I'm a 22-year-old guy and I'm having a bit of a situation. My foreskin doesn't seem to retract on its own when I'm erect, and I can't really pull it back manually either because it's too tight. I can pull it back fine when I'm not erect though. Any idea what's going on or what I should do?

It sounds like you have phimosis, which is a common condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract fully during an erection. Regular gentle stretching exercises with a steroid cream prescribed by a doctor can help, but if it persists, consult a urologist to discuss further options like a minor surgical procedure (circumcision or preputioplasty).

View allI've been having some trouble during sex where I seem to finish too quickly, and my ejaculation isnt as thick as I would expect, plus it doesnt have much force behind it. I have a past of frequently masturbating. Is there any kind of medication that can help with making sperm thicker or help with lasting longer? I'm really concerned and would appreciate any advice.

Instead of relying on capsules, focusing on relaxation, communication with your partner, and possibly seeing a specialist for personalized advice can be more effective for improving stamina.

Does masturbation more than twice a week have any negative effects on my health? And if I do it on consecutive days, is that harmful in any way? Just trying to understand if it's affecting my fitness journey or overall health in any way.
Yes you can take no problem.
