I'm 29 and I'm dealing with a few issues that are really bothering me. My penis is small, and I have trouble with it not getting hard when I'm having sex. Plus, I end up finishing way too quickly. It's really affecting my confidence, and I just want my penis to be bigger and thicker. Can you give me some advice or suggest something that might help?

For increasing penis size and improving hardness, you can consider taking Viagra (Sildenafil) 50mg before sexual activity. For premature ejaculation, you can try Dapoxetine 30mg. Both medications can help improve your sexual performance. However, it is important to consult with a doctor before starting any new medication to ensure it is safe for you.
