Help, I'm struggling to get hard and stay hard regularly

I have been with my partner for 6 months now, and now in regularly struggling to get hard and stay hard.I also have no morning wood anymore, and really struggling to get an erection.

I used to be on sertraline 3 months ago, and could not ejaculate, but I could get hard.

Now, I can't even get aroused around my partner, even when shes naked and I'm playing with her.

We would be naked, and I can't get hard, I have to play with myself , but can't get hard enough for sex. She plays with me and can't get hard, enough for sex.

It's really frustrating and ruining our sex lives .

I don't drink or smoke and not obese

Thanks

David

A question? Have you determined what is the most erotic source of your arousal? If so then focus on that (barring the involvement of children) and see if that increases your level of excitement and keeps you hard to your satisfaction.

hey buddy I've been there.... likely meds of MH related. As was with me, the more frustrated you get the worse it gets it's an awful cycle. I used viagra in the end, once my confidence was back I was good again

I certainly agree that many problems with sexual performance follow a cycle of just getting worse and the use of ED drugs can help break that cycle. More importantly, you need to keep the lines of communication with your partner open. Talk about the issue with her and, as a step in the right direction , consider other ways of bringing her to orgasm. Your penis is not your only tool!! The sertraline may have begun your problems or the reason you were taking sertraline may have. Perhaps contacting your GP or Relate might be a good external help relate.org.uk/what-we-do/co...

ED drugs? Ask your doctor or a pharmacist about the side effects of the ones you take. Do not stop taking any of them just speak tot hem about this and see if they can help

ED drugs? - Erectile dysfunction drugs such as Viagra or Cialis

Maybe you should talk to MagnusMessi and see if he can give you advice. He seems to have the opposite issue.
