Problem for me is that during some time with my wife I feel like I have to pee. It is not a UTI or other issue. When I stopped riding the bike for a week, the issue was gone, when I started again, that feeling came back. I absolutely refuse to accept any sort of prostate or ED type issue for riding a bike.

When I just had the cruiser to ride this was not an issue.
I would guess that a different saddle, one that supports your pelvis better, would help. I had sworn off upright bikes entirely (in favor of recumbents) until I tried WTB brand saddles. These fit my anatomy and make riding upright bikes acceptable.

Nothing we say is going to help- you'll have to try them out yourself.
