I'm experiencing a lot of pain during sex and I'm not sure if it's because of a short frenulum or something else. I also have a hard time opening it properly when it becomes erect. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing pain due to a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is too tight to be pulled back over the head of the penis. This can be caused by a short frenulum. I recommend using a topical steroid cream like Betamethasone (0.05%) to help loosen the foreskin. Apply a small amount to the tight area twice a day for about 4-6 weeks. If this does not improve your symptoms, you may need to consider a circumcision or a frenuloplasty procedure. Please consult with a urologist for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been measuring and my penis is around 7.5 inches which seems decent, but I'm noticing it looks a bit thinner than I'd like. I'm really curious, is there a way to increase its thickness?
It's normal for penises to vary in shape and size. While there are no guaranteed methods to increase thickness significantly, exercises like jelqing or treatments such as dermal fillers may help, but it's best to consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice and to address any concerns.

My penis curves to the left and it's been bothering me. Are there any non-surgical options like traction devices that can help straighten it? What would you recommend trying first?
For penile curvature, a common non-surgical approach is penile traction therapy, which uses a device to gently stretch the penis and potentially help straighten it. While many traction devices are available, starting with a device that offers gentle and consistent stretching is generally recommended.

I'm worried because my sperm liquefaction time is over an hour. Everything else in my sperm report looks normal, but I'm concerned this might be affecting my wife's ability to conceive. Do you have any advice on how I can reduce the liquefaction time?
Liquefaction time is a measure of the time it takes for the semen to liquefy.semen liquefaction should take 20-30 minutes. With liquefaction time, infection and dehydration could be the cause of liquefaction.... If it's dehydration you don'tworry... If it's due to infection it has to be treated...
