View allI'm 28 and have been struggling with severe erection issues and low sperm count for the past 3 years. I had varicocele surgery on both testicles, but for the last year, there's been no movement in them. I also find it hard to start urinating, and the flow is very slow. My parents are looking for marriage proposals, and I'm really worried about my condition. Which specialist should I see for these problems?

I'm dealing with premature ejaculation and it's really bothering me. Do you have any advice on how I can overcome this issue? I'm looking for effective suggestions or treatments.
Premature ejaculation can be addressed through a combination of lifestyle changes, therapy, and sometimes medication. I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider or a urologist, who can evaluate your situation and suggest treatments such as behavioral techniques, counseling, or medications to help manage this condition effectively.

I'm really concerned about the size of my testiclesthey're only about 3cm in length and look more like grapes. I've talked to my local doctor, and he confirmed that they're small. I'm worried if this means my sperm count could be affected. Is there any way to increase their size to something more normal without needing surgery?
.sperm production takes place in testicles.. But you just need 20 million sperm per ml for fertility... There are chances even when sperm count is less than that... So get semen analysis done in diagnostic and consult general physician in nearest hospital.
