I'm just curious about how often my wife and I can have sex in a month without causing any negative effects on our bodies now or in the future. I want to make sure we're both staying healthy, so how frequently is considered safe?

Having a healthy sexual relationship with your partner is important for overall well-being. There is no specific number of times that is considered ideal for sexual activity in a month as it varies for each couple. It is important to listen to your body and communicate openly with your partner to ensure that both of you are comfortable and enjoying the intimacy. As long as both partners are consenting and comfortable, there is no set limit on how many times you can engage in sexual activity in a month.

I have a 7mm kidney stone stuck in my right pelviureteric junction can medicines help pass it or is surgery the only option? What would you recommend?

How does a man perform kegel exercises?

Exercises that target pelvic floor muscles are to be done.To find your pelvic floor muscles, stop urinating in midstream or tighten the muscles that keep you from passing gas. Both actions use your pelvic floor muscles. Once you've identified your pelvic floor muscles, you can exercise them in any position. However, you might find it easier to do them lying down at first. Tighten your pelvic floor muscles, hold for three seconds and then relax for three seconds. Try it a few times in a row. When your muscles get stronger, try doing Kegel exercises while sitting, standing or walking. For best results, focus on tightening only your pelvic floor muscles. Be careful not to flex the muscles in your abdomen, thighs or buttocks. Avoid holding your breath. Instead, breathe freely during the exercises. Repeat three times a day. Aim to do at least three sets of 10 repetitions a day.
