I'm experiencing cracks on my foreskin after having sex, and sometimes they last for a few days before coming back after intercourse. I've noticed a whitish-grey discharge building up on my foreskin and the head of my penis. It goes away after washing, but then it returns the next day. The skin around the head seems like it might have an infection. I've tried using coconut oil and curd since I read online that it might be a fungal or yeast infection. Also, my wife had a UTI with white discharge recently. Could you help me understand what might be causing this and suggest a possible treatment?

The symptoms suggest a possible yeast infection (candidiasis) or balanitis, often linked to infections like UTI in partners. Avoid home remedies like coconut oil, as they may worsen irritation. Wash gently with warm water, avoid soaps, and consider an antifungal cream after consulting a Dr. Both you and your wife may benefit from a medical check-up to address potential infection and prevent recurrence.

View allI'm noticing that my sexual libido is dropping, and I think it's related to how often I masturbate. Could you suggest foods that might help boost my libido? Also, I've been feeling low on energy during sex. Any advice on what I could do to get that energy level up?
A decrease in libido and energy during sex can sometimes be linked to diet and lifestyle. To support sexual health, consider incorporating foods rich in zinc (like pumpkin seeds, spinach, and seafood), healthy fats (such as avocados and nuts), and antioxidants (like berries and dark chocolate). Also, ensure you're getting enough rest, managing stress, and staying hydrated.

I'm using Vigora 50 whenever I have sex, and I'm wondering if that could be dangerous. Could you let me know if there are any risks involved? If there are, I'd really appreciate some advice on what to do.
Vigora-50 contains Sildenafil, which is used to treat erectile dysfunction. It is generally safe to use as directed, but it can have potential side effects such as headache, flushing, indigestion, and changes in vision. However, if you have certain medical conditions like heart problems, it can be dangerous to use without medical supervision. If you experience any chest pain, dizziness, or vision changes while using Vigora-50, you should stop using it and seek medical attention.

I'm masturbating about 46 times a week. Is this okay for my health, or could it cause issues later on, like after I get married? I'm single right now and don't have any health problems, plus I exercise regularly. Should I be worried?
