I’ve been able to get erections less and less for the past three months. (Splurged on sex with several partners, not much for years before then.) Before then I masturbated often (once a day). Anyway, with my last partner I was unable to get any erection at all. Then by myself I was able to get hard, but not completely, and then lost the erection.
