I'm really having trouble getting an erection lately no matter what I try, from watching porn to sexting or even phone sex, nothing seems to work. It's starting to worry me, and I feel like I've tried everything. Could there be something wrong or something I'm missing?

It's understandable to feel concerned about this. Difficulty in achieving an erection can be due to stress, anxiety, lifestyle factors, or underlying health issues like hormonal imbalances or circulatory problems. Please consider consulting a doctor to evaluate potential causes and explore effective treatments.

I'm really concerned because for the past couple of days, I've been having trouble getting an erection, whether I'm trying to be intimate with my partner or even just watching porn. What could be causing this issue, and should I be worried about it?

You may be experiencing erectile dysfunction. I recommend trying a medication like Viagra (Sildenafil) 50mg about 30 minutes to 1 hour before sexual activity. Make sure to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

I've been regularly having oral sex with my wife and I'm wondering if it's safe. Are there any precautions we should be aware of?

Oral sex with your wife is generally safe if both of you are healthy and practice good hygiene. It's important to ensure both partners are free from any infections or sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Regular dental checkups and using barriers like dental dams can help reduce risks, along with maintaining open communication about sexual health.

My foreskin pulls back fine when soft but doesn't go all the way down when I'm erect. A urologist recommended frenuloplasty but I'm wondering if this can get better without surgery. Is there any way to fix this naturally over time?

It's possible your foreskin tightness could improve without surgery, particularly if it's a mild case or if you're young. Gentle daily retraction exercises, along with topical steroid creams, can sometimes help loosen the foreskin and improve its ability to retract, especially when you're erect. However, if these non-surgical methods don't work, frenuloplasty (surgery to release the frenulum) may be recommended
