I've been noticing something worrying with my intimate health lately. My penis starts off firm, but after a while, it becomes a bit softer, even if I haven't ejaculated yet. I'm feeling a bit embarrassed about this situation. Is there anything I can do to get it back to how it used to be? I dont have any health problems, and I exercise regularly. Any advice would be appreciated!

It's understandable that you're feeling concerned, but this can sometimes happen due to stress, fatigue, or even mental factors like performance anxiety, even if youre physically healthy. Its important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, reduce stress, and communicate openly with your partner. If it continues, consulting with a healthcare professional may help address any underlying causes.

Tomorrow is my circumcision surgery and I smoke about 34 cigarettes a day. I had my last smoke at 8:30 pm today and the surgery is at 9:30 am tomorrow. Is stopping smoking 13 hours before the procedure okay or should I be worried about any risks?

I've had a tilted penis since I was a kid, bending downwards and to the left kind of like a banana. Everything else like length and width, especially during an erection, seems normal and there's no pain. I read online about Peyronie's disease, but I don't think that's what I have since it's been this way since childhood and it's painless. The bend makes it difficult to penetrate during sex. Are there any proven treatments, invasive or non-invasive, that could help with this? Is it possible for me to have a regular straight penis?

Thats usually normal amd many individuals will be having the same,for your concern vist urologist for appropriate approach
