View allI'm newly married, and it's been over a week now that I'm struggling to connect with my wife when it comes to our sexual relationship. I think it might be due to ignorance on my part, and I'm really looking to get some advice or consultation on how to improve things. Can you help guide me on this?
It's completely normal to face challenges in communication and intimacy early in a marriage. I recommend having an open and honest conversation with your wife to understand each other's needs, comfort levels, and concerns. Seeking guidance from a professional counselor or therapist can also be helpful in improving coordination and building a healthy, respectful relationship.

I can retract my foreskin past the head by about an inch and a half, but I feel like the frenulum might be stopping it from going back any further. Does this mean I have a tight frenulum?
If you're able to retract your foreskin comfortably past the head but feel that the frenulum is stopping further retraction, it is likely that you have a tight frenulum. If it doesn't cause significant discomfort or other issues, it might not need medical intervention. However, if its causing discomfort or interfering with sexual activity, its a good idea to speak to a urologist who can suggest appropriate treatment options, such as stretching exercises or frenuloplasty.
