I found out I have mild to moderate varicocele in my left testis after a Doppler test and ultrasound. Could prone masturbation be causing this? What should I do next is surgery necessary or are there other options?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Varicocele is not caused by masturbation. Mild-to-moderate cases are usually managed conservatively. Surgery (varicocelectomy) is needed only if fertility is affected or pain persists.

It's possible your penile meatus (the opening at the tip of the penis) is narrowing, potentially due to meatal stenosis or a urethral stricture. While surgery is often the primary treatment for these conditions, dilation (stretching the opening) may be an option, and in some cases, the narrowing might resolve on its own or with other treatments. It's crucial to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment recommendations, as they can assess the severity and suggest the best course of action

I've been measuring and my penis is around 7.5 inches which seems decent, but I'm noticing it looks a bit thinner than I'd like. I'm really curious, is there a way to increase its thickness?
It's normal for penises to vary in shape and size. While there are no guaranteed methods to increase thickness significantly, exercises like jelqing or treatments such as dermal fillers may help, but it's best to consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice and to address any concerns.

I've had paraphimosis for about 3-4 days now and it feels like something's stuck under my foreskin when I pee, just a little bit. I've been masturbating daily and pulling my foreskin back for weeks could that be the cause? Is there any way to fix this without surgery?
It's possible that your daily masturbation and foreskin retraction are contributing to the paraphimosis, as it can lead to inflammation and swelling. While some cases of paraphimosis can be treated without surgery, it's crucial to seek immediate medical attention, especially if you're experiencing pain or difficulty urinating
