I'm really having trouble getting an erection lately no matter what I try, from watching porn to sexting or even phone sex, nothing seems to work. It's starting to worry me, and I feel like I've tried everything. Could there be something wrong or something I'm missing?

It's understandable to feel concerned about this. Difficulty in achieving an erection can be due to stress, anxiety, lifestyle factors, or underlying health issues like hormonal imbalances or circulatory problems. Please consider consulting a doctor to evaluate potential causes and explore effective treatments.

Can anybody continue sex after premature ejaculation?

Yes

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

I've noticed that after ejaculation, I often feel the urge to urinate, but it's hard to get started. Once I do, the urine stream seems pretty narrow. When I'm not dealing with this, everything flows normally, though sometimes it's like the stream sprays unexpectedly. What could be causing this?

its normal thing

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

I've been dealing with this issue and could really use some guidance. In my younger days, I masturbated a lot, often without lubricant or sometimes using soap. Now, the head of my penis is really dry, and if I dont put on moisturizer twice a day, it ends up burning a lot. What can I do about this? Is there something else I should be using or looking into?
