I'm 25 and I've never masturbated before. I'm wondering if this is normal and if it might lead to any sexual or prostate issues in the future. Also, what would be a healthy frequency for masturbation?

It's completely okay if you haven't masturbated; there's no right or wrong when it comes to personal habits. Not masturbating will not cause sexual or prostate issues in the future. The ideal frequency varies for each person, but the key is whether it feels comfortable and healthy for you. If you ever have concerns about sexual health, it's a good idea to consult a healthcare professional.

my penis hasn't grown since childhood and stays around 3 inches when erect is this normal or could there be an underlying issue are there any surgical options to address this

A penis length of around 3 inches when erect may suggest a condition called micropenis, which can have hormonal or developmental causes. It's important to consult an endocrinologist or urologist for proper evaluation. Surgical options like penile lengthening procedures exist but are considered only after medical assessment and counseling.

Im a 23-year-old guy dealing with something unusual lately. My left testicle feels like it's vibrating, and occasionally the right one does too. It started happening the morning after I masturbated the night before. Plus, my left testicle seems a bit softer than the right one. My penis shakes sometimes as well. Its been like this for the past four days. Sometimes everything feels normal, and Im wondering if I should be worried or if this will sort itself out. Any ideas on what might be going on?

Sounds like you may be experiencing some testicular discomfort and changes in sensation. These symptoms could be due to various reasons such as muscle spasms, nerve irritation, or even underlying medical conditions. I recommend you to take Ibuprofen 400mg every 6 hours for pain relief and inflammation. Additionally, you can apply a cold pack to the affected area to help reduce any swelling or discomfort. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I have tight foreskin and I'm really uncomfortable with the idea of surgery are there any other treatments or solutions I can try

Preputioplasty is effective In children with congenital tightening of the foreskin. Several incisions are made into the tip of the foreskin to expose the head of the penis. The foreskin then needs to be retracted regularly until it has healed completely.
