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.

I'm a bit worried about my recent urinalysis results. Everything seems normal except for the RBC and hemoglobin levels. A few years back, I had some issues with sand and crystals in my urine. Should I be concerned about the RBC levels? Is this harmful, or could it be related to my previous issues?

I recently had my sperm count checked, and the results showed 80 million, but only 20 are rapidly progressive. I'm currently taking Paternia VigorexSF and FertylM to help improve motility. Is this the right approach, or should I be considering something else?

Paternia+ contains antioxidants and micronutrients to support sperm production, Vigorex-SF contains L-carnitine and coenzyme Q10 to enhance sperm motility, and Fertyl-M contains clomiphene citrate to improve fertility. It is a good combination to improve your sperm parameters.

I'm having some trouble managing my sexual urges, and it's impacting my focus on my career. I find myself masturbating at least twice a week, and I'm currently single with no plans to get married. I really enjoy sex but prefer being alone. Lately, I've noticed my erections are not as strong or lasting as they used to be. Are there any operations or medications that can help control these feelings? I'd appreciate any advice.
