I keep getting small cuts on my foreskin during sex and sometimes it hurts a lot. It feels like phimosis but I really don't want to get circumcision or surgery. Are there any other treatments that could help with this?

Foreskin cuts and pain during intercourse may indicate phimosis; steroid creams and stretching exercises can help, but persistent symptoms may eventually need minor surgery.

I've been taking ashwagandha from an organic brand and I've noticed that I'm needing to pee really frequently, and this has been going on for the last year and a half. Can you suggest any solutions for this? I'm getting a bit worried about it.

This could be due to the diuretic effect of ashwagandha. I recommend stopping the ashwagandha supplement and consulting with a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
