View allI'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.

I've been diagnosed with chronic non-bacterial prostatitis and urinary bladder wall thickening of 7mm. Are there any medications that can help treat these conditions or is surgery an option for prostatitis? Would surgery provide a permanent solution for these issues?
For chronic non-bacterial prostatitis, medication is the primary treatment option, although surgery might be considered in specific cases. Bladder wall thickening, however, is a different issue and requires separate evaluation and treatment. There is no guarantee of a permanent cure, but with appropriate management, symptoms can be effectively controlled.
