I've been masturbating about two or three times a week, and I'm worried if this could lead to impotency. I feel like my penis isn't as big as it was when I was 18, especially when it's flaccid. I can see nerves on it and also on the back of my hands. Does this mean Im getting weaker or is it normal? Am I doing it too often? Could this increase my risk of diabetes, because my mom has it?

my foreskin retracts fine when soft but gets stuck when erect is surgery the only way to fix this or are there other treatments that could help
While surgery (circumcision) is a common treatment for phimosis (tight foreskin), it's not always the only option. Non-surgical treatments, such as stretching exercises, steroid creams, and addressing underlying issues like infections or skin conditions, can also be effective

I'm just kind of curious, how often is it considered safe to masturbate in a week? Like, I dont want to overdo it or harm myself in any way. Is there such thing as a limit I should be aware of? Hope you can help clarify this for me.
There is no strict "limit" for masturbation; it varies from person to person. Generally, it is safe if it doesn't interfere with your daily life, relationships, or responsibilities. Moderation is key, and if you feel any physical discomfort or emotional distress, its worth discussing with a doctor.
