hi, i am 19yo and i haven't had sex many times but every time i find myself in this situation:
in the presex i'm super comfortable and everything goes well but right when the situation is getting more sexual ( penetration, masturbation) my penis just turns off and i can't get hard anymore or at least not completely. the only thing that changes it is oral sex, but again once i start with something else it goes down...!?
could it be maybe alcohol or marijuana in my system? or is just nerves and inexperience? or something worse?

    @Maur0 Hello and welcome to the community its nice to see new members. I am sorry but I cant really offer you any advice this is a disability community and we are not able to offer any medical advice. It is quite well known that alcohol and drugs can affect sexual performance, I would discuss this issue with your GP who may be able to refer you to a therapist specialising in this field.

    Hello, I can confirm that certain prescription medicines can and will effect your ability to preform or get and matain an erection. May I sujest you try the links @spiceman posted and talk with your GP and pharmacy staff who may be able to help or advice. Expecting to much of your forthcoming experience could be a problem but I personally think the drinking and drugs are causing your problems and need to be addressed firstly.
