Pain in the groin area between right testicle and right leg (sort of at joint)

Male 27, 175cm 95kg, non smoker, no prescriptions.

I am very anxious when it comes to testicle and testicle cancers that I usually have an ultrasound and check with doctor every 6 to 12 months. Recently I went in because of the pain in my groin area. The best way to describe it, it feels like it is between the leg and right testicle, like where that joint area is. I noticed it gets worse from maybe sitting rather than walking (as I do office job). I got checked for hernia too and nothing was found. Feels like pain gets worse as day goes, and due to location it feels like it radiates onto my right testicle and onto my right leg thigh (front not back)

Has anyone experienced something like this? My doc suggested that it could be this muscle issue that is in that area and that I have to work on strengthening it. Would like to hear other people opinion. Thank you

Penile Injury - Advice Needed

Exactly a week ago I met a guy who was into CBT. I’m going to keep this as short and to the point as possible. I allowed him to put needles in my glans which didn’t make me lose my erection. Later he inserted two needles in the base of my penis at 10 o’clock and 2 o’clock positions. He did this very hastily and spare of the moment. I let him do it - my mistake. What followed was he moved the needle around and I felt a pop (did not hear it). And I lost my erection. Since then, I have only been able to get half hard and now I cannot even get hard at all or orgasm and the feeling in my penis has decreased. I feel a slight uncomfortable throb at the base. Needless to say, absolutely freaking out over this and have booked an urology appointment in the morning. Any advice on what to do or what this could be? Will my penis be okay?? Or is this the start of permanent damage?

Life gets in the way of dealing with hair loss and I dont want to accept baldness

So recently Ive been noticing hair loss after showers and overall thinning.

And the hardest parts about thinning hair isnt even the hair itself, its finding the time and energy to do something about it. Between work, family and friends and everything else going on in my life right now, I keep telling myself Ill do research and find treatments this weekend, and then another month goes by. Meanwhile, every haircut feels a little more noticeable, and I hate myself for not starting sooner.

Minoxidil dosnt really work for me, no trip to turkey and Ive seen reviews on rollers and stamps but that seem scarry for some reason.

Il take any recommendations because no matter what Im not ready and dont wanna go bald.

Thank you guys :)

Biggest erection; should I be worried?

37m.

Over the weekend I was with a woman. We performed a certain act - I was standing, she was kneeling; you can infer the rest.

Anyway, most of the time, I’m about 6.5”-7” fully erect and I’ve never had a problem achieving.

Anyway, when I was finishing I engorged! I mean I mist have grown at least another inch and thicker than ever before. It was actually slightly painful to be honest.

I’ve never been that big and I’m worried that something is wrong….

… and if nothing is wrong how do I achieve that level again lol!

No, but seriously, anyone else have this happen, should I be worried?

Question for people who used to masturbate every day (addicted)

I have a question for people who used to masturbate every day, or even multiple times a day.

Did that end up affecting how long you lasted? Lately I’ve noticed that I finish pretty quickly, and I’m wondering if years of masturbating frequently could have something to do with it, or if it’s unrelated.

If you went through something similar, what did you do that actually helped? Did cutting back on how often you masturbated make a difference? Did stopping porn help? Or did it just improve naturally over time?

I’m mainly looking to hear from people who have experienced this themselves. I’d appreciate hearing what worked for you and whether things eventually got better.

Im 18 now and genuinely scared for my future. (Will ask advice from doctors as well)

Erection problems with women

I'm 23 years old. In the last few days, I've been with a prostitute twice and I've had erection problems. I don't have this problem while masturbating, and with these women, when they gave me a handjob, it was fine, but only when I put inside them, it immediately fell off and nothing could be done. Even though I took Viagra just in case. A man can't even lose his virginity. I haven't watched porn for three days and I don't masturbate to fix my head. I've been masturbating every day for 10 years and I started watching increasingly strange porn because normal porn no longer aroused me. Will just cutting out porn and masturbation help me, or is there anything else I can do? How many months should it take to get better?

Terrasil for balanitis?

I’ve had what I can only guess is balanitis inflammation on the glans for about 3 months now (though I’ve been told multiple things by different drs). It started after prolonged exposure to hot water in the shower, and derms have given me practically every topical under the sun for it (tacrolimus, desitin, mupirocin, clovetasol, clotrimazole, opzelura etc). Ive only tried one at a time, but they all seem to ultimately make it redder and more inflamed.

Vaseline daily is about the only thing that seems to be safe that I’ve tried, but at the same time it’s still not getting rid of it. It will kind of go in flares, but not go away. I’ve always had sensitive skin anyways, but I was looking into terrasil online for balanitis. Anyone with a really stubborn case and sensitive skin tried this? Or any other ointment that worked for the

Give your sons the choice whether or not they want to get cut. I started masturbating at a young age, I also got circumcised at a young age, I say its AT LEAST 30% less enjoyable.

I pretty much had no say whether I was gonna get circumcised or not, but I was already masturbating before I got cut. Even after fully healing months later, its very noticeable that masturbation felt less good, at LEAST 30% less, which is huge! I mean i still enjoy it to this day, but it always bothered me that i never had a choice, since young kids just do what their parents tell them to with no research or understanding. I actually remember instinctively not wanting to get cut, must be my self preservation DNA kicking in, but of course what my father says goes. many years later i still find myself genuinely frustrated about being cut without my consent, pretty much forced really, cause how could a young uninformed kid defy his father who is just another ignorant sheep.

So I find it incredibly hard to believe people who say masturbation is more enjoyable with a cut dick, or that it feels the same. honestly my bullshit alarm goes off! these people either got cut as a baby, or never masturbated once before getting cut at a young age.

whether or not its the popular thing to do in your country, give your sons the choice, let them do their own research and let them decide for themselves maybe at age 15+ so they can form their own opinions and not just believe whatever the father says, don't force mutilate your sons without their consent. just teach your sons proper hygiene, not cut a chunk of their dick off.

26 year old performance issues

Hey guys,

My entire time I’ve been sexually active (6 years), I have always struggled in bed. It’s extremely rare that I am able to have an orgasm with a woman, and there’s usually about a 60% chance I’m able to perform at all.

Initially, I attributed this purely to performance anxiety, but I’ve also considered the fact that I find masturbation usually feels better than vaginal sex. For more info, I’m uncircumcised and don’t require lube when masturbating. I fear perhaps I grip my penis too tight when masturbating, thus desensitizing it for actual sex.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks everyone.

Yeast infection??

So the thing is I’ve been dealing with a yeast infection for about a month now. It used to be much worse, but the symptoms have decreased a lot. It’s only coming back in very small amounts now, but it just won't completely go away.

​I have been regularly cleaning the area with clean water to keep it fresh, and while that and over-the-counter treatments have helped lower the symptoms, they haven't fully eradicated it.

​Has anyone else dealt with a stubborn, low-level infection like this that just hangs on in small amounts? Did you need a stronger prescription, or did it turn out to be something else? I’m planning to see a doctor soon, but I'd love to hear your experiences.

Curve developed on my penis

This pronounced curve on my penis almost came out of nowhere about 3-4 months ago. I always had a slight (very slight) upward curve but nothing like this. I remember having a little pain once or twice prior to sex but just thought I was really turned on or something. What’s going on here?? Apparently I can only post one pic..

Hello i’m a 22M i’ve been suffering with random health issues for over 5 years now. growing up I was pretty healthy. I just dealt a lot with some mental health, lungs and breathing, and I always dealt with my legs were always painful and heavy, but these last five years my entire internal health has gone against me from head to toe last five years I’ve been suffering with weed vaping porn prone masterbation,
i’ve been stuck sabotaging my own sex life all these years and I’ve watched so many women go by being broken. I’m struggling with my arousal ED issues. It’s not as big straight and rigid no morning wood no daytime errections I need constant stimulation and when I stand up, my penis, kinda goes semi hard and hangs down . I’ve also been dealing a lot with chronic low back pain and my low spine si joint pain, and disfunction all around my waistline and issues in like my pelvis, hips glutes thighs. I have pain and troubles walking standing bending I’ve been struggling with chronic stomach issues, thinner, stools poop after I eat anything I always feel bloated and full basically issues in my entire mid lower body. troubles with starting to pee and per for a long time. I get easy, bruising, numbness, and tingling in my legs feet, arms, hands, dizziness, black vision, my nervous system, and immune system completely feel off because I get sick a lot and I always feel so sick and painful in my body. I get a lot of infections.

My main issues are my chronic fatigue. chronic pain from my mid low back stomach area all the way to my knees with issues and it’s also killing me as years of prone masturbation and what it did to my errections. all these years, it felt like I was cursed because I lost everything in my health. i’ve seen doctors and specialist for five years and they all notice these changes but none of them are really helping me here fixing me it’s crazy. My entire body has gone against me, stomach health, mental health, oral health chronic sick back pain that goes into my entire pelvis, region, peeing, and sexual issuestroubles gaining weight and muscle. I always feel so rundown.
