A member asked:
If before i had long lasting erection and now i have complete feeling in my penis but fail to maintain my erection without flexing my pc muscle does it mean nerve damage, scar tissue or too much porn?

Many possibilities: This could be psychological or physical and would require a detailed exam to elicit the cause of the problem. See a urologist and make sure there are no anatomical issues, and they could then advise you where to go from there. Good luck.
