I'm having issues with my penis not staying firm during sex, and I'm also experiencing quick ejaculation. I've been masturbating for a few years, and I'm wondering what I can do to have stronger and longer-lasting erections. Could you give me some advice or any suggestions?

Erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation. To help improve the strength of your erections and prolong intercourse, you can try taking medications like sildenafil or tadalafil. These medications help increase blood flow to the penis, resulting in stronger and longer-lasting erections. Additionally, practicing techniques to delay ejaculation, such as the start-stop method or the squeeze technique, can also be helpful. It's important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, a balanced diet, and managing stress to improve your sexual health.

I've been diagnosed with grade 2 varicocele and have some pain in my testes, especially when walking. My doctor said surgery isn't needed since it's grade 2, but I'm still feeling uncomfortable. Should I get a second opinion or is it okay to manage it without surgery?

It's reasonable to seek a second opinion if you're experiencing discomfort despite your doctor's assessment that surgery isn't necessary for a grade 2 varicocele. While conservative management (like pain relievers and scrotal support) is often sufficient for mild cases, persistent pain warrants further evaluation. A second opinion can offer different perspectives and treatment options, including potentially exploring embolization, a minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure

I'm a bit worried about something and hoping you can help. Does masturbating too much cause any issues like varicocele? I'm also curious about other side effects of masturbation, especially if it can harm the testicles in any way.

Masturbating excessively does not directly cause varicocele, which is a condition where the veins inside the scrotum become enlarged. However, frequent masturbation can lead to temporary testicular pain or discomfort.

I've been noticing that whenever I drink water, I start feeling the need to urinate pretty quickly, within a few minutes, actually. It seems like the amount of urine depends on how much water I've had to drink. On average, I find myself going to the bathroom about 3-4 times after drinking. The color of my urine seems normal, nothing unusual. Also, I've been feeling some slight movements in my lower stomach. Could you help me understand what's going on?
