I'm really concerned about the size of my penis and I'm hoping for some advice on how to increase it. Right now, when it's hard, it's about 5 inches, but I wish it were a bit larger. Can you offer any suggestions on this?

It's completely normal to have concerns about body image, but it's important to understand that size and thickness are often less significant than factors like intimacy, trust, and communication in relationships. There are no proven medications or treatments for increasing penis thickness. If you're still concerned, I recommend speaking to a urologist for personalized advice and support.

Should I consider getting circumcision done along with this procedure?

Frenuloplasty addresses a tight or short frenulum, the small skin fold connecting the foreskin to the glans. The procedure involves releasing the frenulum to improve retraction and reduce pain during erections. While circumcisicircumcision removes the entire foreskin, frenuloplasty focuses on the frenulum itself, preserving the foreskin

I'm experiencing some discomfort and it's been worrying me. It started with pain in my lower abdomen, and after a while, I began feeling pain in my penis and the nearby pelvic area. I've had IBS for quite some time, and I'm wondering if this penile pain could be related to my lower abdomen issues and IBS. Does that make sense? Could they be connected?

Recurrent vaginal yeast infections can be challenging to manage. Since you've already taken two doses of fluconazole (FAS 3-kit) and still experience recurring infections, it's essential to consider other factors contributing to the recurrence. *Possible Reasons for Recurrence* 1. *Hormonal changes*: Your periods might be triggering the recurrence due to hormonal fluctuations. 2. *Incomplete treatment*: The initial treatment might not have fully cleared the infection. 3. *Underlying medical conditions*: Certain conditions, such as diabetes, can increase the risk of recurrent yeast infections. 4. *Antibiotic use*: Recent antibiotic use can disrupt the natural balance of vaginal flora, leading to yeast overgrowth. *Next Steps* 1. *Consult your gynecologist again*: Discuss your recurring symptoms and ask about further treatment options. 2. *Consider alternative treatments*: Your doctor might recommend alternative antifungal medications, such as clotrimazole or miconazole, or a longer treatment course. 3. *Maintain good hygiene and lifestyle habits*: Continue to follow your doctor's advice on hygiene, fluid intake, and dietary changes. 4. *Probiotics and dietary supplements*: Certain probiotics and dietary supplements, such as lactobacillus acidophilus, may help maintain a healthy vaginal flora. *Fluconazole Use* While you can take another dose of fluconazole, it's essential to consult your doctor first. They will assess your situation and determine the best course of action.
