For improving sperm count in the context of grade 3 and 2 varicoceles, surgery (specifically varicocelectomy) is generally considered the more effective option, while homeopathy is not a scientifically recognized treatment for varicoceles or for improving sperm count

I'm curious about using coconut parachute oil for massaging my penis. My goal is to make it smoother, harder, and larger, aiming for a more satisfactory size. Is this an effective method, and are there any risks I should be aware of?

While massaging with coconut oil can help moisturize the skin, there is no scientific evidence to support that it will increase size, hardness, or enhance performance. For concerns about sexual health, it's best to consult a healthcare professional to address any specific issues you may have.
