View allI'm curious about recovery after my varicocele and hydrocele surgery done on January 3rd. When is it safe to get back to normal sexual activities like having sex or masturbating? I'm a bit worried about doing anything too soon.

I'm worried about something that happened recently. There was just a tiny bit of precum on my finger, and I wiped it off quickly with a cloth. After a few minutes, I touched my girlfriend's vagina. I can't remember if I actually inserted my finger or not, but I'm pretty sure I didn't. Is there any chance she could become pregnant from this? We're both virgins, there was no penetration, and I didn't ejaculate. This happened on Tuesday, the 11th of September 2018, and her last period started on the 25th of August. Her cycle usually lasts 28 days. Can you please give me some advice? I'm really concerned.

I've been prone masturbating for the past five years and just realized what it could lead to. I've tried using my hands, but it really didn't work for me. When I tried prone again, it worked. Does it usually take time to get used to using hands? I really don't want to go prone again. Is it normal for someone who's been doing this for five or six years to have trouble adjusting to using their hands?
