I'm 21 and have been masturbating since I was 16, but didn't know the foreskin was retractable until recently. Now when I do it, I pull my skin back to the ridge, but I've never really been able to ejaculate fullyit just sort of dribbles out. Also, I've noticed my penis has a slight left bend from the base when erect. I think that might be due to how I wore pants as a kid. Is there a way to actually shoot sperm, or is there something wrong with what I'm doing?

You may have a condition called phimosis, which is when the foreskin is tight and cannot be fully retracted. This can sometimes affect ejaculation. I recommend you try using a topical steroid cream like Betamethasone to help loosen the foreskin. As for the slight curvature of your penis, it is likely not related to your pant wearing style and is quite common. To improve your chances of ejaculating, you can try using medications like Sildenafil before sexual activity. If these issues persist, it would be best to consult with a urologist for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been dealing with some issues related to urination and I'm worried it might be connected to my past habits. I started masturbating when I was 16, but I've stopped for over a year now. Even so, I'm experiencing night falls and a delay in urination. Could this be related to what I used to do, or might there be another cause? I'm really concerned and wondering what steps I should take to address this.
It's good that you've stopped the habit, but it may take time for your body to fully adjust. Difficulty with urination and nightfall can sometimes be related to underlying factors like stress, hormonal changes, or prostate health. I recommend consulting a healthcare provider to evaluate your symptoms and discuss potential treatment options.

I recently realized I have an undescended right testicle I can feel it just above the penis on that side. Is it still possible to descend the testicle at my age? If surgery is an option, how do I bring this up with my parents? Also, will having one testicle affect my sperm count or sexual health in the long run? Can I still have a normal sex life with just one?
Yes, surgery (orchiopexy) may still be an option depending on your age and the position of the testicle—consult a urologist for evaluation. It’s best to discuss this openly with your parents as it’s a common condition. Having one healthy testicle is usually enough for normal sperm production and sexual function. Most men with one testicle lead a completely normal sex life and can father children.

Ive been feeling a bit self-conscious about my flaccid penis sizeit seems small to me. But when I get an erection, it almost doubles in size. My testis seem normal, but the fluctuating size of my flaccid penis sometimes makes me worry. Some days it looks normal, and other days it seems very small. Is this something I should be concerned about?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition known as a retractile penis, where the penis appears smaller than usual when flaccid but increases in size upon erection. This can be a source of concern for many men, but it is important to know that it is not typically a sign of any serious medical issue. However, if this is causing you distress or affecting your confidence, you may consider speaking with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance. In terms of medications, there are no specific drugs to address this issue. However, if you are looking to improve erectile function, you may consider medications such as Viagra (Sildenafil) or Cialis (Tadalafil) under the guidance of a healthcare provider. These medications can help improve blood flow to the penis and enhance erectile function. It is important to use these medications at the prescribed dosage and follow the recommendations of your healthcare provider.
