" Question My husband can never seem to keep his erection when we make love. He starts out okay but then half way through, his penis just goes limp.  He said he does not know why and like all men  won&amp;#039;t go to his GP to discuss his erection problem.  I thought it could be me because I get very wet and maybe that would put him off, but he said it&amp;#039;s not me. I know he works hard; he&amp;#039;s away all week but I have tried everything and am at a bit of a loss as to what to do.  He is overweight but that has not stopped us in the past &amp;amp;#8211; last year we were going to have a baby but we lost it last May. I don&amp;#039;t know what to do any more. Could you please give me some advice?   Answer Well, you&amp;#039;re not right in saying &amp;#039;like all men, he won&amp;#039;t go to his GP&amp;#039;. I must personally have seen well over 2000 men with similar erection difficulties who plucked up the courage to come and see a doc.  It&amp;#039;s obvious that your man needs a medical examination &amp;amp;#8211; plus one or two simple tests, to rule out physical conditions like diabetes. (Sometimes illnesses like diabetes &amp;amp;#8211; which really need to be treated &amp;amp;#8211; make men impotent.  And it is often the erectile problem that is the first sign that something medical is wrong.) But there may be psychological factors &amp;amp;#8211; for instance, the fact that you recently lost a baby. His GP can help him decide whether he just needs tablets (such as Cialis, Levitra or Viagra) or whether he should see a specialist. For the sake of your marriage, please urge him not to hang about.  Good luck! Yours sincerely Dr David Delvin, GP   Other Qs &amp;amp; As Can I take Cialis for my erection probem &amp;amp;#8211; even though I suffer from high blood pressure?
