I'm married and have been trying for a month to have intercourse with my wife, but I'm having issues because I can't maintain an erection. It's affecting our intimacy, and I'm worried because I can't satisfy her fully. It's bending and not working as it should. What could be the cause of this? What can I do to resolve it?

You may be experiencing erectile dysfunction. I recommend you try using Viagra (Sildenafil) 50mg to 100mg about 1 hour before sexual activity. This medication can help improve blood flow to the penis and support a stronger erection. Remember to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

I'm curious if eating raw garlic on an empty stomach in the morning might help with erection issues and premature ejaculation. Have you heard of this working for anyone, and is it something worth trying?

Consuming raw garlic on an empty stomach may have some health benefits due to its potential to improve blood circulation, but there is limited scientific evidence supporting its effectiveness in treating erectile dysfunction (ED) or premature ejaculation (PE). For more effective treatment, it's important to consult a healthcare provider to identify underlying causes and explore appropriate therapies.

i have phimosis and cant retract my foreskin even when masturbating is it possible to have sex without retracting or do i need surgery i can move the skin a little but cant wear a condom properly

It's possible to have sex with phimosis, even without full retraction, but it may be uncomfortable or painful. Using a condom and ample lubricant can help. However, if the foreskin is severely tight, sexual activity could cause tearing or pain. Surgery (circumcision) might be recommended in more severe cases, but it's not always necessary

I'm 36 and happily married, but I've been running into a pretty embarrassing issueduring sex, my sperm seems to release too quickly. I'm not on any medications right now, but I do smoke about twice a day. Could there be something I'm missing, or maybe a medicine I should consider?

You should visit a sexologist to confirm a diagnosis of PE (premature ejaculation). The treatment of PE is dependant upon the severity of the condition. Lifestyle modifications to help your condition include cessation of smoking, stress control techniques such as meditationyoga and physical activity of at least 30 minutes per day.
