I've been using delay spray for the past 7-8 years to help with PE, but I haven't really paid attention to the instructions all that time. Now my partner and I are trying for a baby and there's a chance we might have conceived, but nothing is confirmed yet. I'm just worried if the delay spray could have any effects on conceiving or on the embryo or fetus that's developing. Could it be a potential issue?

Delay sprays typically contain local anesthetics like lidocaine or benzocaine, which are generally considered safe for external use in small amounts. However, prolonged or excessive use could potentially affect sperm motility. Its advisable to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice, especially when trying to conceive.

I'm really worried about something. My penis seems really small, like what you'd expect for a 5-year-old child, when I'm not watching any porn or thinking about sex. But when I do think about sex, it only grows very slowly and doesn't get much bigger or longer, kind of like a child's. What should I do about this?

I'm having trouble with premature ejaculation, and it's really affecting my newly married life. I tried consulting a doctor who recommended using LOX2 jelly for three months, but I'm still not seeing any improvement. What else can I do? I'm still ejaculating in about 20 to 30 seconds and it's quite frustrating.
