Hey there, I'm having a bit of an uncomfortable issue that's popped up over the last couple of weeks. During sex, I'm finding myself finishing way too quickly, and it's got me a bit worried. I've been married for 9 years and we have 2 kids, and this is something totally new for me. Could you help me understand why this might be happening and what I could do about it?

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.

I'm married for a year now, and we're thinking about having kids. But I've been struggling because I haven't ejaculated even once in the past year. I also lose my erection when the vagina gets wet, and it feels like there's no hold during intercourse. I'm really confused about what's going on. Could it be because I haven't been circumcised? I'm looking for some advice.

You may be experiencing erectile dysfunction and difficulty with ejaculation. Circumcision is unlikely to be the cause of these issues. I recommend you consult with a doctor to rule out any underlying medical conditions. In the meantime, you can try medication like Viagra (sildenafil) to help with erectile dysfunction. Additionally, you can consider using medications like Clomiphene to improve sperm production and ejaculation.

I'm curious if masturbation can have any impact on my physical or mental health. I usually do it once or twice a week, and I'm wondering if it could cause me to lose weight or affect me in other ways. Could you help me understand this?

I have a 7.1x6.9mm epididymal cyst and noticed pus in my semen. I did a semen culture test and took meds but nothing changed. Are there other treatment options or would surgery be needed?

Given your persistent pus in semen despite antibiotic treatment for a suspected infection, and the presence of a 7.1x6.9mm epididymal cyst, further evaluation and potential surgical intervention should be considered. While antibiotics are the first line of defense against infection, if the pus persists, it could indicate a blockage or structural issue, potentially related to the cyst, that requires surgical removal (spermatocelectomy).
