I am 38 years old and as of recent, my erections have become less and less. Oddly enough, I usually masturbate a lot but havent been doing it much recently due to boredom, sexual frustration because Im not having sex at all, and simply practicing self restraint. Ive notice that it takes me about a week for my dick to feel alive again. My 4⁴⁴ bloodwork has revealed that i have iron deficiency anemia so Ive been feeling tired a lot more recently. I exercise regularly and try to do cardio twice a week or at least once. Whats going on with me?

Hi

Well self restraint is not the best on long term, remember that medicine says since a long time that to keep your prostate in good health you have to empty them very regularly (whatever it's masturbation or sex with someone).

question is it good to masturbate 3 times a day though? Theres a such thing as overdoing it

well out of being exhausted It's probably lot healthier to cum 3 times a day than one time every 3 days ;-)

You are fine if you get night erections. Low libido can cause by many things. Even seasons affect me.
What does it mean if you're no longer getting night erections? You can email me if you want.

Night erection is a way to check if you have ED. If you still get night erection, it means your penis is physically healthy.

Did you talk to your doctor about the results of the tests, potential sexual side effects, and treatment options? See your doctor! Tell them what is going on, how you are feeling, etc. They are there to help, and they've likely heard it all before.

3 times a day is crazy (IMHO) but a few times a week should help in keeping the 'equipment' in good functional order. When I was in my 30s and in a sexual drought, masturbating a few times a week helped relieve some of the sexual tension

This is exactly what I was going to say. If you're getting night/morning erections, it means the problem is external (stress, fatigue, medicine...) and probably easier to deal with.

What you should be worried about more is why are you iron deficient, that is not normal in men and needs looking into.
 
Yes iron deficiency in men is a bit odd. Women get iron deficiencies because of their periods a lot of the time that's the cause. My wife is iron deficient in menopause due to random periods that are caused by her estrogen HRT, in trying to get her thyroid meds and HRT dialed in, she had spotting/periods randomly, sometimes twice a month, for about 8 months or so this past year. Bloodwork showed she was near anemic.

So OP are you eating red meat or meat at all? Are you getting any iron in your diet? Do you have any underlying conditions or problems?

Take an iron supplement, just a small one. Megafoods makes something called Blood Builder. They have a full dose in one tablet or full dose in two tablets. Get the latter. Take one a day with food. They are gross pills. But you'll start to get back on track. Fatigue and loss of motivation are directly related to iron deficiencies. My wife took iron for months and could stay up past 8pm, and had more drive for work and doing things with me.

But if you actually have anemia you need to work with a doctor on both it and why you have it.

Also get your thyroid levels checked, its related too.
