While it is natural for erection and sexual performance to reduce with age, a very weak erection with very poor sexual performance needs to be properly investigated. For this reason, it will be necessary for you to check your blood pressure, blood sugar as well as other health parameters and effect any necessary treatment if they are found wanting. It is equally important for you to check any medication you are currently taking because of the possible side effects of some drugs.

At your age, you should take a balanced diet made up of adequate proportions of carbohydrates, protein and oil. If all your health indices are normal and you still have a weak erection, your doctor can prescribe some sex stimulants for you.
