It's important to address any concerns about sexual performance with your healthcare provider, as factors like stress, anxiety, or physical health may play a role. Instead of relying on capsules, focusing on relaxation, communication with your partner, and possibly seeing a specialist for personalized advice can be more effective for improving stamina.

I'm curious about something that's been worrying me. I've been masturbating daily for the last six months and I'm concerned about whether this could be harmful or have any side effects. How often is it okay to masturbate? I'm also a bit anxious because I haven't had any children yet. Could this habit affect my marriage or my chances of having children in the future? I would appreciate some guidance on this.

I've been having this issue where after I ejaculate, I get a burning sensation and it feels kind of weird inside my penis. It doesn't happen every time, but even when it's not burning, there's this strange feeling that lingers for a while after. I'm a bit worried about what this could mean. Do you have any idea what's going on or how I can fix it?
When you experience a burning sensation inside your penis after ejaculation, it could be due to inflammation or infection in the urinary tract or prostate. I recommend you to take a course of antibiotics like Ciprofloxacin to treat any possible infection. Additionally, you can take Ibuprofen for pain relief and to reduce inflammation. Make sure to drink plenty of water to help flush out any bacteria. If the symptoms persist, it is important to consult a doctor before starting any new medication.
