I'm kind of concerned because whenever I exercise, I've noticed my penis tends to shrink inwards. This started happening around two weeks ago after I started taking some medicine for constipation. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it a normal side effect?

I'm recently married and we're thinking about having a baby. But I'm a bit worried because my penis is only around 2 to 2.5 inches when not erect and grows to about 4 inches during intercourse. The foreskin feels really tight, which makes things uncomfortable, and I notice my erection doesnt last long. I tried using coconut oil, and while it helped a bit with penetration, Im still left feeling not fully satisfied. Also, the fluid seems to come out too quickly after ejaculation. Is all this normal? Are there lotions for tight foreskin or is it okay to use oil on the penis? I'm looking for some advice on these concerns.

I've noticed that I haven't had any wet dreams for about 10 or 11 months, and I haven't masturbated or had any other kind of release for the same amount of time. Is it unhealthy if I don't ejaculate at all for this long?
