Hi, I am 25 years old and have a long history of habitual masturbation. Recently, I have been experiencing some erection problems: either difficulty getting an erection or inability to sustain it. I have done hormone tests, and the results are: Testosterone: 452 ng/dL Free Testosterone: 16.60 pg/mL LH: 6.09 mIU/mL Estradiol (E2): 61.9 pg/mL FSH: 7.33 mIU/mL My doctor has suggested a penile Doppler test. Based on my hormone test results, is this test necessary, or can it be skipped? Please advise
