Can doing masturbation every day lead to weak erections? Ive heard that excessive masturbation might have some side effects. Should I be worried if I'm experiencing this?

Excessive masturbation can lead to temporary weak erections, decreased libido, or desensitization, but it does not typically cause permanent damage; daily masturbation can lead to fatigue, decreased sensitivity, and potential negative impacts on relationships and daily life; other potential side effects of excessive masturbation include guilt, shame, anxiety, decreased focus, and neglect of responsibilities.

Can homeopathic medicines help me avoid surgery, or would lithotripsy be an option if they don't work? I'm worried about needing an operation.

I've been experiencing something a bit odd and I'm not sure if I should be worried. When I start off, everything seems fine and I get an erection, but after about 23 minutes, I go soft. However, if I take a little break and focus on kissing, it gets erect again. Is this a normal pattern, or is there something I should be concerned about?

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.
