I have a 15 mm stone in my right kidney at the PUJ and a 9 mm stone in my left kidney, both causing mild hydronephrosis. My doctor recommended laser surgery with a stent, but I'm wondering how long I can delay this procedure. Are there any homeopathic medicines that could dissolve stones this size? My serum creatinine is 1.13, and I've attached my KUB sonography results.

Large PUJ stones with hydronephrosis need surgery soon—homeopathy is unlikely to work; delay risks kidney damage.

my urologist recommended surgery for phimosis but I'm not sure if it's the best option or if there are any side effects I should be worried about
It's understandable to have concerns about surgical options for phimosis, especially when you're unsure about the best course of action or potential side effects. Surgery for phimosis, often circumcision, is generally recommended when non-surgical treatments like steroid creams or manual stretching haven't been successful, or if the phimosis is causing significant problems like recurring infections or pain. Potential side effects of circumcision include infection, bleeding, and scarring, but these are usually manageable

I'm really struggling with erectile dysfunction and it's starting to ruin my marriage. It wasn't such a big deal at first, but it just hasn't gone away. We've been married for four years now and it's gotten to the point where we don't even have any intimacy anymore because of this. What should I do? Can you help?
Erectile dysfunction (ED) can be emotionally challenging, especially in a marital context; consider consulting a urologist or a sex therapist to address underlying causes, which may include physical factors (e.g., diabetes, hypertension), psychological factors (e.g., anxiety, depression), or lifestyle factors (e.g., smoking, obesity); counseling and therapy can also help you and your partner reconnect and strengthen your relationship.
