View allI'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.

I'm a bit worried about a habit I have. I use a condom every night when I masturbate because it gives me a lot of pleasure. But I'm concerned if this might cause problems for me in the future. Also, I've been wondering if there's a way to naturally enlarge penis size. Could you help me out with some advice on these issues?
Using a condom during masturbation is a safe practice and should not cause any problems in the future. If you are looking to enlarge your penis size, there are no medications or methods that have been scientifically proven to be effective. It is important to remember that penis size is determined by genetics and cannot be significantly altered. If you have concerns about your penis size, it may be helpful to speak with a healthcare provider for further guidance.

I'm experiencing something unusual when I go to the bathroommy urine's getting split into two streams. It's flowing clear and everything, but it's kind of odd. A couple of days ago, I had this pain and sensation while peeing, and the doctor said it was an infection, so I took some medicine and that part seems better now. What I'm wondering is, should I be worried about this split thing, and what should I do about it?
The split urine stream, also known as urinary bifurcation, can be caused by various factors, including urethral stricture, bladder neck contracture, or prostate enlargement; given your recent urinary tract infection (UTI) and resolved symptoms, the split stream might be a temporary aftermath, but it's essential to consult your doctor to rule out any underlying conditions and determine the best course of action.
