I'm having some problems that are really concerning me. Firstly, during sex, I notice that my penis seems to lose its hardness and takes quite some time to get firm again. Secondly, I'm worried about the size of my penis because the circumference seems small to me. Also, I'm not sure if it's normal that it bends downward instead of being straight. Could you let me know what might be causing these issues or what I might be able to do?

View allI'm wondering how soon I can have sex now that my kidney stent has been removed. I had a ureteroscopy and laser surgery on May 11, 2017, to take out a stone from my kidney, and they left a stent in for two weeks. It was just removed yesterday, and my urine is mostly clear now, with just a bit of blood. Can you advise me on whether it's safe to resume sexual activity and if there are any precautions I should take?
After the removal of your kidney stent, its generally safe to resume sexual activity once any discomfort or bleeding has subsided and you're feeling comfortable. However, it's important to listen to your bodyif there's still slight bleeding or discomfort, its best to wait a few more days. Always consult your doctor if you have any concerns.

I've been masturbating twice a day for the last 45 years, and I've never actually had sex with someone before. Last night, I tried to get intimate with my girlfriend, and I found out that my penis wasn't getting hard enough for sex. It was really disappointing, and now I'm worried. Any suggestions on what I should do?
It's natural to feel worried, but occasional difficulty with erections can happen due to stress, anxiety, or overthinking. Masturbation habits aren't usually the cause. Try to relax, focus on the moment, and reduce stress. If the issue persists, consulting a doctor can help rule out physical or psychological factors.

I've been experiencing something really concerning and I'm not sure what to do. About a month ago, after masturbating, I noticed blood in my urine for a day, but then it cleared up, so I stopped masturbating for about 23 days because I was scared. When I started again, there wasn't any blood at first. But then on March 11th, the bleeding happened again after I masturbated, and this time I also felt pain in my penis. It went away after a day, but then came back after a few days. I'm worried about why this is happening and what it could mean. Can you give me some advice?
It sounds like you may have experienced some irritation or injury to the urinary tract or reproductive organs during masturbation, which can occasionally cause blood in the urine. However, recurring blood in urine, especially with pain, should be evaluated by a healthcare professional to rule out conditions like infections, stones, or other underlying issues. Please consider seeking a consultation with a urologist for a proper diagnosis and peace of mind.
