I am not sure if I should be posting this here or somewhere else but here it goes.
A few days ago I met a woman and we were hitting it off, however somehow I was unable to get "hard" and or "stimulated" even though she was pretty attractive. Anyways I was wondering if I have some sort of medical issue or if the root cause of my problem was psychological in nature. In case you were wondering this has never happened to me before and I am currently 24 years old so I am not quite sure what was going on since I don't think ED is common among men in my age bracket.
Anyways I am just looking for advice here, so please no stupid comments or jokes, please.
Determine if it just reaction with this female or if it a common situation. Pay attention if you get the morning "rise" or not. Determine if your mind races thinking about everything besides relaxing getting intimate this might be issue.
Concentrate on your diet increasing proteins, avocados other aphrodisiacs and exercise too.
Don't be discourage if its not norm of your age bracket. If it doesnt happen go to doctor and have your testosterone level checked.
If it low the doctor probably prescribe a topical ointment or cream like Testim.
If its normal or high then a prescription to pricey blue bill.
Dont sweat it you may think to much trying to please, a glass of wine or some beer for a buzz not drunk or your back to square one.
Uh, no.
A healthy 24 year old could get it up even if he was on the Titanic lifeboats at the time.
There is something way wrong that is not just stress.
ED is either physical (unlikely, you do function with your cyber sex) or psychological.
The fact that you said this
I do plan on seeing a doctor eventually.
tells me that you're way less concerned than you should be, and there is most likely a psychological reason for it...perhaps you don't find sex all that enjoyable or important.
I STRONGLY disagree with this post. Especially the bolded.
Men can have any combination of tired, stressed, and/or emotionally upset.
And yes, even at 24 years of age, it happens.
The person in this specific post may have life experience that states no man has ever been unable to complete the function.
Nonetheless, it happens to EVERY guy at some point or another.
If you are relatively healthy, And it doesn't occur often, I wouldn't worry about it. If this is an ongoing issue, mention it to your doctor. But he will most likely tell you it is in your head.
Hopefully you were just really tired or something.
Or, maybe this woman is physically attractive, but she does NOTHING mentally for you. It IS possible.

A visit to a local urologist is always a good idea--especially if you've never been to one.
Actually I did have 2-3 beers but I am not sure that would be enough to cause this problem.

Well it was just once, but I am still kind of concerned. Anyways this happened two days ago so right now I am just putting things on hold so to speak.

Either way, seek some professional help if this happens again. One time could be nothing - more than once could indicate a problem.
While I do watch some porn on occasion I would not say it is enough for me to say that I have an addiction,
Anyways this happened just once, but I am trying to see if I can get a doctor's appointment this week as I am concerned this could be something more serious. I am thinking that high blood pressure could be a cause as well since it runs in my family.

Thanks for the recommendations, I will give your suggestion a try.

I havn't read all the replies to your problem.
I know the answer however. Do you wake up with a erection in your sleep? do you get erections at other times? if you do, the problem is psychological.
Okay. You're 24 and you've never had this problem before? Then you're likely just nervous, the result of over thinking your first roll in the hay with someone. Or you had too much to drink. It has happened to every guy on the planet. Even me. Once. And I wasn't feeling very good that night.

Has happened to me too and agree most males, whether they care to admit it or not.

The title of this thread is Unable to achieve an erection. I need advice.
If it was just occasional as a side effect of being tired, or stressed, he would know about it and he wouldn't be asking.
This guy is worried about psychological problems.
The title implies he is ALWAYS unable to get an erection, and his lack of medical attention to the problem shows he really doesn't care too much.
Hate to say this, but if you can geet one easliy otherwise, it's usually the woman who cannot "perform".
Maybe she is good looking, but she couldn't jump start a go kart.
I beg your pardon?
