Erection problem

2017-12-03 22:53:50
I tried having sex twice with a girl and my penis would not get an erection. I was attracted to her and everything but my penis just would not wake up. Is this normal? I am only 19 years old, lift weights and live a fairly healthy life style.

Anxiety could be the culprit here. In initial stages of sex life, there is intense anxiety. Apprehension, fear, etc ofthen creates burden on the individual which can lead to  performance anxiety. With suitable medications and instructions it can be completely cured.
