Hi Husain, thanks for your question.
It sounds like you are able to obtain and maintain an erection usually, but not during intercourse. This means you likely don't have anything physically wrong with your penis, but rather experience "performance anxiety," that is, you get nervous when you are trying to have sex, and this anxiety makes it difficult to obtain and maintain an erection. There are therapies for this, mostly involving talking with your wife about this problem, and working with her together so you are less anxious and she is able to experience sex pleasurably with you. There are also medications available to treat erectile dysfunction, such as sildenafil (Viagra).
I hope this helps.
