I have a grade 3 varicocele on the left side and grade 2 on the right, with a sperm count of 26 million per ml. What's the better option to improve my sperm count homeopathy or surgery?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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

View allI'm really concerned because the frenulum on my penis seems to be partially torn, and now I don't experience the same level of pleasure or sensitivity as I used to during orgasms. There's no bleeding, just a bit of pain. I'm wondering what steps I should take and which type of doctor would be best to consult about this issue.
The torn frenulum can lead to decreased pleasure and sensitivity during orgasm. You can use a topical anesthetic cream containing Lidocaine to help with the pain. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen. It is advisable to consult a Urologist for further evaluation and management.

I have an 11mm stone in my left kidney and my doctors recommended RIRS laser surgery but I'm wondering if lithotripsy could work instead for my case
Surgery is advised to the patient since the stone size is larger .Since stone size is 11mm if untreated may lead to complications like abdominal pain,backpain and infection etc.

I'm 26 and I've been masturbating regularly since I was 16. Lately, I've noticed that my penis seems smaller and it won't get erect unless I'm watching porn or engaging in phone sex. I'm really worried about this and I'm not sure what to do. Could this be a real problem? Any advice would be appreciated.
It's common to develop certain habits like relying on porn or phone sex for arousal, which can affect natural stimulation. This doesn't mean permanent damage. Try reducing reliance on porn gradually, focus on healthy lifestyle changes, and consult a doctor or therapist for personalized guidance to address concerns about erectile health and confidence.
