Question

I'm wondering about the safety of anal sex when done with just my wife and if there's any risk involved with ejaculating inside. Could you share some advice on this?

I've done a semen culture test and it says I have a bacteria called staphylococcus aureus with moderate growth. I'm not sure what this means. I had a urinary infection a year ago that didn't seem to go away, and after some tests, I found out I had a bacteria called proteus which got cured with medicine. But now, a month after treatment, the semen test is showing this new bacteria. Can you explain what staphylococcus aureus is and which type of doctor I should talk to about fixing this issue?

Question

I'm a bit concerned about my penis, as it tends to bend when erect. Are there any exercises or techniques that could help improve this situation? I'm really looking for some guidance on what to do.
