I'm having a problem with the skin on my penis not retracting during sex with my partner. It seems like it's not opening properly. I've been using oil whenever we have sex, but I'm not sure if that's okay. Is there something I should be doing differently, or should I be worried about this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing tightness of the foreskin, a condition known as phimosis, which can make it difficult for the skin to retract during sex. Applying a lubricant, such as oil, can help reduce friction, but its important to consult a doctor for an accurate diagnosis and explore treatment options, such as gentle stretching exercises or, in some cases, medical intervention.

I'm familiar with the Vigora tablet and what it's for, but I've never tried the Vigora jelly. Can you tell me how it works and how I should use it? When's the best time to take it before having sex, and what's the right way to use it?

Vigora jelly is used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. It contains sildenafil citrate, which helps increase blood flow to the penis. To use it, you can squeeze the contents of one sachet onto a spoon and swallow it approximately 15-30 minutes before sexual activity. It is recommended to take it on an empty stomach for best results. The effects can last for up to 4-6 hours. Remember to not take more than one sachet in a 24-hour period.
