I'm 58 and have been married for over 30 years. I've got a problem where my foreskin is really tight, and my penis doesn't come out from it. It hurts a lot if I try to force it open. I've been having sex with the foreskin like this, but it's affecting my sex life. Even though I've got two healthy kids, I'm wondering if I should think about circumcision at my age. I've also been taking insulin for Type II diabetes for more than 20 years. Could you give me some advice?

I've been wondering about the effects of daily masturbation over many years. I'm 28 now, could this habit be lowering my testosterone levels? Also, are there other factors or things I should be aware of that might be causing low testosterone?

Daily masturbation does not significantly impact testosterone levels in a healthy 28-year-old. However, chronic stress, poor diet, lack of sleep, obesity, and certain medical conditions (e.g., hypogonadism) can contribute to low testosterone levels. It's important to maintain a healthy lifestyle for optimal hormone balance.
