A member asked:

Difficulty with erections is not that common and doesn't happen to "real" men right?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Happens occasionally: A good erection is greatly influenced by emotions. In a younger man, without age-related erection problems or hormonal imbalances, a poor erection can be due to stress (stress at home, at work, in the relationship, etc.), due to other distractions (a toothache, a tummy ache, etc.), due to worries (worries about getting a woman pregnant, catching an std, his "other girlfriend finding out", etc.).
