The lack of sex drive (frigidity) means that you don’t wish (not interested in) sex. Masturbation is the biggest proof that you desire sex and that you are not frigid. Impotency means that you like sex but are not able to perform it. Generally there are 2 types of impotency: organic and psychogenic. Achieving erections by touching the penis could indicate that your sexual dysfunction is due to psychogenic reasons, not organic. If the impotency was caused by organic reasons you wouldn’t be able to achieve erection anyway. Excessive masturbation can cause psychogenic impotency. If you still have problems with the prostate, that is an organic reason that can contribute to your sexual dysfunction. Depression can cause IBS and psychogenic impotency.


First, you might want to consult a urologist about your problem to exclude/confirm any organic reason for your sexual dysfunction.
