Medication?: It could be related to medication, vascular problems, issues from survey, depression etc... I would recommend contacting your transplant surgeon and discuss it frankly with him or her.

Yes, yes, yes.: Sex is an important part of life quality - feel empowered to discuss openly with your transplant team. Some men have difficulty with erections because of hypertension, diabetes and medications they must take - usually treatable. You must also consider possible impact of immunosuppressants on causing abnormal sperm (risk is probably low). Overall, odds are good for being active. Be responsible too.
