I've been applying olive oil to my penis for about a week now, and I'm wondering if it's safe to use it on the glans too. Can using olive oil daily on my sensitive glans help with the sensitivity issue I'm experiencing?

Using olive oil on the glans is generally safe, but it wont specifically reduce sensitivity. Sensitivity could be due to various causes, like inflammation, irritation, or medical conditions. Its best to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and tailored advice.

I've been really worried because I've been doing masturbation a lot, maybe more than I should, and I feel like it's affected my stamina and energy levels. I think it's also impacted my size or maybe that's just in my head. Is there something I can do to get my stamina and energy back? Any advice would really help.

It's important to understand that occasional masturbation does not cause long-term harm, but excessive behavior might lead to temporary fatigue or decreased energy. To regain stamina, focus on a balanced diet, regular exercise, adequate sleep, and stress management. If you feel persistent issues, consider consulting a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
