My foreskin doesn't retract like it should it's not super tight but still won't go back. I'd rather avoid surgery are there any medications or treatments that could help with this?

If your foreskin isn't fully retracting and you'd like to avoid surgery, a topical steroid cream or ointment is often recommended. These medications can help soften and loosen the foreskin, making retraction easier. In some cases, gentle stretching exercises can also be beneficial.

Question 3

I'm 26 and I've been masturbating regularly since I was 16. Lately, I've noticed that my penis seems smaller and it won't get erect unless I'm watching porn or engaging in phone sex. I'm really worried about this and I'm not sure what to do. Could this be a real problem? Any advice would be appreciated.

Accepted Answer

It's common to develop certain habits like relying on porn or phone sex for arousal, which can affect natural stimulation. This doesn't mean permanent damage. Try reducing reliance on porn gradually, focus on healthy lifestyle changes, and consult a doctor or therapist for personalized guidance to address concerns about erectile health and confidence.
