How long does a urinary tract infection take to show up?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The incubation period (time of exposure to time symptoms begin) varies with the microbe. In general, common urinary tract infections with colonizing bacteria, like E. coli, varies from about three to eight days.

View allI've been having some issues with my sperm as it discharges too quickly and it's not strong on the bottom side. I usually masturbate about twice a week. Is that not good for my health? I'm worried and would love to hear your advice.
Sounds like you may be experiencing issues with premature ejaculation and weak ejaculation force. To help improve your condition, you can try taking a medication called **Dapoxetine**. Additionally, you can also consider taking **L-Arginine** supplements to help improve sperm quality and strength. Remember to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new medication.

Is it normal if I cum in just a few seconds?
The average time from the beginning of intercourse to ejaculation is about five minutes. If it happens before 1 minute then it's usually considered as pre mature ejaculation which has many reasons.

I'm a bit concerned because this is my first time trying to have penetrative sex with my girlfriend, and I couldn't maintain an erection after getting one during foreplay. Could this be related to my masturbation habit? I've been doing it almost daily for about 10 years, so I'm wondering if that might affect things. What do you think?
It's common to experience difficulty maintaining an erection during first-time penetrative sex due to nerves or anxiety. Masturbation, especially if done frequently, can sometimes affect sensitivity or performance, but it's usually not the main cause. If this continues, consider talking to a healthcare professional to address any underlying concerns and reduce anxiety.
