Dear service user
Thank you for writing to us.
I understand your concern about erection problem after ending relationship with your partner.
After reading your question, the erectile problem seems less likely to be physical and more likely to be psychological nature in your case.
There are several reasons for it; the common reasons are performance anxiety, partner specific problems, relationship issues, fatigue.
Dear young man, remember that sex is largely everything what happens between your two ears (mind) and little something what happens between two legs.
To fix it, I recommend you to see psychiatrist well versed in psycho sexual therapies. He will definitely assist you by counseling and behavior therapy.
Your guilt feeling for new partner itself worsens your sexual performance and lowers sex drive which in turn increases your guilt. Discuss this with your treating doctor and get counselled how to overcome this emotional problem.
Feel free to ask anything again if you have any queries.
Warm regards.
