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 dealing with phimosis and really want to avoid getting circumcised. I'm strictly against any surgical solutions. I'm wondering if there are any natural remedies that could help me out? Or maybe some kind of steroid ointment or exercises that might work?
