I'm a bit worried because I used to have random and morning erections, which I assumed were normal, but for the past month they've stopped completely. I also feel like my sex drive has really decreased. Is this something I should be concerned about, or could it be a normal phase?

It's not uncommon for sexual drive and erections to fluctuate due to factors like stress, lifestyle changes, or hormonal imbalances. However, if youve noticed a persistent decrease in libido and erectile function, it might be helpful to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues like hormonal imbalances or other health conditions.

I'm a 17-year-old guy and I'm really worried about a few things. I've got a pretty small penis, like about 3 inches, and I've been masturbating every day for the past three years. I just can't seem to stop. I'm also dealing with premature ejaculation, which happens really fast, and there are wrinkles on my penis. Is there any way to increase penis size or help with these issues?

If you have a problem with obtaining and maintaining erections, you can seek help from a sexual health expert, who can prescribe you medication to deal with Erectile Dysfunction, and also Premature Ejaculation. If you are referring to increasing the size of the erect penis, there is no medication to facilitate that. Cosmetic surgeries are possible, but often expensive and rare. You can visit a specialist for further information on the matter.

My foreskin is really tight and I'm not sure if I need surgery for it. Can a video consultation help figure that out or should I go see a doctor in person?

circumcision is advised.

I masturbate almost every day and I'm wondering if that's okay or if it could be a problem. Im also curious about ways to last longer when ejaculating. If I decide to cut down on how often I masturbate, is it manageable? Is once a day considered normal?

Normal, nothing to worry ok.
