I'm 21 and I've noticed I haven't been having morning erections for almost a month now. I usually masturbate 3 or 4 times weekly, and I'm wondering what might be the cause. How can I achieve stronger erections, and is there an ideal frequency for how often I should be masturbating in a week or month?
