I'm concerned about the size of my penis because it feels smaller than it used to be. I used to think it was long enough, but now I'm not so sure. I masturbate regularly, but not as often as I used to. Can you help me understand what's going on and if there's a way to make it bigger?

To address your concern, focus on overall penis health rather than solely pursuing enlargement methods; regular masturbation is normal, but excessive frequency may lead to temporary size fluctuations; consider maintaining a balanced lifestyle, including a healthy diet, regular exercise, stress management, and adequate sleep; also, be aware that there's no scientifically proven method to significantly increase penis size, and beware of unverified claims or products promising enlargement.

I'm really troubled by nightfall and it's been going on for 10 years now. I've tried various Ayurvedic and Unani medicines, but nothing seems to work. Can you help me understand why this is happening and what I can do to cure it?

Nightfall is a normal function of the body. It is the body's way of discharging the semen which gets collected. Don't fall into a trap by going for different types of treatments and waste your money. It is a natural process of the body and no medicine is required for it.
