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 have partial phimosis where my foreskin retracts fully when flaccid but only goes back to the glans when erect should I see a sexologist for this Will they recommend surgery or can it be fixed without it If non-surgical treatment is possible how long would it take for the foreskin to fully retract when erect

Partial phimosis may be treated with steroid creams and stretching exercises.Seeing a urologist or sexologist can help determine if surgery is needed.Treatment may take several weeks.

I've been diagnosed with venous leak and heard penile implants might be the only solution are there other treatments or methods to fix this without surgery? Really worried about going under the knife and looking for alternatives

Other options include PRP, shockwave therapy, and vacuum devices‚Äîimplants are for cases unresponsive to all treatments.

I'm a 21-year-old guy with a tight foreskin, and it's making me nervous about sex because I'm worried it'll hurt. I've been thinking about circumcision but don't know much about the procedure or what to expect after. Should I bring someone with me when I get it done, and roughly how much does it cost in Bangalore? Also, how long does recovery usually take? I really want to get this sorted soon since it's been bothering me a lot.

Consult a local surgeon. It's a minor surgery.
