your kidney cysts don't need surgery. Prostate may need treatment if it is causing problems. See your family doctor or a urologist for this.

I've been masturbating since I was 15 and I'm 17 now. I've heard that it might lower zinc and testosterone levels, and it's really got me anxious. Could you please tell me if that's actually true?

Masturbation does not decrease zinc or testosterone levels significantly. It is a normal and healthy activity. To maintain healthy levels of zinc and testosterone, you can include zinc-rich foods in your diet such as oysters, beef, and nuts. If you have concerns about your testosterone levels, you can consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.
