 low testosterone levels

Erectile dysfunction (ED)
ED occurs when a man cannot achieve or maintain an erection appropriate for
intercourse and this can occur due to:

Difficulty having an orgasm

Stress and fatigue are the enemies of orgasm and so are pain and discomfort during
sexual activity.

Pain and discomfort

Inadequate lubrication and tense vaginal muscles make penetration painful.
Involuntary vaginal muscle spasms, or vaginismus, can make intercourse hurt.
