View allI'm a bit concerned because this is my first time trying to have penetrative sex with my girlfriend, and I couldn't maintain an erection after getting one during foreplay. Could this be related to my masturbation habit? I've been doing it almost daily for about 10 years, so I'm wondering if that might affect things. What do you think?
It's common to experience difficulty maintaining an erection during first-time penetrative sex due to nerves or anxiety. Masturbation, especially if done frequently, can sometimes affect sensitivity or performance, but it's usually not the main cause. If this continues, consider talking to a healthcare professional to address any underlying concerns and reduce anxiety.

I'm really struggling with balanitis, and I've tried clotrimazole, ketoconazole, and onabet without much success. Do you have any other suggestions or treatments that might be more effective? I'm concerned nothing is working, and I could really use some help on what to try next.
For balanitis that is not responding to clotrimazole, ketoconazole, or onabet, you can try using Terbinafine cream. Apply Terbinafine cream twice daily on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks. Make sure to keep the affected area clean and dry, and avoid any potential irritants.
