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?

Treating Frenulum Breve and Penile Curvature: Options and Precautions_
Given your concerns, here's a summary of possible treatments for frenulum breve and penile curvature:
Medical Treatments
- Frenuloplasty: A surgical procedure to lengthen the frenulum, relieving tension and reducing curvature.
- Frenectomy: A surgical procedure to remove the frenulum, which can help alleviate curvature and tightness.
Non-Surgical Treatments
- Manual stretching: Gentle, manual stretching of the frenulum can help lengthen it over time.
- Frenulum stretchers: Devices specifically designed to stretch the frenulum, available online or through medical suppliers.
- Topical creams or gels: Certain creams or gels, such as those containing hyaluronic acid or glycerin, may help reduce friction and promote frenulum stretching.
Home Remedies
- Warm compresses: Applying warm compresses to the frenulum area may help increase blood flow and promote relaxation.
- Massage: Gentle massage of the frenulum area may help reduce tension and promote stretching.
Precautions
- Consult a healthcare professional: Before attempting any treatment, consult a urologist, dermatologist, or primary care physician to discuss the best course of action.
- Avoid over-stretching: Be cautious not to over-stretch the frenulum, as this can cause injury or scarring.
- Monitor progress: Regularly monitor your progress and adjust your treatment approach as needed.

View allMy dad just had an ultrasound done, and they found an 11 mm stone in his right kidney. He's not feeling any pain or discomfort right now. Should we be considering surgery, or are there medications that might help with this? What do you think?
11mm is a big stone. It is unlikely to pass on its own. Better to get it removed

I'm really into fitness and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular gym workouts and a balanced diet. But I'm kind of worried about something that I haven't found a clear answer for. Does masturbation more than twice a week have any negative effects on my health? And if I do it on consecutive days, is that harmful in any way? Just trying to understand if it's affecting my fitness journey or overall health in any way.
Yes you can take no problem.

I've been wondering about the effects of daily masturbation over many years. I'm 28 now, could this habit be lowering my testosterone levels? Also, are there other factors or things I should be aware of that might be causing low testosterone?
Daily masturbation does not significantly impact testosterone levels in a healthy 28-year-old. However, chronic stress, poor diet, lack of sleep, obesity, and certain medical conditions (e.g., hypogonadism) can contribute to low testosterone levels. It's important to maintain a healthy lifestyle for optimal hormone balance.
