I have a varicocele measuring 2.5 mm on the right side and 3.2 mm on the left side. Can you suggest any effective allopathic or ayurvedic medicines for this? Is it possible to treat without surgery?

Varicocele can often be managed conservatively; both allopathic and Ayurvedic options may help relieve symptoms, but surgery may be needed if there's infertility or severe discomfort.

I'm really worried about my sperm count and motility. My total sperm count came back at 8 million. I noticed that only 5% are actively motile, 45% are sluggishly motile, and 50% are non-motile. Also, the morphology shows 70% normal. Based on these figures, could this mean I'm dealing with infertility? And if so, what options or remedies might be available for me?

My dad has been dealing with frequent urination for a long time. The reports show no infection, but he still goes way too often even though he doesn't drink much water. He also struggles with controlling it because of the frequency. Is there a permanent fix for this? Could surgery help solve the problem?

However, frequent urination can also indicate an underlying problem. Some of these may include kidney or ureter problems, urinary bladder problems, diabetes, and prostate gland problems.
