Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

The erection problem is not significant as you are able to perform sexual intercourse. If you get erection problem during regular sexual intercourse, then I suggest taking medication tablet Tadalafil 20 mg one tablet one hour before intercourse. Always welcome for more related queries. Thank you. Regards.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
