I'm worried about whether I might have Frenulum breve. I can't fully retract my foreskin when my penis is erect, but I can do it when it's semi-erect or flaccid. Is that enough reason to think I have this condition?

-Frenulum breve is when the frenulum (the band under the penis head) is too short, limiting foreskin retraction, especially during an erection. If you can retract it only on a flaccid or semi-erect penis, it could be a sign, but it's best to consult a doc

View allI'm a 30-year-old man and I've noticed some changes in my sex life. I used to be able to have sex three times, but now I can only go once. Is this something I should be worried about, and are there ways to get back to how it used to be?

I'm a bit worried because my doctor just prescribed me Urimax 0.4 tablets, but I know it's typically meant for men. Can women safely take it too? Are there any side effects I should be aware of?
Urimax 0.4 mg is commonly prescribed for men to manage symptoms of an enlarged prostate, but it can also be prescribed for women in certain cases, such as for treating urinary symptoms related to bladder issues. However, it is important to follow your doctor's instructions. Potential side effects may include dizziness, headaches, or gastrointestinal disturbances, so it's essential to monitor for any changes. Always consult your doctor if you experience any discomfort.

i have phimosis and cant retract my foreskin even when masturbating is it possible to have sex without retracting or do i need surgery i can move the skin a little but cant wear a condom properly
It's possible to have sex with phimosis, even without full retraction, but it may be uncomfortable or painful. Using a condom and ample lubricant can help. However, if the foreskin is severely tight, sexual activity could cause tearing or pain. Surgery (circumcision) might be recommended in more severe cases, but it's not always necessary
