Stuggling to hold an erection

My boyfriend is having trouble staying hard during sex.
When we first started everything was fine (about 3/4months ago) however he needs about a 30min break between times. But recently he's been unable to hold an erection during sex despite the length of foreplay.
Ive tried to tell him it doesn't matter but I know it bugs him because he feels as though hes disappointing me-I think it might have something to do with his need to impress me. But I cant think of why this began to happen.
Ive bought lingerie and tried new positions but its still the same result...Hes only 18 but wont seek any help sine hes so shy.
Can anyone help??

I'm not expert in this, but it might be penile dysfunction. the most important thing he needs to see a doctor, if that's really bugs him. if he made the tests and nothing working, it might  be emotional thing but I don't think so, you said you bought lingerie and i'M Sure you care about your looks and stuff, also that doesn't prevent it. good luck.

Obviously this is a pre-set response that's copy and paste or something considering it says MY BOYFRIEND and not me personally. And secondly hes 18 so feeling 17 again isn't any kind of accomplishment.
And im not buying him testosterone which can make him unstable and aggressive (ive a friend who uses it for their gender change)
please don't waste my time with answers that are obviously not going to help him
