No. Propranolol is for your increased heart rate and it should not cause erectile dysfunction in you. I feel yours is a psychological cause. Better would be to consult.

Betacap is known to cause erectile dysfunction in few patients, in view of your heart rate it was probably prescribes to you, but you can consult your treating doctor for change in medication. Also the cause of your high BP and fast heart rate should be thoroughly investigated, please consult a cardiologist regarding the same.
