Question

I've been dealing with phimosis and heard steroid creams might help which ones actually work and how do you use them properly? Is surgery the only option if the creams don't help, or are there other treatments? How long does it usually take to see improvement with the creams?

Question

I've had a tilted penis since I was a kid, bending downwards and to the left kind of like a banana. Everything else like length and width, especially during an erection, seems normal and there's no pain. I read online about Peyronie's disease, but I don't think that's what I have since it's been this way since childhood and it's painless. The bend makes it difficult to penetrate during sex. Are there any proven treatments, invasive or non-invasive, that could help with this? Is it possible for me to have a regular straight penis?

Question

I masturbate almost every day and I'm wondering if that's okay or if it could be a problem. Im also curious about ways to last longer when ejaculating. If I decide to cut down on how often I masturbate, is it manageable? Is once a day considered normal?
