    This comes down to the main reason I'm here. In the last three months my sex drive has dropped substantially, and I've gotten some serious ED. Even ED medication doesn't work, and it used to work quite well. The crazy thing is that there are no indicators of why I am getting it.

    About me - I'm 30, 5'10", 165lbs, 18% bf, and workout 5 days a week lifting weights. I ski, hike, play lacrosse and stay active all the time.

    I went to see a doctor and none of my tests came back indicating anything bad. My test level is 700 ng/dL, and all my other markers were good. I am not sure what the hell happened. The only things that have changed the last three months is that I started working out again, eating a lot more food (good food, balanced diet) to put on muscle, and broke up with my girlfriend.

    I had cut down on my porn usage prior to breaking up with her, and I've been pretty good recently about nofap.

    How I found out I had ED was when I was taking new girls home, my dick did not work properly, or at all. It was doing this even before breaking up with my girlfriend a few months ago also, but attributed it to the fact that I knew I had to break it off with her and it felt weird to have sex with her.

    I'm hoping a reboot will help this out, but I have noticed that I no longer get morning erections, or erections at all now without some serious physical stimulation and fantasy. Since quitting porn, I basically do not get erections even with a hot girl present. I don't know if this is normal or not.

    Question for you... has this ever happened to you? Is it normal for this stuff to happen out of nowhere? Any advice on how to deal with this would be great. Sorry for the long winded post.

    I think many people on this forum deal with very similar problems, and I'd recommend reading through as much as you can.

    Also, read the NoFap PDF file, it discusses ED.

    Sorry I cannot be more helpful, I do not have enough experience to give you a more confident and complete answer.

    Thanks for the reply - I probably should have looked around more thoroughly before posting this. I'll keep looking around to see if I can find a potential answer!
