A member asked:
I am 33yrs old, my erection is not as hard as it should be and it turns soft very quick, is it that i masturbate too much? anything i can do about it?

No: Masturbation has nothing to do with erectile function. Don't know how hard your erection should be, but there are many physical and mental causes for erectile dysfunction. Certain medications as well as cardiac disease, diabetes, tobacco, alcohol can cause it. If it's a serious problem check w/your doctor.
