I've noticed these tiny black dots in my semen over the past couple of weeks, and I'm a bit concerned. I haven't experienced any pain or allergies, and this has never happened before. I'm married, so I'm just trying to figure out if this is something to worry about. Any ideas on what might be causing this?

I'm really into sex and usually have a great time, but I've noticed that after the first round, it takes me more than 5 hours to get an erection again. It's starting to worry me. Any advice on what might be going on or how I can improve this?

It's normal for recovery time after sex (the refractory period) to vary between individuals, and it may lengthen with age or fatigue. Staying hydrated, reducing stress, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can help. If the issue persists, consult a doctor to rule out hormonal or circulation-related concerns.
