Just wandering if anyone has experienced the issues I'm having.

So I'm 38 years old and have had a very active sex life up to around 6 years ago. I gave up on the hunt or the longing for a relationship or sexual activity. Literally to the point to where I had one or two if any sexual encounters per year. Here recently I have become more sexually active and I'm having issues with ED. I would say looking back I may have had issues in the past two years but it was nothing I couldn't overcome with a little more foreplay. Now currently with the love of my life where I feel like I'm more open, honest and trusting than I've ever been in the past I'm having extreme issues. Sometimes I lose an erection during intercourse and sometimes I lose an erection just starting intercourse. Alcohol is not a major factor as I never have more than two drinks. I have been stressed out at work but all that seems to be getting better. It's almost like I'm losing my concentration level or my mind is cluttered with garbage I can't even decipher when it happens. It also seems like I have an aching in one or both testicles semi regularly.

Any responses would be appreciated.

Did you ever take SSRI (Antidepressants), Propecia/Finasteride (Anti-hairloss) or Accutane (Anti-acné) anytime in the past?

Do you watch too much porn? Masturbate frequently? Check your testosterone. Also other health issues, although it may be the stress.

Go to your MD have your testosterone level check. Make sure no heart or diabetes problem,or hypertension. Penis need constant supply of blood to keep erected.
