I've noticed that the skin on the upper part of my penis doesn't open up properly, and the last time I had sex, it started bleeding and was really painful. I'm not sure what to do about it. Could you give me some advice?

It sounds like you may have experienced a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is too tight to retract fully. It's important to avoid any further trauma to the area. I recommend seeing a healthcare provider, preferably a urologist, for a proper examination and treatment options, which may include topical treatments or, in some cases, a minor surgical procedure.

The exposed head of your penis (glans) will feel sensitive for the first two weeks; however, this will soon settle. After you have recovered from surgery, you can engage in sex as you did before.1

I'm worried about something that happened recently. There was just a tiny bit of precum on my finger, and I wiped it off quickly with a cloth. After a few minutes, I touched my girlfriend's vagina. I can't remember if I actually inserted my finger or not, but I'm pretty sure I didn't. Is there any chance she could become pregnant from this? We're both virgins, there was no penetration, and I didn't ejaculate. This happened on Tuesday, the 11th of September 2018, and her last period started on the 25th of August. Her cycle usually lasts 28 days. Can you please give me some advice? I'm really concerned.

I'm a bit worried because the foreskin of my penis used to be attached to the tip, but now it's come down and the head is exposed. It's super sensitive to touch, and I'd really appreciate some advice on how to make it less sensitive. Also, the foreskin isn't going back to the tip. I'm not sure why this is happening, and any help on both these issues would be great.
