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 experiencing something that's been bothering me. Whenever my penis gets erect, sperm starts leaking, and after a while, it flows out. I also seem to be having issues with night emissions. Plus, when my penis becomes erect, it doesn't stay straight; it bends slightly to the right. Could you offer some advice on how to deal with these issues?

It sounds like you're experiencing a few concerns related to erectile function and nocturnal emissions. It's important to consult a healthcare professional, such as a urologist, to evaluate these issues in detail and determine any underlying causes. A proper diagnosis can help guide effective treatment options.
