Accepted Answer

Its normal for sexual duration to vary, but if youre unhappy, techniques like pelvic floor exercises, using the "start-stop" method, or consulting a doctor for guidance on premature ejaculation can help. A healthy lifestyle and open communication with your partner also play a big role.

Question 3

I've been experiencing some tender pain at the top of my left testicle, and sometimes it even seems like the shape of it isn't quite round. Walking or touching that area makes the pain worse. I'm not sure if I should see a gynecologist or if a genera...

Accepted Answer

You should consult a urologist, not a gynecologist, as they specialize in male reproductive health; a general physician can provide an initial evaluation, but a urologist is better equipped to diagnose and treat potential issues like epididymitis, orchitis, testicular torsion, or varicocele; schedule an appointment to discuss your symptoms and undergo a physical examination to determine the cause of the pain and abnormal testicular shape.

Question 4

I've been dealing with this ongoing issue where the foreskin on my penis gets really tender and then cracks. This seems to happen quite oftenit heals and then just cracks again. I'm getting a bit worried about it. What could be causing this, and how ...

Accepted Answer

You may be experiencing a condition called balanitis, which is inflammation of the foreskin. I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole (Canesten) twice a day for 2 weeks to treat any possible fungal infection. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, and avoiding harsh soaps or irritants can help prevent further cracking. If the symptoms persist, it is important to see a doctor for further evaluation and management.

To alleviate the discomfort, apply a topical antibiotic cream, keep the area clean, and avoid further irritation if the pain persists, or you experience difficulty urinating, increased redness, or swelling, consult a urologist for further guidance.
