I'm really worried because I've been masturbating for about 5 years, and now my penis looks different, kind of out of shape. I'm not sure if this will affect my ability to have kids in the future once I get married. On top of that, my legs have gotten really thin, and I feel pain in all my joints. My testicles are also quite painful. Did I somehow damage my penis? Could you help me understand what's going on?

Masturbation itself does not typically cause permanent damage to the penis or reproductive health; however, your symptoms, such as penis shape concerns, joint pain, thin legs, and testicular pain, may be related to other factors, including over-masturbation, which can lead to temporary issues like fatigue, muscle strain, or inflammation; consider consulting a urologist

Question

I'm someone who experiences quick erections and rapid release of sperm, but it's very watery. I'm curious about how I can improve my stamina for longer erections. What can I do about this?

I've recently gotten my semen analysis results back and everything seems normal except for my PUS cell count, which is at 57 hpf, while the epithelial count is only present in small amounts. Could this high PUS cell count be affecting my fertility? My wife and I are having trouble conceiving, and I'm wondering if this might be the issue. Should I see a doctor for this, or can taking a good antibiotic help resolve it?

Question

I've been having some weird experiences at night. A few days ago, I just woke up out of nowhere feeling like I couldn't catch my breath. It's not like anything I could control, you know? Plus, I've noticed that I'm needing to get up and pee a lot during the night, and sometimes my back starts to hurt. Do you think all these things could be connected or something?
