Every man has times he does not get erect as fast or as fully as he wants. When not getting hard enough for intercourse becomes the norm, that’s a problem.
The good news is there are ways to make any penis erect. The bad news is what’s causing the problem could be life-threatening. So go tell your doctor about the issue, and get checked. No, really, do it. Dead men have no sex. Your doctor can also help with solutions.
Drugs are a common choice for dealing with ED. Be aware Viagra® and other such drugs don’t make you erect, they simply allow you to get erect normally. So you will need to do what ever you did before.
Both Viagra® and Cialis® are now available in generic versions that cost far less, and Amazon Pharmacy has great prices. Note that Viagra® requires time to work, and only lasts a short time. Cialis® is good for up to 36 hours, so if you take one daily, you can have sex when you like.
A simple solution if you have weak erections, or get hard and then soften during sex, is a penis ring. A penis pump will give you an erection if you have a heart beat, with a ring being used to keep you hard. However, such an erection hinges where it meets the body. Some men find this annoying, some have no issue with it. With a bit of practice, you can have intercourse just fine with a pump created erection.
Beyond getting an erection, you can have mutually satisfying sex without one. Oral sex works well on a soft penis, as will manual with some practice. And a strong vibe will get any guy there.
No guy looks forward to ED, but it’s neither life ending nor sex life ending. Accept it as a medical condition, deal with it, and keep enjoying sex together.

@Lola – How so? Supporting him? Getting him to go for help? Not getting the sex you want?
Thank you. My Hubby has type 2 diabetes and his ED is getting worse. It also doesn’t help that I haven’t treated our sex life well prior to his diagnosis.
