I'm just wondering, does masturbation lead to feeling fatigued or weak? Is it actually harmful in any way, and are there any side effects I should be aware of? I'm a bit concerned and would love some clarity.

Masturbation is a natural and normal activity that typically doesn't cause fatigue or weakness unless done excessively. In moderation, its not harmful and doesnt have significant side effects. However, if it becomes compulsive or interferes with daily life, it may be a sign of underlying issues that need attention.

I'm having some trouble with my foreskin. I can pull it back when I'm semi-erect, but not when I'm fully erect. Is this something I should be worried about?

Phimosis is a condition where the foreskin can't be pulled back from the head of the penis.A steroid cream is usually tried first. Surgery is then recommended if the cream doesn't work.

I've been having some issues that are making me worried. I'm a 21-year-old male, and I've noticed that if I drink a lot of water, within just 15 to 30 minutes I get an urgent need to pee and can't seem to hold it for long. I end up going to the bathroom 2 to 3 times within an hour. Also, if I eat more than usual, I feel like I need to use the latrine right away. I do have a 7mm kidney stone, and my doctor advised me to drink plenty of water. But now, with these symptoms, I'm starting to wonder if they could be related to diabetes. Could that be a possibility? It's really starting to bother me, and I'd love to hear your thoughts.

I'm a 17-year-old guy and I'm really worried about a few things. I've got a pretty small penis, like about 3 inches, and I've been masturbating every day for the past three years. I just can't seem to stop. I'm also dealing with premature ejaculation, which happens really fast, and there are wrinkles on my penis. Is there any way to increase penis size or help with these issues?

If you have a problem with obtaining and maintaining erections, you can seek help from a sexual health expert, who can prescribe you medication to deal with Erectile Dysfunction, and also Premature Ejaculation. If you are referring to increasing the size of the erect penis, there is no medication to facilitate that. Cosmetic surgeries are possible, but often expensive and rare. You can visit a specialist for further information on the matter.
