I'm 26 and I've been masturbating regularly since I was 16. Lately, I've noticed that my penis seems smaller and it won't get erect unless I'm watching porn or engaging in phone sex. I'm really worried about this and I'm not sure what to do. Could this be a real problem? Any advice would be appreciated.

It's common to develop certain habits like relying on porn or phone sex for arousal, which can affect natural stimulation. This doesn't mean permanent damage. Try reducing reliance on porn gradually, focus on healthy lifestyle changes, and consult a doctor or therapist for personalized guidance to address concerns about erectile health and confidence.

View allI'm a bit concerned because my penis is 13.5 cm, and I'm wondering if that's considered small. Sometimes I feel like I need to masturbate to avoid the constant urge for an erection. Could this be a problem?
A penis size of 13.5 cm is within the normal range, and there's no cause for concern. Masturbation can be a natural outlet for sexual urges, but if you feel discomfort or pressure to engage in it, it's important to address any underlying concerns and maintain a balanced approach to your sexual health. If you ever feel unsure or anxious about your body, it might help to talk to a healthcare provider.

I'm experiencing some pain in the area below my waist, especially when I wear a tight belt. The pain isn't constantit's more of a dull ache that comes and goes and seems to affect the whole front area. I'm a bit worried and curious about what might be causing this. Could this be something serious, or is it just from the belt being too tight?
