I'm having some trouble during sex because the time we spend in bed isn't as long as I'd likeit's only about 57 minutes. I'm really feeling down about it. What can I do to possibly improve this?

Its normal for sexual duration to vary, but if youre unhappy, techniques like pelvic floor exercises, using the "start-stop" method, or consulting a doctor for guidance on premature ejaculation can help. A healthy lifestyle and open communication with your partner also play a big role.

I've been having some trouble during intercourse because my penis gets smaller, and it doesn't get erect again afterward. It's happened a few times, and I'm starting to get really worried about it. Could there be something wrong that's making this happen? I'm not sure what to do or if theres a specific reason this might be happening. Any advice would be appreciated.

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.
