What causes the erection not to last longer?

Hi doctor,

I was not sexually active for the last year, but recently, I resumed my sexual life. I am not able to maintain my erection during sex (although I can achieve it, but it is not that hard). I never faced this issue before and was not sure what was causing this problem. I am 30 years old.

Please help.

Thank you.

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the reply.

I am currently out of the city due to COVID-19, and we are going through a partial lockdown here, so I am not sure how to get these tests done. Also, please find the answers to your questions. My mood is fine. I have recently started a new relationship, and we are thinking of getting married. My energy levels are also fine. I do not feel low or lethargic. I am having a normal diet.

I had a lack of sleep for the past four months as I was preparing to switch jobs. But I moved in with my partner, and since then, I have had no sleep disturbances. I am sleeping fine, and I have not felt anxious since then. None of my family members suffers from anxiety or depression, and I do not use cigarettes, tobacco, cannabis, or any other substances of abuse. I very rarely consume alcohol.

Also, I sometimes feel that this is due to performance pressure, as I really like my partner and do not want to lose her, and that can be one reason for this.

Please advise.

Thank you.

Hi doctor,

Thank you for your reply.

I wanted to know whether it is safe to consume Sildenafil 50 mg and Dapoxetine 30 mg on a regular basis, or if there are any side effects from it. Also, I wanted to share with you my sexual history. I was quite sexually active seven years back in my previous relationships.

Then, after the break-up, I had a few sexual encounters. But for the last year, I had not been sexually active at all with any girl, and masturbation was also very infrequent. But now, for the last two months, I have started a new relationship and seem to be facing this issue. I am not sure if I actually have any issues or if it is just performance pressure or anxiety.

Kindly guide.

Thank you.
