Couldn't get hard anymore in sex without masturbation.

Resolved Question:

I am 17 years old patientold and i am on no medication. My girlfriend and I have been together for a long time now and have decided it should be time we have sex. Knowing this i have stopped masturbating for about 3 weeks now and am very nervous. We tried to have sex last night and everything was going well. All of a sudden we moved to go downstairs and i just couldn't get hard anymore. I have read online and it says that being nervous can affect this but how do i not be nervous.

Hello,
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com
I completely understand your concern.
This is related to psychological anxiety, and there is no other remedy apart from the fact that you should be able to relax, and enjoy the feeling of intercourse and sex. Just relax and think that you are having sex with a partner you are fully committed too, and since you;re healthy there is absolutely no reason why you should not be able to perform the act properly. So, as you keep trying a few more times, it will automatically happen. You just need to be able to relax.
Regards.

Well this has been the 3rd time and its not that i am not comfortable around her i am just scared everytime i will not be able to get it up. I try not to think about it but i really need a way to just take my mind off of it. Maybe is their a pill i can take for like a one time thing.


You can take Sildenafil 25 mg but make sure this does not develop into a habit.
You have to get rid of this anxiety, and the more you think of it, the worse it gets.
You will need a prescription for Sildenafil.


Patient replied :

ok thanks but what is the diffrence between sildenafil and viagra


Sildenafil is just the generic name of Viagra.


Patient replied :

ok that would be great but i have a hard time seeing how my doctor is going to prescribe this for me he will proabbly say you have to get over it but i can't
