My brother has phimosis and can't pull his foreskin back. He only noticed this recently but doesn't have issues with erections or peeing. However, he's been experiencing premature ejaculation during masturbation. Is this because of phimosis? What are the treatment options, and can surgery be done at his age? His wedding is in August would recovery be possible by then? Need advice as soon as possible.

I'm a bit confused about the timing of precum and sperm during ejaculation. Does precum always come out before sperm, or can sperm be released before precum too? Also, is it possible for precum to be released after sperm? I'm trying to understand how it works.

Precum, also known as pre-ejaculate, is a clear, colorless fluid that is released from the male urethra during sexual arousal. It is produced by the Cowper's glands and serves to lubricate the urethra and neutralize any acidity from previous urine. Precum can be released before ejaculation, during sexual activity, or even without sexual stimulation. Sperm, on the other hand, is the reproductive fluid that contains sperm cells and is released during ejaculation. Sperm is produced in the testes and stored in the epididymis until ejaculation occurs. In the normal sequence of events during sexual activity, precum is usually the first fluid to be released, followed by the release of sperm during ejaculation. However, it is possible for sperm to be released first, especially if there is residual sperm in the urethra from a previous ejaculation, and precum to be released afterwards. It is important to note that precum itself can contain sperm, although the concentration is generally lower compared to ejaculated sperm. Therefore, it is still possible to conceive from precum if it contains sperm. If you have concerns about fertility or sexual health, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice and guidance.

I've noticed that after having intercourse with my partner, one side of my penis is swollen. There's no pain, but it does itch a bit. Is this normal after sex? Should I be doing something about it?

A swollen penis after intercourse, accompanied by itching but no pain, can be caused by an allergic reaction to latex condoms, lubricants, or spermicides, or by a skin condition like contact dermatitis; to alleviate symptoms, apply cool compresses, avoid scratching, and use antihistamine creams or hydrocortisone cream; however, if the swelling persists or worsens, or if you experience difficulty urinating, increased redness, or pain, consult a healthcare provider or a urologist for proper evaluation and guidance.

I recently had a penis infection and now my foreskin isn't smooth anymore. It seems to get stuck behind the head, and both the head and foreskin are really dry. What should I do about this?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.
