I'm a bit worried because during intercourse, after just a couple of minutes, my penis becomes soft and slips out. I've heard about chewing on the penis to keep the mood going. Is this actually a safe or correct thing to do?

I'm having some trouble with my foreskin. It's kind of tight, and I'm really not keen on having surgery. Do you have any suggestions on how I can deal with this issue without going under the knife? Any help would be appreciated!

If your foreskin is tight, a condition called phimosis, non-surgical options like gentle stretching exercises, using a steroid cream prescribed by a doctor, or trying a non-invasive method like a foreskin dilation device can be effective. However, it's important to consult a urologist to ensure the right treatment for your situation.
