Q&A for How to Do Kegel Exercises for Men

Erectile dysfunction can be caused by any number of things, so don't get your hopes up that simply doing Kegels will solve your issue. It certainly will help, but there's no guarantee that it will magically go away. See a doctor when in doubt.

Yes it is, it doesn't change whether you are a bachelor or not. Keep at it.

It is not possible to tell your body where you want it to remove fat; for example, doing push-ups does not reduce only arm fat. If you take in more calories than you burn, the body stores this energy as fat, usually first around the abdomen, then also waist, legs, arms, neck, chin, etc. If you burn more calories, the body will convert this fat back to energy, usually from all reserves more or less simultaneously, with the abdomen coming last. So, to reduce the buttocks, do cardio, eat well, sleep well, drink lots of water, burn more calories than you take in.

Consult with a healthcare professional to determine the underlying cause of the pelvic pain.

Edging, or delaying orgasm, can have potential benefits and risks. While it may enhance pleasure and intimacy, excessive stimulation can cause discomfort, pain, or injury. Listen to your body and communicate with your partner for a safe experience. If you feel pain or prolonged discomfort, stop and allow your body to recover. Prioritize your health and well-being during sexual activities.

To locate your pelvic floor muscles, try stopping the flow of urine midstream; those are the muscles you need to target. Practice Kegel exercises by contracting and relaxing these muscles. Aim for 10-15 repetitions, 3 times a day, and make it a habit to do them consistently. However, don't overdo it; listen to your body and start with a comfortable number, gradually increasing as you progress.
