dear john,thanks for choosing health care magic.I think you do not have any major problem.it could be performance anxiety or some stress leading to this.Too much smoking can be harmful in long run.Ask your partner for help.Go for more time in foreplay and just relax during the act,avoid haste.You can use condom which will prevent direct contact will help in this problem also.still if this does not work talk to your doctor.
