Question 1

I'm a bit concerned about how often I should be masturbating. Are there any health effects from doing it? Like, is there a recommended number of times a week or month that's considered healthy? I just want to make sure I'm not overdoing it.

Accepted Answer

Masturbation is a normal and healthy part of human sexuality, with no serious physical or mental health effects when done in moderation; a healthy frequency can vary, but general guidelines suggest 2-3 times a week is normal, while excessive masturbation (more than 1-2 times a day) can lead to issues like fatigue, guilt, or decreased sexual sensitivity.

Question 2

I'm really worried about something and could use some advice. If my penis only goes about 2 inches inside the vagina, is that enough to cause pregnancy? I also have issues with penis erection and premature ejaculation, and it's causing me a lot of st...

Accepted Answer

A penetration of at least 4-6 inches is generally considered sufficient for sperm to reach the cervix. I have some sexual problems with penis erection and premature ejaculation. For erectile dysfunction, you can try using Viagra (Sildenafil). For premature ejaculation, you can try using Priligy (Dapoxetine). Make sure to consult a specialist before starting any new medication.

Question 3

Is it okay to use saliva as a lubricant during sex or masturbation? I'm just wondering if there are any health concerns or risks I should be aware of.

Accepted Answer

Using saliva as a lubricant during sex or masturbation is not recommended as it can increase the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV, herpes, and gonorrhea, and may also cause vaginal or anal irritation, yeast infections, or other infections; instead, opt for water-based or silicone-based lubricants

Question 4

I've been struggling with balanitis for the past couple of months. I tried using CandidB cream, but it only gives me temporary relief. Is there something else I should be doing or any long-term treatment options that could help?

Question 5

I'm masturbating about 12 times a day, and I'm worried about what kind of effects this might have on my health. Is there any medication or advice you could give me to help stop or cut back? I'm just concerned if it's doing any harm.

Accepted Answer

Masturbating 1-2 times a day is generally considered a normal and healthy part of human sexuality, but excessive masturbation can lead to physical and mental health issues, such as fatigue, guilt, and decreased productivity; if you feel it's impacting your daily life, consider consulting UROLOGIST

Reliable HIV testing after 6 years.

The 4th generation CMIA (Chemiluminescent Microparticle Immunoassay) antigen and antibody test is highly accurate.

Interpretation:

1. _Non-reactive result_: Indicates no detectable HIV antibodies or p24 antigens.
2. _6-year window period_: Well beyond the recommended 3-6 month window for HIV testing after exposure.

Nasal steroids:

1. _Unlikely to cause false negatives_: Steroids are not known to interfere with HIV tests.

You can be reasonably confident in your HIV-negative status. However, consider:

1. _Other STIs_: Get tested for other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) if you haven't already.
2. _Future risks_: Continue practicing safe sex and get regular HIV tests if you're sexually active.

Consult your doctor or an HIV specialist for personalized guidance and confirmation.
