My foreskin doesn't fully cover the head of my penis about 11.5cm is always exposed whether it's erect or not. It's been like this for years without any issues, but I recently read about paraphimosis and now I'm worried if I have it. Also, what exactly is circumcision surgery and would I need it

Paraphimosis is a urologic emergency where the foreskin, once retracted, cannot be returned to its normal position, leading to a tight band around the glans of the penis. It's a medical condition primarily seen in uncircumcised or partially circumcised males

I'm a bit concerned because I had intercourse with my wife around 5 pm, and when we tried again at 8 pm, I noticed that I didn't ejaculate. I'm not sure what's going on, and it's got me worried. Could there be a reason or an issue I should be aware of?

It is not uncommon for some men to experience delayed ejaculation, where there is a delay or difficulty in ejaculating. This can be caused by various factors such as stress, anxiety, certain medications, or underlying health conditions. It is important to address any underlying issues that may be contributing to this problem. If this issue persists, you may consider speaking with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm dealing with a problem related to my penis. When it gets erect, the foreskin tends to fit tightly just below the top. I've been considering circumcision to remove some of the foreskin. I'm not sure who I should consult in Ahmedabad or which clinic to visit for this. Could you give me some guidance or advice?

You can visit General SURGEON for this issue.

I've been masturbating twice a day for the last 45 years, and I've never actually had sex with someone before. Last night, I tried to get intimate with my girlfriend, and I found out that my penis wasn't getting hard enough for sex. It was really disappointing, and now I'm worried. Any suggestions on what I should do?

It's natural to feel worried, but occasional difficulty with erections can happen due to stress, anxiety, or overthinking. Masturbation habits aren't usually the cause. Try to relax, focus on the moment, and reduce stress. If the issue persists, consulting a doctor can help rule out physical or psychological factors.
