View allI'm thinking about trying out this condom brand called Durex Extra Time. It has benzocaine, I think about 5%, and I've never used it before. I heard it might numb the tip of the penis a bit to help delay ejaculation. Are these kinds of condoms safe to use regularly? Could using them often have any negative effects on my penis or overall health?
Durex Extra Time condoms, which contain benzocaine (a mild local anesthetic), are generally considered safe for use. They work by numbing the tip of the penis to help delay ejaculation. However, using them frequently may lead to temporary numbness or irritation for some individuals. If you experience any discomfort or allergic reactions, it's best to discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider.

I've been dealing with prostate swelling for the past 7 years and I'm only 33. Been taking Flotral 10 mg daily but really want to find a way to manage this without surgery. Are there other treatment options or lifestyle changes that could help reduce the swelling long-term?
While you're already taking Flotral (alfuzosin), there are other options and lifestyle changes to consider for long-term prostate swelling management without surgery. Focusing on diet, exercise, and specific habits can significantly reduce symptoms and potentially the need for more invasive procedures.
