  1. Menstruation: Men do not have menstrual periods because they lack the female reproductive organs, such as a uterus and ovaries, necessary for menstruation.

  2. Hormonal Changes: Men may experience hormonal changes or symptoms, but these are not equivalent to menstrual periods.

  3. Consultation: If there are concerns about hormonal health or symptoms, consulting a healthcare professional is recommended for personalized advice.

I have extra foreskin that completely covers my penis when it's normal. I saw someone with phimosis, but unlike them, I don't have any pain. I can pull the skin back almost 90%, but 10% doesn't stretch easily. I've always used condoms without any issues. Do I need to do anything about this, or is surgery the only option?

yes advised to the pt.

I'm really worried about something that's been happening and I hope you can help me out. I had protected sex a while back and noticed the condom had slipped a bit. A few days later, I found small bumps on my penis and went to a dermatologist who said it's molluscum contagiosum. They suggested I get a blood test after six weeks to check for things like HIV. I did the tests and thankfully they all came back non-reactive. I've been using the imiquad solution and the bumps seem to be shrinking, which is a relief, but now I'm dealing with penile discharge whenever I pass stool. Do you know what might be causing this or what I should do?

Its good to hear that your molluscum is improving with treatment. However, penile discharge during bowel movements may indicate an underlying issue, such as urethritis or infection. It would be best to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and to rule out any additional concerns.
