I'm having trouble when trying to get intimate with my wife because my penis seems to go loose quickly, and I'm not sure what's happening. I've been off some medications for pseudo-seizures like Zapiz, Topicon, and Pregabid for about six months now. Any thoughts on what the issue might be and if there are any medications I should consider?

It sounds like you may be experiencing erectile dysfunction. I recommend trying a medication called Viagra (Sildenafil) at a dose of 50mg taken 1 hour before sexual activity. This can help improve blood flow to the penis and assist with achieving and maintaining an erection. However, it is important to consult with a doctor before starting any new medication to ensure it is safe for you based on your medical history.

I've been dealing with UTI issues again. I had one back in November 2016 and took norflox then, and it cleared up. This time, the problem started on April 3rd, and I took norflox for 5 days along with citralka syrup. It got better, but then it came back after just 2 days. Now it's continuing every day. What should I do? Is there something different I should try or be concerned about?

Recurring UTI symptoms despite antibiotic treatment, including norflox, suggest a possible underlying issue, such as antibiotic resistance, incomplete treatment, or an underlying anatomical or functional abnormality; consider consulting a urologist

I'm 24 and my foreskin still covers the tip of my penis it doesn't retract back. Will this cause problems in my sex life? Is circumcision really necessary for having sex? I'd prefer not to get surgery. Should I be worried about this or is it normal?

Having a foreskin that doesn't fully retract (phimosis) isn't necessarily a problem and doesn't automatically mean you'll have difficulties with sex or need circumcision. It's a common condition, especially in young boys, and can even persist into adulthood for some.
