I'm 28 and my penis head doesn't fully come out - will this cause issues during sex? Are there any non-surgical treatments that could help with this?

A tight foreskin (phimosis) can potentially cause issues during sex, but not always. Non-surgical treatments like steroid creams and stretching exercises can help loosen the foreskin

I'm thinking about using lignocaine jelly because I've heard it can help reduce the sensitivity of the glans penis, but I'm wondering how this might affect the process of getting an erection. I'm planning to apply it, but I'm a bit confused about how it all works together. Could you explain how lignocaine might impact erection and whether it's safe to use for this purpose?

Lignocaine jelly works by numbing the area it is applied to, reducing sensitivity. However, an erection is primarily caused by physical and psychological stimulation, leading to increased blood flow to the penis, not just sensitivity. So, even if the glans penis is less sensitive, the erection can still occur due to these other factors.

Hey, I'm really trying to shake off this habit of excessive masturbation. I'm worried it might be messing with my body and nerves because I feel super nervous and can't face anyone. Could this be from too much masturbation? I'm 23 years old. Is it too late for me to quit and get back to normal? How do I overcome this?

Reducing or eliminating any habit takes time, patience, and self-compassion. Youre not alone in your struggle, and its important to approach the process with kindness to yourself. Start by focusing on your overall mental and physical health, and gradually, youll likely notice positive changes in your energy levels, mood, and ability to face social situations confidently.
