I've been having an issue where sperm seems to leak automatically when I'm urinating or even when I'm sleeping, and it's happening without any erection. This has got me feeling really down, and I'm not sure what to do. My penis also feels quite loose and this is adding to my worry. For context, I used to masturbate regularly since I was 16 but stopped around 3 months ago, and I'm 28 years old now. Can you help me figure this out?

It sounds like you're experiencing concerns related to spontaneous semen leakage and changes in your sexual health. This could be linked to factors like sexual health, hormonal balance, or stress, especially after prolonged masturbation. It's important to consult a healthcare provider to evaluate your symptoms and discuss appropriate steps, such as lifestyle changes or treatments, to help you manage this issue effectively.
