I've been feeling worried about my penis size. It's around 6 inches long but not very thick, and I've heard that thickness can be really important for sexual intercourse. I'm wondering if there's a doctor here who can help me with this. Are there any medicines or other methods that can help increase my penis thickness? It's something I'd really like to improve.

It's completely normal to have concerns about body image, but it's important to understand that size and thickness are often less significant than factors like intimacy, trust, and communication in relationships. There are no proven medications or treatments for increasing penis thickness. If you're still concerned, I recommend speaking to a urologist for personalized advice and support.

I'm a bit concerned because this is my first time trying to have penetrative sex with my girlfriend, and I couldn't maintain an erection after getting one during foreplay. Could this be related to my masturbation habit? I've been doing it almost daily for about 10 years, so I'm wondering if that might affect things. What do you think?

It's common to experience difficulty maintaining an erection during first-time penetrative sex due to nerves or anxiety. Masturbation, especially if done frequently, can sometimes affect sensitivity or performance, but it's usually not the main cause. If this continues, consider talking to a healthcare professional to address any underlying concerns and reduce anxiety.
