I've been having some trouble lately with my penis not getting fully hard or straight, even though my sexual desire is still there. Everything was fine just about three weeks ago. I also noticed that before this started, I wasn't able to hold sex for a long time. I'm getting a bit worried about what's going on. Could this be something serious or maybe just stress?

I'm single and not in any relationships, but I have this overwhelming sex drive that's starting to mess with my daily life. Sometimes it even wakes me up at night, leaving me feeling anxious and nervous with sexual thoughts. I end up masturbating almost every day, and some days it's up to three times! I've noticed that doing it so often is giving me some lower back pain and making me feel really tired. Is this kind of desire normal? I read online that it might be due to high testosterone levels, and there's a test for that. But I'm curious, could there be other reasons for this? And what should I do about it? Can it lead to issues in the future?

Excessive sex desire, frequent masturbation, and associated symptoms like lower back pain and tiredness may be related to various factors, including high testosterone levels, hormonal imbalances, stress, anxiety, or underlying psychological conditions; other possible causes include sleep deprivation, certain medications, or nutritional deficiencies; consult a healthcare professional, such as an endocrinologist or a sexologist, for personalized guidance, and consider discussing the following: hormonal testing (e.g., testosterone, prolactin), stress management techniques, sleep hygiene, and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to address underlying psychological factors.
