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.

View allI'm currently in the hospital for a bad pain I was having, and they found a 5.7mm stone near my kidney. It shrank to 3mm, and now I'm thinking about switching to homeopathic treatment. Is it wise to leave the hospital for that? I've heard about this leaf called pather chatta that might help. Should I go for it, or could the pain come back?
Possible Causes_ 1. _Insufficient lubrication_: As you mentioned, inadequate lubrication during sex can cause friction, leading to swelling and pain. 2. _Vaginal infections_: Yeast infections, bacterial vaginosis, or other infections can cause swelling, pain, and discomfort. 3. _Irritation or allergic reactions_: Exposure to certain products, such as soaps, douches, or condoms, can cause irritation and allergic reactions. 4. _Trauma or injury_: Physical trauma or injury to the vaginal area can cause swelling and pain. _Self-Care and Remedies_ 1. _Apply cold compresses_: A cold compress or an ice pack wrapped in a cloth can help reduce swelling and ease pain. 2. _Keep the area clean_: Gently clean the vaginal area with mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid using harsh products or douching. 3. _Use lubricants_: Apply a water-based or silicone-based lubricant during sex to reduce friction and discomfort. 4. _Avoid irritants_: Refrain from using products that may cause irritation, such as scented soaps or bubble baths. _When to Seek Medical Attention_ 1. _Severe pain or swelling_: If the pain or swelling is severe, or if you experience difficulty walking or urinating. 2. _Discharge or odor_: If you notice an unusual discharge or a strong, unpleasant odor. 3. _Fever_: If you have a fever over 101.5F (38.6C). 4. _Persistent symptoms_: If the symptoms persist or worsen despite self-care and remedies.

I've been dealing with some issues related to urination and I'm worried it might be connected to my past habits. I started masturbating when I was 16, but I've stopped for over a year now. Even so, I'm experiencing night falls and a delay in urination. Could this be related to what I used to do, or might there be another cause? I'm really concerned and wondering what steps I should take to address this.
It's good that you've stopped the habit, but it may take time for your body to fully adjust. Difficulty with urination and nightfall can sometimes be related to underlying factors like stress, hormonal changes, or prostate health. I recommend consulting a healthcare provider to evaluate your symptoms and discuss potential treatment options.

Every time I have sex with my wife, I end up with cuts on my foreskin. It's the same problem after I masturbate too. It's really painful, and the itching while they heal is driving me crazy. Could you recommend a cream or ointment that'll help with this?
You may be experiencing some irritation or friction during sexual activity leading to cuts on your foreskin. I recommend using an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin or Bacitracin. Apply a thin layer of the ointment on the cuts twice a day after gently cleaning the area with mild soap and water. Additionally, you can also use a soothing cream like Aloe Vera gel to help with the healing process and reduce itching. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent infection.
