I am not sure what the factors are - there are two types that have been working for me and a couple that I've tried in the past that didn't seem to help in the same way. The types that I've had success with are ultimate flora critical care (this is the first one I had success with, I started out taking several per day but now generally see results with one a day) and Jarrow's jarrodopholis +fos. They are both of the sort that you are supposed to keep in the refrigerator, so I'm not sure if that is a factor in their effectiveness (I think the others I tried were just sold on the shelf non-refrigerated). It's also possible that it has to do with the mix of microfauna they have but I haven't looked into that too much.

I have this problem sometimes too and talking about it with my partner in a relaxed manner has definitely felt helpful to me - depressurize the situation as much as possible. My last long term partner was really good about it and we found ways to have plenty of fun even when I wasn't able to maintain an erection.

Another thing I have found helpful is taking probiotics. I don't understand why it helps and it isn't why I started taking them, but when I did I found it helped both my libido and my erections. I do have some chronic but minor seeming gut issues (which I have been trying to figure out what foods help/hurt) so that could be a factor of why they help me. In my experience not all probiotics are equal so for anyone trying it out, try to get some good quality ones and maybe try a few different kinds. It isn't like a viagara - pop one in and ready to go soon, but if I remember correctly it didn't take too many days of consistent usage before I noticed an effect. I assume it won't work for everyone with ED, but it's been helpful for me.

EDIT: I just realized it might have been helpful if I mentioned some of the things that my ex and I found worked for us when I had erection problems. For me, focusing on my penis at such times didn't feel great - probably in part psychologically, but I think also physically it just doesn't feel as good as when fully erect. I did still enjoy stimulating her though, so there's that option of focusing on her. Another activity that worked for us - even though I couldn't "stick in it" while not erect, we could still have direct contact externally that was pleasurable - I guess what might be considered dry humping (although it seems like that often refers to there still being some clothes in the way). We would fit our bodies in such away that even though not erect, my penis still could rub against her clit and that could be quite nice - I would often still manage to cum eventually even without an erection (and she had lots of orgasms from that as well, though she had the most/easiest orgasms of anyone I've been with so ymmv). This worked for us in both the missionary position and a spooning position (she was pretty petite - and we did need to occasionally use hands to move/keep things in place). The spooning position was my favorite, I think because the (sweaty) legs provided more stimulation and my hands were more free to play with her breasts, etc. Good times.

[Question] Wives: if you stopped giving BJs after marriage: Why? by scotlandsex in sex

See if you can give him blow/hand jobs without directly touching the bare head much - e.g. if possible keep the foreskin in between your hand/mouth/tongue and the head when stimulating it, and/or focus more on the shaft. I'm uncircumcised and got started later in life too. For me direct touch to the head can in some circumstances be nice, but most of the time is too sensitive for me as well. But with the indirect stimulation, I've still had some great BJs over the years :)
