I'm looking at my semen analysis report and I'm a bit concerned about the results. It says my progressive motile sperm count is 30, non-progressive motile count is 25, and in total, the motile sperm count is 45. I'm wondering if these numbers are okay when trying to have a baby with my wife, or if I should be consulting a doctor to work on increasing that progressive motile count. Is a count of 30 generally good enough for us to conceive, or is there something I should be doing?

WHO standards place desired progressive motility count at 32%. Overall motility at 40%. It may be advisable to visit a sexual health consultant and obtain a more detailed treatment plan.

Question

What are symptoms of urinary tract infection?

I'm having trouble with premature ejaculation, and it's really affecting my newly married life. I tried consulting a doctor who recommended using LOX2 jelly for three months, but I'm still not seeing any improvement. What else can I do? I'm still ejaculating in about 20 to 30 seconds and it's quite frustrating.

Question

I'm curious about the effects of daily masturbation. Is it harmful in any way, and could it lead to any issues now or later on? Would appreciate some advice.
