Limit or avoid alcohol.


Over time, drinking too much alcohol can harm the blood vessels in your penis.


If you drink, limit yourself to no more than two drinks per day. Trouble sticking to set limits? Ask your doctor for help.


Reduce performance pressure.


Worrying you’ll have trouble next time you have sex can cause anxiety and extra stress.


Suggest other ways of being intimate until you are ready (like taking baths together).


If you have an erection that’s painful or lasts more than four hours, call your doctor right away. You may need treatment to avoid permanent damage to your penis.
