Do you have erection problems? Do you wonder why? Almost all of us have or will have problems in our lifetime.

What causes erection problems? Just about everything you can think of. Did I miss one?..add it to the list.
In general......emotional problems, nervousness,fear of failure or the unknown, money problems, car or house troubles, insecurity, lack of or too much sleep, worry, sickness, self-consciousness, jealousy, excess work or school, alcohol in excess, smoking, drugs (all erection killers), being out of shape, over or under weight, poor eating habits,on-going health issues like diabetes, kidney disease, heart trouble, circulation disorders, digestive problems, pain, muscle cramps, reaction to certain foods or medicine, environment,a medical condition, lack of lubrication,timing problems, size of penis issues, old age, bad breath, offensive smells, excess masturbation, etc...each can cause a situation where one can have erection difficulty.
Determine which one or ones are affecting you goes a long way to help solve this issue.
There is some super help available...every guy needs to enjoy a great sex life, but being HONEST with yourself is the first step, taking action is the second. So ask yourself...what is it ?

Wow, from a female's point-of-view, I don't think women truly know that men can have so many issues. I mean, I am no spring chicken, haha, and I never knew there were so many factors that play into a man's erection or performance ability. It helps to know. Thanks for the post. I know that in the past I have had it happen where a man would lose his erection and to a female, yes, it does hurt our feelings and make us feel like we aren't pretty enough, sexy enough, etc. but I guess females should just be more informed. Thanks.

And you know another thing is that you hear and read so much about how men's penises and their brains are not connected like a woman's, where a woman is much more emotional about sex and for men it is just a physical thing only, but this proves that men have some type of connection with emotion during sex.

Men are more sensitive than you think...and a loss of an erection is a direct attack on a man's ego. A man may lose an erection for just one of the ways I listed, however the next time, it could be just from the FEAR that it might happen again.
(I forgot to mention excess body heat as another cause.)
He can lose an erection just thinking of something other than sex. I can see where a woman may feel she has lost her beauty and this is the man's response. Thus, like Susan has said before, talking is part of intercourse...get to know your partner. Your reassurance at this time will help him out.

When you can isolate it to health reasons, there is a huge array of natural herbs and drugs to help. There is also an implant and a pump for an erection at will. There is also a needle ( painless) that can give him a three hour erection within 10 minutes! ( some of this could be covered by insurance)

Gregario, I am admitting that I have those things, nervouness, worrying about random issues like what she will think, money, school, stress, etc...

but now that I identify these problems what can I do? I've lost my erection whenever we go farther then kissing a few times and I really need to NOT lose it.. its the absolute worst feeling in the entire world when it happens.

Take a break from thinking about going all the way. Decide you won't. No matter what you will stop short of having intercource. See if you can keep your erection then.

If you have that many worries about what she will think - then that is also what you need to work on. COMMUNICATION. Talk to her about what she likes - what you like - make sex more than an act of your hard penis.

Nathan- just about every guy has experienced what you are going thru at one time or another, INCLUDING myself. I know how it is...if you got something eating at you, sex can be near impossible. And you are right that failure does feel horrible.
At that point, nothing seems to work.
Susan is right about taking a break from trying to put pressure on yourself, but later you will want to look at what it really is and solve it logically, systematically.
Susan mentioned this before that sex is about communication, and she is so right.
Once you have isolated exactly what bothers you, discuss it with your partner, who should be PATIENT and INTERESTED as much as you are in correcting these problems. If you feel that these issues are way too PERSONAL and SENSITIVE to be talking them out with your girl, you probably shouldn't be attempting sex in the first place!
