Advice

When people are new to sex in general, or with a new partner -- in your case, both! -- it's totally typical to find they have a hard time reaching orgasm, that it happens more quickly than they'd like, or to experience other ways where sexual responses either aren't what was expected or what they...

Your question isn't silly. Privacy around any kind of sex is a big concern for many people, whether they live with parents, housemates or partners. Many people feel that masturbation is a very private thing, and don't necessarily want to shout it out to their parents that they are going to go...

I probably can't help you keep erections or ejaculation from happening when you don't want them to, since that's just something largely, and often entirely, outside someone's control. Hopefully what I can do is help you to worry about it less and accept the way your body is right now more. We hear...

From a reproductive standpoint, the purpose of an erection is to allow for insertion of the penis into the vaginal canal and ejaculation. Once the erection has served that purpose, there is no reason for it to continue. Also, typically after ejaculation or orgasm, sexual arousal wans. As that...

Know what is really NOT a good way to find out if you're able to be a Dad at 15? To wind up being a Dad at 15. You seriously do NOT want to be that guy. Heck, even if you have a partner who terminates a pregnancy you caused, that's an awful lot to put her through for nothing. It's very unusual for a...

It's generally agreed that when switching from one pill to the next, you do not have to worry about being without effective protection, so long as you didn't take more than a one-week placebo period between the two types of pills. The douching is a larger issue. Douching -- when specific douches at...
