I am a woman who, when she urinates, urinates outside the edge of the seat, causing to leak to the floor and saturate my clothes. What's going on?

I had an injury to my clitoris, which required stitches. I let it heal on its own. I think the extra skin may be causing the issue. What are your thoughts?

I would agree that you should be examined by a urologist. I think something must be obstructing the urethra and that the problem may only be external. This is hard to say, however, which is why an examination is in order.

I'm a 55-year-old male with a 46-year-old wife. We use a lubricant while having sex but I still get blood blisters around the head after. I was told I have HPV and an antibiotic/steroid cream was given to me to put around the head prior to this happening. I was then told the steroid, if used too regularly, can cause the skin to thin out.
