I ejaculate within 2 minutes of masturbation. Is this abnormal?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Each person reach their orgasm on different time. The average time from the beginning of intercourse to ejaculation is about five minutes. If it happens before 1 minute then it's usually considered as pre mature ejaculation which has many reasons.

View allI've been married for a year and a half, and I'm having trouble with penetration even when I'm erect. My wife is getting wet enough, but whenever we try, I just can't penetrate. What's going on, and how can we fix this?
This could be due to a condition called **vaginismus** (involuntary tightening of the vaginal muscles) or psychological factors like performance anxiety. I recommend consulting a doctor to evaluate both partners, as this can often be treated with counseling, exercises, or therapy. Youre not alone in thishelp is available.

Hey doc, I've been feeling a bit worried lately. My partner and I have been trying to conceive for a while with no luck. I recently started reading about sperm count issues, and now I'm anxious if that could be my problem. Could you give me some advice on how I might increase my sperm count naturally? Are there lifestyle changes or specific foods that might help? I'd appreciate any guidance you can offer.
Here are some evidence-based ways to increase sperm count: *Lifestyle Changes* 1. *Maintain a healthy weight*: Excess weight can lead to hormonal imbalances, affecting sperm count. 2. *Exercise regularly*: Regular exercise can improve sperm quality and count. 3. *Reduce stress*: High stress levels can negatively impact sperm count. Practice stress-reducing techniques like yoga or meditation. 4. *Get enough sleep*: Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep per night to help regulate hormones and sperm production. *Dietary Changes* 1. *Eat foods rich in antioxidants*: Foods high in antioxidants, such as fruits, vegetables, and nuts, can help protect sperm from damage. 2. *Include zinc-rich foods*: Zinc is essential for sperm production. Include zinc-rich foods like oysters, beef, and chicken in your diet. 3. *Increase omega-3 intake*: Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fatty fish, nuts, and seeds, can help improve sperm quality. *Supplements* 1. *Vitamin D*: Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to low sperm count. Consider taking a vitamin D supplement after consulting with your doctor. 2. *Zinc supplements*: If you're not getting enough zinc from your diet, consider taking a zinc supplement. 3. *Folic acid*: Folic acid can help improve sperm quality and count. *Avoid* 1. *Smoking*: Smoking can significantly reduce sperm count and quality. 2. *Excessive alcohol consumption*: Limit your alcohol intake to moderate levels (1-2 drinks per day). 3. *Tight clothing*: Wearing tight clothing can increase scrotal temperature, potentially harming sperm production. 4. *Hot tubs and saunas*: Avoid frequent use of hot tubs and saunas, as they can increase scrotal temperature.

My foreskin is really tight and I can't pull it back all the way. I don't want surgery are there any creams or ointments that can help loosen it quickly?
Yes, certain creams and ointments, often containing steroids, can help loosen a tight foreskin (phimosis) and make it easier to retract without surgery. Topical steroids like betamethasone valerate, fluticasone propionate, hydrocortisone, or triamcinolone can soften and loosen the skin. These creams are often used in conjunction with gentle stretching exercises
