I'm dealing with a bad smell coming from under my foreskin, and it's making me a bit worried. There's also some mild itching going on. I've tried washing it, but the smell just keeps coming back the next day. Could you please give me some advice on what might be happening and how to fix it?

It sounds like you may have a yeast infection or balanitis. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice a day for 1-2 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the symptoms persist, consult a doctor for further evaluation.

I've been having some issues during sex where I end up ejaculating really quickly, which leaves me and my partner feeling pretty disappointed. I also noticed that my penis seems to lose its size pretty fast during sex. I'm really looking for some advice on how to handle these problems. Any tips on what I can do?

Hey there, I'm having a bit of an uncomfortable issue that's popped up over the last couple of weeks. During sex, I'm finding myself finishing way too quickly, and it's got me a bit worried. I've been married for 9 years and we have 2 kids, and this is something totally new for me. Could you help me understand why this might be happening and what I could do about it?
