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?

I'm really concerned about an issue I've been dealing with. I was addicted to prone masturbation for about 10 years, and even though I stopped two years ago, I feel like my penis is damaged. The base is very smooth, there's a bend to the left, and I can't maintain an erection for more than a few seconds. It's been really affecting me mentally. What can I do to address this problem?
-It's understandable that you're feeling distressed by this issue. The changes in your penis, like smoothness, bending, and short-lasting erections, could be related to long-term habits. I recommend consulting a urologist who can assess your condition and

I'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.
