Difficulty maintaining erection can be linked to high cholesterol affecting blood flow.
Managing cholesterol through diet, exercise, and medications (if advised) can help improve this issue.
Avoid smoking and limit alcohol to support sexual health.
A fasting lipid profile will help monitor your cholesterol levels.
If the problem continues, consult your doctor for further evaluation. Evaluation of PSA may help diagnose the cause of difficulty in erection.
