I'm a 30-year-old guy who's not married yet, and I've been struggling with a small penis and not being able to last long. It's been really affecting my confidence and I'm worried about my future relationships. Is there any way I can get help with this?

The typical erect penis is usually 5 to 6 inches long with a circumference of 4 to 5 inches. There's more variation in the size of flaccid penises.

Some guys are genuinely smaller than that. In rare cases, genetics and hormone problems cause a condition called micropenis -- an erect penis of under 3 inches. Sometimes Peyronie's disease can reduce a guy's size.

Losing weight will reveal more of that hidden shaft that's buried beneath belly fat. It doesn't actually increase your size, but it will look that way...

My left testicle has been bigger than the right one for about 10-15 years, but lately I've been feeling some pain there. Should I be worried? Is surgery or any other treatment needed for this?

Yes, you should seek medical attention for the new pain, especially given the long-standing size difference. A long-standing difference in testicle size is generally not a concern, but the new pain could indicate a variety of issues, some requiring immediate medical attention

My foreskin won't pull back whether I'm hard or soft should I see a dermatologist or a urologist for this? Also, if surgery is needed, how long does recovery usually take?

You should see a urologist for a non-retractable foreskin (phimosis). If surgery like circumcision is needed, recovery usually takes 1‚Äì2 weeks with minimal downtime.
