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 a 32-year-old guy and for the last couple of days, I've been experiencing this really mild pain and a kind of vibration in my left testicle that sometimes shoots down to my left leg. It's pretty weird and has me a bit worried since I've already had an ultrasound on my lower abdomen, and everything came back normal. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

Possible Causes of Lumps* 1. *Bartholin's cysts*: These cysts can develop on either side of the vaginal opening and are usually painless. 2. *Folliculitis*: An infection of the hair follicles, which can cause redness, swelling, and pus-filled bumps. 3. *Boils or abscesses*: Similar to the boil you had two weeks ago, these can be caused by bacterial infections. 4. *Ingrown hairs*: Hair growing back into the skin can cause redness, swelling, and bumps. 5. *Sexually transmitted infections (STIs)*: Certain STIs, such as herpes or genital warts, can cause lumps or bumps in the genital area. *What to Do* 1. *Consult a healthcare professional*: Schedule an appointment with a gynecologist or primary care physician to get a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. 2. *Keep the area clean*: Practice good hygiene by washing the area with soap and water. 3. *Avoid squeezing or popping*: Refrain from squeezing or popping the lumps, as this can lead to further infection. 4. *Wear loose, breathable clothing*: Tight clothing can irritate the area and make symptoms worse. 5. *Avoid sexual activity*: Until you've consulted a healthcare professional and received a proper diagnosis, it's best to avoid sexual activity to prevent the potential spread of infection.

I tried to get my penis erect by watching porn today, but it just didn't work. Is this something normal? Would love to know what you think.

It's not uncommon for people to experience temporary difficulty achieving an erection due to factors like stress, fatigue, or even performance anxiety. If this issue persists, it could be helpful to evaluate your overall physical and mental health, and consulting a healthcare provider might be beneficial for further guidance.

My dad's PSA level is 8.62 and his prostate weighs 65 grams. The MRI shows BPH but everything else looks normal. Should he consider surgery or can this be managed with medication?

A PSA level of 8.62, combined with a 65-gram prostate and a BPH diagnosis from an MRI, suggests that medication may be a good first approach, but surgery could be considered if symptoms are bothersome or if medication is not effective, according to the Cleveland Clinic and the Mayo Clinic. A biopsy is not automatically indicated with these findings, but your doctor will likely discuss this further with you based on the MRI results and your father's symptoms.
