated without erection...is this normal? Please help me as I am too down in confidence and worrying about a failed sexual life. Is my problem a mixture of ED + PE? Should I eat anything specific as I dont have much time in hand before I get married.
Sir, I do feel sometimes that blood is not getting circulated properly to my penis due to some harmonal imbalance...any medicine you would like to suggest for immediate remedy.
Thanks a lot again.
