Yes, obesity can be an important contributor to your erection problem. At 100 kg and 160 cm, your BMI is approximately 39, which falls in the severe obesity range. Obesity is associated with erectile dysfunction through vascular, metabolic and hormonal mechanisms and is also associated with lower
testosterone. Your difficulty getting an erection without porn and losing it within seconds can additionally have a psychological/conditioning component, particularly when sexual stimulation has become strongly linked to visual pornography. So, in your case, the problem may be a combination of physical and psychological factors rather than your previous grade-1 varicocele alone.
Next Steps
It is appropriate that your urologist has advised a
testosterone evaluation. If testosterone is found to be low, it should generally be confirmed with an early-morning measurement before concluding that you have testosterone deficiency. Since your urologist currently found no clinically evident varicocele, there is no reason from the information provided to assume that you need varicocele surgery or embolisation. Your weight should be addressed seriously; evidence-based guidelines indicate that weight reduction and regular physical activity can improve erectile function, and losing weight may also improve testosterone in men with obesity. Continue the treatment prescribed by your urologist and discuss the response at your follow-up rather than adding multiple products yourself.

Health Tips
Make weight reduction one of your primary treatment goals. Continue gym activity, but combine resistance training with regular aerobic activity such as brisk walking, and focus on sustainable calorie control rather than crash dieting. Reduce highly processed foods, sugary drinks and frequent overeating, and prioritise adequate protein, vegetables, whole grains and good-quality sleep. Regarding erections, gradually reduce dependence on pornography and avoid repeatedly testing your erection. During sexual activity, concentrate on arousal and sensation rather than checking whether you are sufficiently hard. With consistent weight management and correction of any underlying hormonal/metabolic factors, significant improvement in erection quality is quite possible. Thank you
