What should I do if the penis is not erect during sex?

Patient's question:

Having sex with your girlfriend, you lose erection after inserting for a while, unable to have normal sexual intercourse, feeling powerless and lacking energy. Recently, you've been under significant work and life pressure. You're upset because it's not a psychological issue, but rather a physical problem. What should you do?

Doctor's answer:

During sexual activity, if the penis does not become erect sufficiently, it could be due to psychological or physical factors. If morning erections are normal or there are no issues during sexual activity, but the erection becomes insufficient only during intercourse, it is likely caused by psychological factors. If the insufficient erection is related to excessive work pressure, it can be alleviated, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medications should be used according to the specific symptoms. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay attention to personal hygiene.
