why hubby doesnt keep erection?

I am 49 and hubby is 54 and he has finally  went to dr and they have decided his testostrone is low...so they came him a cream to put under his arm...which I can not tell it is helping so far!! Between life's stresses  and this how can sex happen...so ignore it??? Sex life is over I suppose?  I know it cant be all me...we both have changed some...but think we love each other.  lol Asked if he was ready for seperate bedrooms yet? He said NO! Any help out there?

Also before prescribing the cream did they check is PSA level? Its done with a blood test and has to do with his Prostate? Pretty important question.

It will take time for a cream or anything to work.  Give it some time.  It has to build up in his system.  If it doesn't help after a couple weeks (or however long his doctor said), he might discuss some other options.

Has the doctor checked his heart health?

How's his weight?  Personal question, perhaps, but more fat can equal lower testosterone too and/or a self-image problem that can affect drive.
