Question 1

I'm dealing with erectile dysfunction, and it's been going on for two years since I got married. Recently, I've also noticed that I'm struggling with anxiety for the past year. It's been quite a challenge, and I'm really concerned about how these issues might be affecting each other. Could there be a connection between my anxiety and erectile dysfunction? What steps should I take to address this?

Accepted Answer

take medicine

Question 2

I'm dealing with a grade 2 varicocele and I'm really into my gym workouts. Is it okay for me to continue going to the gym? Also, are there any specific things I need to watch out for or avoid while exercising? On top of that, are there any medications or treatments I should consider to help reverse or manage this?

Accepted Answer

With Varicocele Grade 2, you can still go to the gym, but take precautions to avoid exacerbating the condition: avoid heavy lifting, bending, or straining, wear supportive underwear or a jockstrap, and take regular breaks to rest and elevate your scrotum; however, consult your doctor or a urologist before starting or continuing exercise, as they may recommend specific exercises or restrictions based on your individual condition; regarding medications, Varicocele often requires surgical treatment, but pain relief medications like ibuprofen or acetaminophen may be prescribed to manage discomfort, and hormone-regulating medications like clomiphene may be considered in some cases, but only under medical supervision.

Question 3

I've been having some problems and I'm really worried. I can't feel any pleasure from my penis. It's like my foreskin doesn't even register touch, and instead of feeling good, my glans hurts when I touch it. Plus, when I rub it, I get this weird nerve twitch in my groin. Does this mean I could have neuropathy? There's no pleasure with or without lube, and even though I can ejaculate after some time, I've never experienced an orgasm. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

Accepted Answer

I'm sorry you're experiencing this discomfort. It sounds like you may be dealing with a combination of nerve sensitivity or damage, possibly related to neuropathy or another underlying issue. I recommend seeing a urologist or a neurologist to properly evaluate your symptoms and determine the best course of treatment.

I was diagnosed with grade 2 varicocele back in 2018 and have been using a supporter regularly since then. Some days I get slight pain in my scrotum, maybe once a month should I consider surgery or is there another way to manage this?

Grade 2 varicocele can be managed conservatively unless pain or infertility occurs‚Äîthen surgery is advised.
