Erectile dysfunction - #29250
I am really worried about this thing I've been dealing with for a while now. So, I started having issues with erectile dysfunction a few months back, and it’s just getting worse. Like, I can’t maintain an erection, and it’s super frustrating. I’ve tried to just brush it off at first, you know, thinking maybe it was just a phase or something. But now it feels like it happens every time, and it’s affecting my relationship with my partner. We’ve talked about it, and she’s supportive, but I feel embarrassed, honestly. I’m 35, fit, and try to eat well, but I can’t help but think it’s something serious. I went to see my doc who said it could be stress, but I'm not really stressed in my life right now—no more than usual anyway. He suggested some tests for hormonal levels, but I’m still waiting on those results. I’m just wondering if anyone else has dealt with erectile dysfunction and it turned out to be something not so dire? Or if lifestyle changes can really help? I’ve read about a lot of remedies but, like, what actually works? Also, is it normal to feel this loss of confidence? Ugh, any insights would be super appreciated!
