I'm 27 and I've been noticing something strange. When I masturbate, my penis gets really tight, but when I'm having sex with my girlfriend, it doesn't seem to get as tight. It's got me super worried. Could you help me understand what's going on?

It's normal for the penis to feel firmer or tighter during masturbation due to different levels of arousal and muscle contraction. During sex, the physical and emotional dynamics are different, which can affect how the penis feels. If you're concerned, consider speaking with a healthcare provider for further reassurance.

View allMy 73-year-old father has phimosis, and his urologist recommended circumcision mainly for hygiene and to prevent future infections. He's had diabetes for 26 years but it's well-controlled (HBA1C 6.6), and his BP is stable. The doctor suggested conventional surgery under local anesthesia but didn't mention laser surgery. I'm trying to understand the pros and cons of both methods conventional cutting vs laser especially for someone his age with diabetes. Which one would be safer or more recommended in his case?

While having sex, I've noticed random cuts on the skin of my penis, and my partner experiences a burning sensation around the opening of her vagina. Could this be something serious? Sometimes we don't use protection. Also, I'm curious if there's a chance that kits might give incorrect results. Can you help with this?
The random cuts on your penis skin and your partner's burning sensation around the vaginal opening during sex could be indicative of a sexually transmitted infection (STI), such as herpes, HPV, or genital warts, or other conditions like genital eczema, psoriasis, or dermatitis; the lack of protection during sex increases the risk of STI transmission; regarding the accuracy of STI test kits, while they are generally reliable, there is a small chance of false negatives or false positives, so it's essential to consult a urologist

I've noticed something a bit concerning over the past couple of days. There's been this hazy liquid discharge under my foreskin, kind of with some white stuff mixed in. It only seems to happen once or twice a day, not every time I go to the bathroom, but I do catch it when I'm urinating. There's no burning sensation, so that's good, but afterward, there's a mild itch that lingers for a short while. I remember something similar happened around six months ago. Any idea what this might be or what I should do? I'm curious and a bit worried.
Your symptoms, including intermittent penile discharge, white-colored stuff, and mild itchiness, could be indicative of a fungal or bacterial infection, such as balanitis or urethritis, or possibly a sexually transmitted infection (STI), and it's essential to consult a urologist or a dermatologist for a proper evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment plan, especially since you've experienced similar symptoms in the past.
