My foreskin won't pull back over my penis should I be considering surgery or are there meds that can help with this? It's been really uncomfortable and I'm not sure what to do about it.

If your foreskin won't pull back over your penis and is causing discomfort, you might have phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract. Treatment options include topical steroid creams and, in some cases, surgery like circumcision or frenuloplasty

View allI've been experiencing something a bit concerning and could use some advice. Recently, I had sex with my fianc twice in one day, and I noticed I ejaculated much sooner than usual. It's the same case when I'm masturbating too. I'm wondering what might be causing this and what treatment options are available. Should I see a specific type of doctor for this issue?
Premature ejaculation can be treated with medications such as Dapoxetine (Priligy) or Sertraline (Zoloft). You can consult a Urologist for further evaluation and management of your condition.
