I had varicocele surgery two months ago but still have testicle pain. The recent scan shows some veins are still there and it's now grade 1. Do I need another surgery or are there other options to manage this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's understandable to be concerned about ongoing pain after varicocele surgery, especially with a grade 1 varicocele still present. While some vein persistence is normal, persistent pain warrants further investigation. While repeat surgery could be an option, other conservative measures and interventions should be considered first

I'm really curious about how mast**u**rbation affects testosterone levels. Like, is there a frequency that's considered okay or safe? I'm just a bit worried because I've read that doing it too much can mess with testosterone, and I want to make sure I'm not unintentionally causing any issues. Can you share any insights on how often it's alright without it impacting testosterone levels?
Masturbation does not significantly affect testosterone levels in the long term. Its generally safe and normal to masturbate as often as you feel comfortable, as long as it doesnt interfere with your daily life, relationships, or responsibilities.
