Hi there i understand your concern regarding your genital health...The main cause of balanitis is poor hygiene. Poor hygiene causes harmful bacteria to overpopulate the area, which can lead to infection...it can be fungal as well... Clinical examination is necessary to diagnose it and to rule out other possible conditions....you may require antibiotic or antifungal creams..Before applying any treatment option, it is important to avoid using irritants such as perfumed soap, lotion, or powder. This prevents further irritation of the foreskin...Consult nearest dermatologist they will do the needful.

I'm experiencing something odd and would love some guidance. Whenever I masturbate, everything works just fineI get a perfect erection and can control when I ejaculate. But it's a different story when I'm with my partner. I struggle to get a strong enough erection, and I find myself ejaculating much faster than I'd like. It's kind of frustrating, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Would really appreciate any advice or insights!
