I've been feeling really off because of this sensitivity issue with my penis after I masturbate. I hit it up and down, and then for days, it gets all tender and sore, coming and going. It's uncomfortable and bums me out. I'm uncircumcised, and a couple of days after masturbating, I touched and pressed the erect penis, and it got super sensitive where I hit it. Now, there's like a pain and itchiness where I pressed it. I couldn't pull back the foreskin completely until I was 11, but there wasn't any infection. Walking and running can feel really uncomfortable. Do you think this will go away on its own? Would love some advice.

It sounds like you may have experienced temporary sensitivity or soreness from friction or pressure during masturbation, especially around the foreskin area. This can cause discomfort and irritation, but it usually resolves with rest and avoiding further pressure or friction. If symptoms persist or worsen, it's a good idea to see a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation and to rule out any underlying issues.

I masturbate once a day and I'm curious if there's any harm in doing this regularly. It's become a nightly habit for me, and I'm just wondering if it might have any negative effects or if it's something I should worry about.

Masturbating once a day is generally considered normal for most individuals, as long as it doesn't interfere with daily activities, relationships, or cause any physical discomfort. It's important to listen to your body and ensure it doesn't become compulsive or negatively impact other aspects of your life. If you have concerns, its always a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

I've been dealing with overmasturbation for about 23 years, sometimes up to 12 times a day. In the past 12 months, I've been feeling really weak and facing issues with erections, along with other side effects. I'm turning 19 years old in June. Is there a way to permanently treat this? Can I fully recover and enjoy a healthy sexual life in the future? Please help me out here.

It's important to remember that while occasional masturbation is normal, excessive or compulsive behavior can lead to physical and mental exhaustion. Reducing the frequency and focusing on a healthy lifestyle, including proper diet, exercise, and mental well-being, can help restore balance. If you're facing persistent issues like erectile dysfunction, its a good idea to consult a healthcare professional who can provide personalized advice and support. Recovery is possible with the right approach!

I'm a 30-year-old guy who's not married yet, and I've been struggling with a small penis and not being able to last long. It's been really affecting my confidence and I'm worried about my future relationships. Is there any way I can get help with this?

The typical erect penis is usually 5 to 6 inches long with a circumference of 4 to 5 inches. There's more variation in the size of flaccid penises. Some guys are genuinely smaller than that. In rare cases, genetics and hormone problems cause a condition called micropenis -- an erect penis of under 3 inches. Sometimes Peyronie's disease can reduce a guy's size. Losing weight will reveal more of that hidden shaft that's buried beneath belly fat. It doesn't actually increase your size, but it will look that way...
