Can I take Duralast 30mg twice in one day if I want to use it once in the morning and again at night? And is there a stronger pill out there that can help with delaying ejaculation just for one-time use?

Duralast (30mg) is typically prescribed for once-daily use, and taking it twice in one day may increase the risk of side effects. For delaying ejaculation, there are other options like Priligy (dapoxetine), which is specifically designed for on-demand use. It's important to consult with your doctor before adjusting the dosage or trying new medications.

I've been told by an army doctor that I have phimosis, but when I checked myself, I couldn't find any issues. How can I check for phimosis at home on my own?

It is a condition in which the patient is unable to retract the foreskin.Phimosis is normal does not require treatment. If symptoms like redness ,swelling ,odor and difficulty in urination surgery opinion is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with UTI issues again. I had one back in November 2016 and took norflox then, and it cleared up. This time, the problem started on April 3rd, and I took norflox for 5 days along with citralka syrup. It got better, but then it came back after just 2 days. Now it's continuing every day. What should I do? Is there something different I should try or be concerned about?

Recurring UTI symptoms despite antibiotic treatment, including norflox, suggest a possible underlying issue, such as antibiotic resistance, incomplete treatment, or an underlying anatomical or functional abnormality; consider consulting a urologist
