Consistency of Healthy Sperm:
- Healthy sperm typically has a thick, gel-like consistency initially.
- It becomes more liquid or runny after a short time due to enzyme activity.

View allI'm a bit concerned about my grandma's recent urine report. It says there are 15-20 pus cells per high power field. She doesnt really have any other issues, except she sometimes has incontinence. She's on some Ayurvedic treatment for that. What does it mean to have that number of pus cells? Should we be worried?
The normal range of pus cells in the urine is 0-5. Since the report suggests pus cells of 15-20 and bacteria is present, it is suggestive of urinary tract infection(UTI). Ideally you should send the urine for culture so that the most sensitive antibiotics can be used.

is there any surgical procedure to increase penis size and what kind of risks or side effects come with it i'm really concerned about the safety and long-term effects
Penile enlargement surgeries exist but carry risks like infection, nerve damage, and dissatisfaction with results—non-surgical options are not proven.

I've had a hernia on the left side of my groin for a while, and recently noticed my spermatocele in the upper scrotum has gotten bigger. The hernia has been a bit painful the last few days, and the spermatocele seems to have grown around the same time. Could the hernia be causing the spermatocele to increase in size? If I get hernia surgery, will that help with the spermatocele too? Are there any non-surgical treatments for spermatocele that might help?
Apollo is best for it.
