Question 1

I'm a bit confused and worried about something that's been happening during sex with my wife. After intercourse, I notice this thread-like sticky substance coming from my penis, and I'm trying to figure out if it's sperm or just precum because my penis becomes smaller and slips out afterwards. I'm 42 and not sure if this is normal or something I should be worried about. Can you help me understand what's happening?

Accepted Answer

Based on your description, it sounds like ejaculation occurred, as the sticky thread-like fluid coming from your penis likely contains both sperm and seminal fluid. Precum typically appears before ejaculation and may not always contain sperm, but during ejaculation, sperm is released. If you have concerns about fertility or reproductive health, it's best to consult a doctor for evaluation.

Question 2

I'm really wondering about what to do next. I was using Triamcinolone Acetonide Ointment USP 0.5 for phimosis for the last couple of months while I was in America. Now that I'm in India, I'm finding it hard to find the exact same thing. I've heard about Betnovate and Diprovate G as possible alternatives. Could one of these be a good replacement, or is there something else I should consider? I'm honestly a bit concerned about switching and just want to make sure I'm continuing with the right treatment.

Accepted Answer

For phimosis, you can consider Betnovate (Betamethasone) or Diprovate-G (Betamethasone with Gentamicin). Both are effective, but Diprovate-G may help if there's an infection component due to the presence of Gentamicin. However, I recommend consulting your doctor to ensure the right choice based on your specific condition.

Question 3

I've done a semen culture test and it says I have a bacteria called staphylococcus aureus with moderate growth. I'm not sure what this means. I had a urinary infection a year ago that didn't seem to go away, and after some tests, I found out I had a bacteria called proteus which got cured with medicine. But now, a month after treatment, the semen test is showing this new bacteria. Can you explain what staphylococcus aureus is and which type of doctor I should talk to about fixing this issue?

Accepted Answer

The presence of Staphylococcus aureus (moderate growth) in your semen culture test indicates a bacterial infection, which can cause symptoms like discharge, pain, or inflammation; given your history of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and previous bacterial infection (Proteus), consult a urologis

I have phimosis and I'm really worried can it be treated with medication or will I need surgery? If surgery is the only option, can you recommend a good clinic in East Delhi for the procedure?
