I've been wondering about a few things and wanted to get your advice. I'm curious if a penis size of 12-13 cm is considered good for sex, and are there any natural ways to increase size? Also, I tend to release sperm quite quickly, often within a minute, and I wonder how I might control that better. Does masturbation actually make your penis size smaller? I'd love some recommendations on foods that could help with penis enlargement and improving sperm health. Is it okay to shave regularly down there, and I also spend a lot of time nude at home; could that be harmful in any way?

I've been wondering about a few things. I'm a 17-year-old guy and I've been masturbating since I was 16. Lately, I've heard some stuff that has me a bit worried. Does masturbating lead to hair loss or affect the levels of protein and calcium in my body? And does the body actually produce semen every day? I'm just curious and would appreciate some guidance.
