It does not have any harmful side effects on health. In fact, it can have some benefits such as reducing stress, improving sleep, and promoting relaxation. There is no evidence to suggest that masturbation has any negative impact on fertility or future reproductive health.

My foreskin won't pull down and part of it seems stuck to the head of my penis. When I get an erection, it gets really tight and I can't retract it at all. During sex, it does come down but since it's attached, I end up ejaculating too fast. I read online that this might be phimosis and they suggested using a steroid cream like Tenovat along with daily stretching exercises, saying it could fix it in about 4 weeks. Does that actually work or is surgery the only way to fix this?

Surgery opinion is advised to the patient.
