Are bananas good for urinary tract infections (UTIs)?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Bananas and other fiber-rich foods are indeed good for preventing urinary tract infections. They aid proper bowel movement, which helps keep pressure off of the urinary tract. So urine flow is unobstructed, ensuring that bacteria build-up does not happen.

I'm really worried about my sperm count and motility. My total sperm count came back at 8 million. I noticed that only 5% are actively motile, 45% are sluggishly motile, and 50% are non-motile. Also, the morphology shows 70% normal. Based on these figures, could this mean I'm dealing with infertility? And if so, what options or remedies might be available for me?

I've noticed this weird yellowish stuff coming from my penis over the past two days, and it really burns when I pee. I've been masturbating a lot, like every day for a week. What's going on? Should I be worried?
The symptoms you're experiencing yellow discharge and burning sensation while urinating could indicate urethritis, a urinary tract infection, or even an STI. It's important to consult a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment. In the meantime, avoid activities that could irritate the area further and ensure proper hygiene.
