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 wondering why my urologist recommended Dytor 10 for my 6.5mm kidney stone. Could you explain how it helps with the stone, and if there's anything specific I should be aware of while taking it?

Its a loop diuretic acting at Na-K-2Cl reabsorptive pump at ascending loop of Henle in your kidneys; interferes with chloride-binding cotransport system, causing increased excretion of water, sodium, chlorine, magnesium, and calcium..once water excretion increased there will be chances of your stones passing with out any surgical intervention

I'm trying to understand what's going on with some recent scan results. It mentions there's a right pleural effusion that's under 100 ml. How serious is that? Should I be worried? Also, it says there's a thick-walled urinary bladder with some post-void residue, and I'm wondering if it's linked to cystitis. Could you explain what this all means and what steps I should consider next?

That could be Urosepsis,do not neglect,visit Physician for appropriate management

If someone touches a male penis with their hand and then later uses that same hand to touch a female vagina, is there a real chance of pregnancy happening? I'm just trying to understand the possibilities here and would appreciate any insight you could offer.

depends on wether it has contact of sperms
