I've been noticing something worrying with my intimate health lately. My penis starts off firm, but after a while, it becomes a bit softer, even if I haven't ejaculated yet. I'm feeling a bit embarrassed about this situation. Is there anything I can do to get it back to how it used to be? I dont have any health problems, and I exercise regularly. Any advice would be appreciated!

It's understandable that you're feeling concerned, but this can sometimes happen due to stress, fatigue, or even mental factors like performance anxiety, even if youre physically healthy. Its important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, reduce stress, and communicate openly with your partner. If it continues, consulting with a healthcare professional may help address any underlying causes.
