Laser circumcision is actually the permanent solution for phimosis. So, if your doctor recommends you undergoing laser circumcision or stapler circumcision, be assured that it is the safest procedure and inflicts minimal pain

I'm really curious about how mast**u**rbation affects testosterone levels. Like, is there a frequency that's considered okay or safe? I'm just a bit worried because I've read that doing it too much can mess with testosterone, and I want to make sure I'm not unintentionally causing any issues. Can you share any insights on how often it's alright without it impacting testosterone levels?

Masturbation does not significantly affect testosterone levels in the long term. Its generally safe and normal to masturbate as often as you feel comfortable, as long as it doesnt interfere with your daily life, relationships, or responsibilities.

I'm really worried about some nerve damage in my penis that's happened because of too much masturbation in the past. Is there a way to heal it naturally through exercises and diet without using medicine? What steps should I take, and what should I focus on for recovery?

While it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan, you can try incorporating foods rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals into your diet to support nerve health. Foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins can be beneficial. Additionally, regular exercise, such as pelvic floor exercises (Kegels), yoga, and cardiovascular workouts, can help improve blood flow and nerve function in the pelvic area. It is also important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including getting enough sleep, managing stress, and avoiding alcohol and tobacco.
