I'm having issues with my penis not staying firm during sex, and I'm also experiencing quick ejaculation. I've been masturbating for a few years, and I'm wondering what I can do to have stronger and longer-lasting erections. Could you give me some advice or any suggestions?

Erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation. To help improve the strength of your erections and prolong intercourse, you can try taking medications like sildenafil or tadalafil. These medications help increase blood flow to the penis, resulting in stronger and longer-lasting erections. Additionally, practicing techniques to delay ejaculation, such as the start-stop method or the squeeze technique, can also be helpful. It's important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, a balanced diet, and managing stress to improve your sexual health.
