Hello, I have quite a serious problem because I have not been able to achieve a full erection for several months! I am 18 years old and my sex life started about 2 years ago. I do not suffer from any diseases and I am fully physically fit. What could be the reason for this and is it possible to somehow "fix" it?
There can be many reasons - from banal to serious. It may be stress (most common at this age), fear of pregnancy, change of contraception (eg to a condom), a new partner, etc. The "more serious" reasons include diabetes, primary hypertension, hormonal and metabolic disorders, diseases of the so-called systemic, etc. It is difficult to carry out complete diagnostics by correspondence, I recommend visiting a sexologist.
