How do you diagnose erectile dysfunction?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's mostly based on history of symptoms such as trouble getting an erection, trouble keeping an erection and reduced sexual desire. Tests are done to know the presence of any organic causes.

View allI'm really struggling with something and need some advice. I've been addicted to masturbation for almost 15 years now, and although I do it less often these days, I'm dealing with some serious issues because of it. I have IBS, chronic fatigue, hair loss, fatty liver, and memory problems. It's tough for me to concentrate, and I often feel depressed with really low energy levels. Can you please help me figure out how to fix this situation?

I recently found out I have a 7mm stone in my left kidney, and I'm worried about whether it's dangerous or not. I'm really hoping to avoid surgery, so are there any good treatments out there for this? Would love to hear more about my options.
7mm renal calculi definitely needs surgical management.... any blockage of urinary flow due to calculi wil lead to infection or hydronephrosis . kindly consult urologist and get treated...
