does circumcision really help with premature ejaculation by reducing sensitivity or is that just a myth
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
No, circumcision generally does not help with premature ejaculation. While some believe it can reduce sensitivity and thus help with premature ejaculation, studies have not found any significant effects on sexual function, including premature ejaculation

View allMy report says the ureters are obscured and there's a 5 mm kidney stone. Can a stone this size pass without surgery? What noninvasive tests like CT or MRI should I do to check for obstruction and locate the stone?
A 5mm kidney stone has a good chance of passing on its own, but a CT scan or MRI can help determine if the stone is obstructing the ureter and if further intervention is needed. CT scans are the preferred method for assessing kidney stones, as they are highly sensitive and can provide detailed images of the urinary tract.

My doctor found a 12 mm stone in my bladder and recommended laser lithotripsy. I'm a bit nervous about surgery are there any other treatment options I could try first?
yes advised.

Can lithotripsy work for a 22mm kidney stone? I'm really scared of surgery and hoping there's another option
Stones that are smaller than 2 cm in diameter are the best size for SWL. The treatment might not be effective in very large ones. SWL is more appropriate for some people than others. Because x-rays and shock waves are needed in SWL, pregnant women with stones are not treated this way.
