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.

i'm 27 with a slim build and my penis is small and thin is it possible to increase the size without surgery i'm really concerned about this

Non-surgical options like vacuum devices or PRP have limited evidence; surgery remains the only reliable way to increase penile size.

Is there a way to increase penis size? I'm worried because my erection size is about 5.1, but it's really small when flaccid, almost like it's squeezed. Could my daily masturbation habit be affecting this, and what can I do about it?

It's important to understand that daily masturbation is not likely to cause a permanent decrease in penis size. Penis size can vary significantly among individuals and can be influenced by factors such as genetics, hormonal levels, and overall health. If you're concerned about your size or experience discomfort, its a good idea to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying conditions and discuss safe, evidence-based options for improving sexual health.
