I've been looking for a local dermatologist and found some profiles that mention they're also sexologists. I'm a bit unsure though, can I talk to them about male sexual issues? I'm not too comfortable going anywhere in person right now. What sort of sexual problems can a dermatologist handle if they're saying they are a sexologist too? Are they able to treat things like PE and ED?

View allMy foreskin won't pull back whether I'm hard or soft should I see a dermatologist or a urologist for this? Also, if surgery is needed, how long does recovery usually take?
You should see a urologist for a non-retractable foreskin (phimosis). If surgery like circumcision is needed, recovery usually takes 1–2 weeks with minimal downtime.

I'm getting really worried because lately my penis isn't getting hard, even when I'm watching porn. I can still ejaculate, but it's just not hard at all. Any idea why this might be happening? I'm really scared.
This could be due to stress, fatigue, hormonal changes, or even excessive porn consumption leading to desensitization. Psychological factors like anxiety or physical issues like poor blood flow may also contribute. It's important to stay calm and consult a doctor for a proper evaluation and guidance.
