Can testosterone injection treat erectile dysfunction?

Hello doctor,

I am 35-year-old male weight 299 pounds and height 6.1 feet . My blood sugar is 160, HbA1c is 7.2. Testosterone is 153, free testosterone is 3.2. I am undergoing treatment for depression for which my medications are Qutipin 50 mg at night and Arip Mt 10 mg bd. I have consulted a sexologist for my sexual problems after my marriage six months ago. I am facing erection issues. My doctor was giving me medications to treat my dysfunction. But post my blood test reports he suggested me to take Testosterone injections 250 mg for six months. Shall I go for injections? Will it have any adverse impact on my body. Like baldness or growth of male breast or for that matter any impact. Will my sexual dysfunction be treated with Testosterone injections. Please help as I do not know what to do.

Is it common to experience pain, soreness, and tenderness in the penis after engaging in multiple sexual intercourse?

Hi doctor,

I have had various symptoms throughout the week. I am a little worried as I have mild pain in my penis. I experience soreness and tenderness to pressure. However, I can walk, and I go to work every day. But I feel something abnormal. A day before the weekend, I had relaxed sex in the morning and long and vigorous sex in the afternoon. I did not ejaculate as I had to hold it various times, so I stopped it from coming two times. The next day, I felt a mild tenderness but did not pay attention, and I again had normal sex at night. But the following day, the soreness and tenderness were severe, although I still had vigorous sex in the morning, and I had normal sex at night. Now I feel soreness and tenderness while touching, more on the first inch of the tip (head). And I feel some discomfort. However, the pain is mild and dull. In addition, I have a few questions, is this pain normal? Or is something wrong with me? Do I need to take any medications for this? Is this soreness? Did I fracture my penis? Can this be an infection?

I doubt it is an STD. I had it in the past, and it took around three to four days for the symptoms, like a burning sensation while urination, to develop. However, the next day after these events, I started having this pain, so I think it was early for the symptoms to appear. Also, I go out often with someone so that anything can happen. But I still think it is too early for those symptoms to occur. Is it normal to have soreness and tenderness on the penis after a weekend of sexual intercourse?

Please advice.

What are the possible causes of urine leakage?

Hi doctor,

I am a 63-year-old male. I have been suffering from urine leakage as drops after urination, mainly after baths in the morning and night. At night, I need to get up for urine twice or thrice; reduced frequency after taking Selodin 8 mg with a prescription from a urologist. But now, the main problem is dribbling or incontinence. Please suggest any medicine for this.

Thanks.

What can be done for cut on foreskin during intercourse?

Hello doctor,

I have developed a small cut on my foreskin during an intercourse with my wife. Did not realise it initially but was feeling uncomfortable while passing urine. I washed it and left it unattended for a few days and abstained from having intercourse for some time. It had reduced. I did masturbate a few times and felt a little discomfort though there was not any pain. I recently had an intercourse with my wife and the cut seems to have become fresh again. I took a break from intercourse and masturbation for the past 10 days and started using Fusee B cream for the past one week on the cut before going to sleep. Sometimes during erection, the cut seems to become a little fresh.

Is it normal to have pain in penis for a week after rough masturbation?

Hi doctor,

Seven days ago, I masturbated roughly and afterwards, I noticed my penis/genitals area in pain (burning sensation) around this area for seven days now. I also have noticed my groin/butt area gets really warm from sitting. I have noticed my urethra tip is red as well from seven days. I do not have pain while using the urinal or seeing any blood or discharge. I have started taking antibiotics (Doxycycline) but symptoms still remain. Did urine test and it came out negative. Is it normal to have these symptoms for a week now? Could it be something else than urethritis? How long do you think will symptoms disappear?
