Circumcision and Premature Ejaculation:
- Circumcision is not a reliable or recommended treatment for premature ejaculation (PE).
- PE involves ejaculating sooner than desired and can have complex causes, including psychological and medical factors.
Understanding Circumcision:
- It involves the surgical removal of the foreskin, often for medical, cultural, or religious reasons.
- Scientific evidence does not support it as a cure for PE.
Effective Treatments for PE:
- Behavioral techniques and counseling.
- Topical anesthetics and medications prescribed by a healthcare professional.
Recommendation:
- Consult a urologist or sexual health specialist for personalized advice and treatment options. Avoid considering circumcision solely as a solution for PE without professional guidance.

Whenever I drink water, I seem to need to urinate almost immediately, and it's starting to make me a bit anxious. I'm a 22-year-old male. Is this something I should be worried about?

Its natural to urinate after drinking water, but if you're noticing it happening very frequently or urgently, it might be worth keeping an eye on. Sometimes, increased frequency can be linked to hydration levels, diet, or even stress. If it continues or worsens, it could be a good idea to consult a doctor just to rule out any underlying issues.
