I have retractile testicles where they mostly stay in the scrotum, but my right one moves up into the groin during ejaculation and stays there for a bit. If I decide to get surgery to keep it fixed in place, what's the success rate like? I'm 29, does age affect the outcome?

I am 23 years old. can phimosis be correctedtreated without a surgery thank you. if yesno then please elaborate.
Yes, phimosis can often be treated without surgery, especially in mild to moderate cases. Non-surgical options include steroid creams and gentle stretching techniques. In some cases, more aggressive dilations using a balloon dilator might be needed. If these methods fail or the phimosis is severe, surgery (circumcision) may be recommended.

I'm having some discomfort during intercourse because my frenulum feels really tight and it hurts when my foreskin stretches. Is there any way to loosen the frenulum? Would love some advice on this.
You may be experiencing frenulum breve, which is a condition where the frenulum (the band of tissue connecting the foreskin to the underside of the penis) is tight and causes pain during erection. One option to help loosen the frenulum is by using a topical steroid cream, such as Betamethasone cream. You can apply a small amount of Betamethasone cream to the tight frenulum twice a day for several weeks to help loosen it. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any treatment.
