There are so many reasons the flagpole doesn't rise up to our expectations, it's difficult to surmise any particular cause. Thought it's not an uncommon complaint coming from men your age. Yes, age has something to do with it because Testosterone (T) levels peak at age 18-20, and begin declining. It's such a gradual drop that we typically don't notice. For instance, from age 30 levels expect to drop by 1% each year.
So, first on your list is to get your T-levels checked. That should be an easy enough task with a trip to your doctor. You don't even necessarily have to go into detail about flagging boners. A simple, "I get tired around midday," should work. Though, as I've said before, men should never be embarrassed to discuss sexual functioning with a physician.
He knows all about how your cock should work.
- reduced sexual desire, or low libido
- fewer spontaneous erections
- impotence
- erectile dysfunction (ED)
- infertility
- changes in sleep patterns
- difficulty concentrating
- lack of motivation
- reduced muscle bulk and strength
- decreased bone density
- large breasts in men
- depression
- fatigue
You might also start a regimen of Kegel exercises. The exercises are simple to do, and you don't even need a boner so you can do them so nobody would be the wiser. You flex and hold for a few second, then release. Do 10 reps, spaced throughout the day.
If your T levels report as normal, Urologists have found that vibration and soundwave therapies are helping men with ED by stimulating blood flow which, discounting major trauma, is the major cause of ED.
It's painless - except for the bills. You might consider a home-remedy imitation. Get a good vibrator and instead of using it on the cock (as you'll no doubt be tempted to)
use it along the Perineum for several minutes each day. It should help improve those boners.

he should see a doctor!
Good advice, bro. I agree with Xerxes, he should seek medical advice. I hope you and yours are doing well today, my Friend. Wishing you a bonerific day! Hugs, Licks, and Strokes, AOM
See your doctor is a must in any case in regard of your general health.
Personally, I'm in my 60's and didn't have much problem with my erections except for around 7 years ago where it became more difficult to achieve good hardons.
The issue was that I was improving a diabetes condition type2 not knowing about it.
I found out in October 2016 and my doctor told me that this condition affects the nerves and blood arteries and veins.
Now that I'm having a better control on my glycemia, I feel better but the damage is done for the nerve part.
I can masturbate and have a semi hard erection but no problem to have a good ejaculation.
Maybe it could help someone but for sure, see a doctor and get tested.
Most doctors these days are very understanding about men's sexual problems. So see your doctor. Nice early summer morning here!
I did read somewhere that if you break a limb, those who exercise see significantly less loss of muscle. That somehow even though you are not able to exercise those specific muscles in a cast, they somehow benefit when you are exercising all the rest of your muscles. So exercise does your whole body good. Hugs and bisous both good exercises.
You always give good advice but “low T” requires testing by a doctor and a doctor not taken in by Big Pharma’s scare campaign to convince guys that medication is the only answer. Exercise. Diet. Weight. The natural things you suggest to maintain a healthy boner are really important.
I was going to reiterate that this is not unusual, but you are worrying or you wouldn't have posted the question. Good advice already given, but I would add that softening of my own hardons coincided with starting blood pressure control meds in my 50's- medications are another thing to discuss with your doctor. I've been taking 10 mg of Cialis a day for years now to counteract the meds which has generally been satisfactory.
I agree that talking with your doctor is totally appropriate when you feel that your erections are not as strong because they can do tests and look at meds to see if some things can be changed to improve that. We go to the doctor about other issues and I agree with you Whkattk about there being nothing to be embarrassed about regarding talking about any erection issues with your doctor.
I think "low T" is more Big Placebo.
Spoiler alert: Same companies.
I had a period when my erections weren't great. I could only achieve a semi hardness and couldn't always ejaculate. I had hip replacement surgery, had put on a lot of weight (both before and after the surgery), and was diagnosed as a type 2 diabetic. I let it all overwhelm me and depression set in.
My husband decided strong measures were needed to get me back on track. Bryn (my husband) dragged me to the doctor and insisted on going into the appointment with me. To make a long story short....a few lifestyle changes re: diet and exercises, a short course of meds, and actually getting the information I needed made all the difference in the world....healthy body, healthy mind, healthy erections.
