I'm having trouble pulling back the foreskin on my penis, and it's causing a really uncomfortable tightness at the tip during full erections and when trying to insert. On top of that, I'm dealing with premature ejaculation. Should I be seeing a urologist for this, or is a general surgeon the better option? Also, is there a connection between this issue with my foreskin, phimosis I think it's called, and premature ejaculation?

You should consult a urologist, as they specialize in genital and urinary tract issues, including phimosis (difficulty retracting the foreskin) and premature ejaculation (PE); while phimosis and PE can coexist, they are not directly related, but treating phimosis through circumcision, preputioplasty, or frenuloplasty may help alleviate discomfort and tightness, which could indirectly improve PE symptoms, and a urologist can assess and address both concerns.

I'm worried because I tore my frenulum a few days ago, and I'm wondering how long it'll take to heal. How can I tell when it's fully healed?

The healing time for a torn frenulum can vary depending on the severity of the tear. In general, it may take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks for the frenulum to heal completely. You will know it is healed when the pain and any bleeding have stopped, and the skin appears to be fully healed without any open wounds or scabs. To help with the healing process, you can keep the area clean and dry, avoid any activities that may cause further injury, and consider using over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen to manage any discomfort. If you experience persistent pain, excessive bleeding, or signs of infection, it is important to seek medical attention.

I'm having an issue where I finish really quickly the first time I have sex, but then after about an hour, I can last much longer, like 45 minutes. This leaves my partner unsatisfied after the first round. I'm really looking for ways to last longer the first time. What can I do to improve this?

1. _Skin Irritation_: Combining two products with different active ingredients can increase the risk of skin irritation, such as redness, itching, or burning. 2. _Unstable pH Levels_: Eskinol and Myra-E may have different pH levels, which can disrupt the skin's natural pH balance when combined. 3. _Ineffective or Reduced Efficacy_: Mixing two products can dilute or alter their individual effects, reducing their overall efficacy. _Instead_ 1. _Use products separately_: Apply Eskinol and Myra-E separately, following their individual instructions and recommendations. 2. _Consult a dermatologist_: If you're unsure about combining products or have specific skin concerns, consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.

My penis size is very small and thin only 3.5 inches when erect. I really want to increase it. Does jelqing actually work? Also, does low testosterone affect size? And if there's a hormone imbalance, is it possible to grow my penis without surgery?

There's no scientific evidence that it works, and it might cause side effects like pain, irritation, and bruises. Rarely, jelqing can cause curving of the penis or erectile dysfunction. Talk to a doctor or sex therapist before you try jelqing or any other technique you find online
