Hello and thankyou for approaching DoctorSpring with your query.
Your values of FSH, LH and Prolactin are normal. But however to diagnose the cause of erectile dysfunction you need to see the serum testosterone levels too to get a clearer picture.
Have you done serum testosterone levels? are you on testosterone supplements?

In order to help you with your condition please can you give me for information.
1)Since when are you having erectile dysfunction?
2)Did it start suddenly?
3)Are you having normal erections in your sleep?
4)Are you a smoker or heavy alcohol consumer?
5)Do you have any medical condition like high blood pressure or diabetes.

Please reply as a follow up.

Thankyou

Dear Doctor please find your point wise answers
1.I faced by erectile dysfunction issue after my marriage on 2012.Where in i found that my erection doesn't sustain for long to complete successful penetration.

2.Before marriage i didn't had any relation so was unaware of this time issue
3.Yes i do have normal erection
4.No i don't smoke nor drink
5.No i donot have any such problem of blood pressure or diabetes

I am consulting a sexologist,who asked me to take these FSH,LH and PRT test and she told me that my FSH and LH are on Lower side.She has recommended for my semen analysis too.

My doctor is gonna prescribe me ANDROIL TESTOCAP capsule from Feb 2014 after she gets my Semen report as well as she is gonna begun my hormonal treatment.As per her ,this issue if not corrected right at time ,may create issue with begetting a child.How ever she ensured that these hormones level can be normalised.

Both my wife and myself are worried due to this diagnosis.Although we believe in our doctor but still feel to take a second opinion as to whether we are going in the correct direction or not

Thanking you again

Hello,

Please let me know your Testosterone levels. You have not mentioned it.
Also make sure you are under the care of a Specialist Andrologist, Endocrinologist, Urologist or Infertility Specialist. DO NOT start treatment without expert care. Make sure your Doctor is qualified in any of the above mentioned speciality.

Thank you
