Cold Penis

Hi,
for the past couple of months the head of my penis is sometimes very cold and recently when i was about to sleep with girl i knew i couldn't
get an erection (although I'd had a lot to drink). my feet also are often numb-cold i was wondering if this could erectile dysfunction or just sort of bad circulation.

Hello.

This forum is for discussing psychological aspects of erection concerns. In order to determine whether you are having circulatory difficulties, you need to see a physician for an exam.

Erections come and go--especially when large amounts of alcohol are involved. If you're not having erections upon awakening or during self-pleasuring, this could indicate an underlying physiological problem. If you ARE, however; then it's likely alcohol or anxiety played a major role in your experience. Relax and stop worrying--and get a check-up for your circulatory issues before they become worse. Dr. J
