Are you diabetic, depressed, or a smoker? Do you have high blood pressure or any other circulation problem? Maybe you're just too old.

1st issue was this definitely genuine Viagra obtained from a reputable pharmacy using a doctors prescription? If not more fool you for lining some crook's pocket.
Assuming you did attend your GP, hopefully he arranged a full check up before prescribing including a fasted blood sugar and cholesterol. ED (impotence) may be a marker for diabetes of high cholesterol, both of which might make the condition more resistant to treatment.
Assuming you saw a GP, were checked over and got genuine Viagra, I am afraid nothing is perfect and there is a fail rate.
Options are to try another drug in the same group, sometimes I have seen patients respond better to Levitra, ( I haven't had many Cialis successes).
If this fails their are other ED drugs including Muse, which is inserted into the urethra and Caverject which is injected. Any good GP can discuss all these options with you.
Don't give up most ED can be helped.

That's just hard luck.
Seriously though, if Viagra don't work, maybe you should try something like Cialis.

Are you sure it is Viagra and not some dodgy stuff you got off the web ? If it's Kosher I should give up and let sleeping dicks lie .

sometimes viagra doesnt work, it can be a physical problem, or psychological, as youre wating for it to happen, youre getting stressed and then it becomes a vicious circle, after taking viagra, its up to the woman to arouse the man, as you need the encouragement, if it doesnt happen for you, i do hope your partner is supportive

You need to go back to your doctor. Viagra helps lots of men, but it doesn't help all men. There are other medications your doctor might prescribe, or your doctor might refer you to a specialist, such as a urologist.

Now I'm not scare mongering but it would be worth geting checked by your doctor. This happened to a friend of mine when we were travelling in India and he turned out to have DVT.

Then you go back to your doctor and get this checked out. You may have a medical condition causing this like diabetes or something else. See your doc.

Talk to your doctor - there are other similar medications available. You may have to try a few until you find the one that works best for you.
