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.

View allMy foreskin feels tight especially when I'm erect it only pulls halfway down and starts stretching uncomfortably which makes me lose my erection. When soft I can pull it down but my glans are super sensitive so I don't push it. Really worried about this and don't want surgery but not sure what else can help since I can't see a doctor right now. It's affecting my confidence a lot

I've been wondering about something that's been stressing me out a bit. So, I started masturbating when I was young but stopped when I was 15, and I was still a virgin then. I picked it up again at 18 after a three-year break. Initially, I tried to delay ejaculation, but after a few weeks, I started having issues. I'm going to the bathroom way more often, and I feel some pain in my penis and testicles. Even right after urinating, I still get this urgent feeling like I need to go again. Add to this, I lost my virginity and noticed that even after doing it quite a few times, I can't hold my ejaculation for more than a minute. I still masturbate regularly 'cause I can't really control the urge, and I'm really concerned. I can't help but wonder if these issues could be connected to my masturbation habits or not. Is this something that might mess with my sex life in the future, like after getting married? Any advice or solutions would be really appreciated.
Your issues with frequent urination and rapid ejaculation may be interrelated and potentially linked to your masturbation habits, particularly the practice of holding back ejaculation, which can lead to pelvic floor muscle dysfunction, prostate issues, and ejaculatory control problems; to address these issues, consider consulting a urologist or a sex therapist who can help you develop healthier masturbation habits, improve pelvic floor muscle function, and provide guidance on managing ejaculation and urinary frequency, which will be beneficial for your future sex life, including after marriage.
