My foreskin won't pull back over the head of my penis and I think it might be phimosis. Are there other treatment options besides circumcision? Can I try using a steroid cream first before considering surgery?

I'm 27 and dealing with phimosis but really scared of surgery. Are there any other ways to treat it without going under the knife? What options do I have?

If you're experiencing phimosis and want to avoid surgery, there are several non-surgical options you can explore. These include topical steroid creams, stretching exercises, good hygiene practices, and in some cases, balloon dilation.

I'm really worried because I feel like my part isn't as strong as it used to be. It seems to be getting smaller and losing strength each day. My partner used to say she was satisfied, but now she doesn't feel the same way and she's been direct about it. It's making me feel really sad and I can't help but wonder if this is because of regular masturbation. Is there something I can do about this? Can I get back to how things were before?
