25M Lost my erection twice during sex but I get morning erections sometimes.

Hi everyone,

I'm a 25-year-old male and I'm looking for some advice from people who've experienced something similar.

The first time, a few weeks ago, I couldn't get a firm enough erection for penetration. I was attracted to my girlfriend, but I kept thinking, "What if I can't stay hard?" and it just didn't happen.

Today, during foreplay, I ejaculated before we actually had sex. When we tried to have intercourse afterward, I couldn't get a strong erection again. I waited for a while hoping it would come back, but it never became firm enough.

A few things about me:

- I do get morning erections sometimes (not every day).

- I can get erections while watching porn or masturbating.

- I used to watch porn about 2–3 times a week, but for the last 1–2 months it's been very rare.

- I don't have this problem all the time—mainly during sex with my girlfriend.

I'm starting to wonder if this is performance anxiety or if I should be worried about erectile dysfunction.

Has anyone here gone through something similar? If so:

- What helped you overcome it?

- Did it resolve on its own?

- At what point did you decide to see a doctor?

I'd really appreciate hearing your experiences. Thanks.
