Erectile difficulties
Been having trouble maintaining an erection since the middle of January. I have seen multiple urologists over the past few months and they are all attesting my difficulty to anxiety/depression issues. I am currently being seen by a counselor and am on a depression medication to see if that helps. The medication I'm on does not hinder sexual function, so that is not worsening my erection problems. A month or so back, I had a doppler ultrasound done on my penis and I was notified that there was no sign of a venous leak. My urologist told me since this test came back perfectly fine that my erectile difficulties are all psychological. I've been trying to stay away from touching the area... but at my age it's pretty difficult. With stimulation, I can get a near full erection. But within a half minute post-stimulation, I lose any sort of erection I had.
Onto my question... Does this sound like it could be something psychological? I've been on edge to believe that since I just hit the 4 month mark, but something seems off about this. Any advice appreciated, thanks.
