I'm a bit concerned because my father has had laser prostate treatments twice before, once in 2011 when his prostate was 50mm, and then again in 2014 when it was 60mm. Despite that, he still has issues with prostate enlargement. By August 2015, his prostate had grown to 76mm. We decided to try ayurvedic treatment, and by October 2015, it's down to 56mm. Is this kind of fluctuation normal, and should we be worried about long-term effects or stability, especially since he has gone through both laser and ayurvedic treatments? Any advice on what to keep an eye on or consider moving forward?

I'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.

I'm 24 and about to get married, but I'm really worried because my penis is still small like a child's. The foreskin hasn't retracted properly, and it's painful when I try to pull it back. It doesn't seem to reach its full size either. Is there any surgery or treatment that can help increase the size? I'm really scared about how this will affect my married life. What should I do?
