I'm feeling really down about the size of my penis. It's 5 inches when erect, which I think is around 12 cm. I'm worried if this is normal or if there's something wrong. Can you tell me if my size is within the normal range?

Your penis size of 5 inches (12 cm) when erect is within the normal range. The average erect penis size globally is around 5-5.5 inches, and size does not usually affect sexual satisfaction or fertility. Try to focus on overall health and confidence rather than size.

Question

I've been having this really uncomfortable pain on the left side of my scrotum, and it feels like it's hanging more than usual. It's so bad that it's making it hard to sit or walk properly. I saw two doctors already, and they gave me medicine, but nothing's helping. Can you tell me what might be going on or suggest what I should do next?

Question

I've been having some concerns and I'm hoping you can help. A couple of years ago, I was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection and since then, I've noticed a 0.5 inch lump on my right testicle, which is also a bit larger than my left one. There's nothing like that on my left testicle. Could this be epididymitis, or is it something else I should be worried about?

Question

I recently had a zsr circumcision on February 22nd and now all the staples along with the silicon ring have fallen off. There's just a tiny bit still attached to the skin and when I try to remove it, it hurts a little, which is really freaking me out. I'm worried that pulling it might cause some other issues. Could you tell me if it's safe to pull it off myself? Also, I'm curious if I can now engage in sexual activities like intercourse or masturbation.
