I'm 33 and dealing with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia. I have urethra pain, a weak urine stream, incontinence, and feel like my bladder never fully empties. I've been taking Tab Alfoo and Urotone for 20 days but barely see any improvement. Is surgery the only way to treat BPH? How can I manage this long-term without stressing too much about it?

While you're young for BPH, it's not unusual to experience its symptoms. Surgery isn't the only treatment option, and there are ways to manage it long-term without excessive stress. Medications, lifestyle adjustments, and proactive monitoring can significantly improve your quality of life

I'm 19 and I've recently stopped watching porn and masturbating. However, since then, I've been experiencing nightfall almost every day. Is there a way to address this issue or something I'm missing? I'm really looking for some advice here.
It's normal to experience nightfall (nocturnal emissions) during adolescence, especially after changes in sexual habits. It usually resolves on its own over time. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular sleep, stress management, and avoiding overstimulation can help reduce frequency. If it continues or concerns you, a visit to a doctor might provide further reassurance.

I've just got my urine test results back and it mentions something about PUS cells being 56 hpf. My doctor said it's a UTI. What should I be doing to treat it, and is there anything I should be worried about?
For a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) diagnosis with 5-6 pus cellshpf, your doctor will likely prescribe antibiotics, such as Nitrofurantoin, Ciprofloxacin, or Amoxicillin, for 3-7 days to clear the infection; also, drink plenty of water, urinate when needed, and practice good hygiene; potential risk factors if left untreated include kidney damage, recurrent infections, and sepsis, so complete the full antibiotic course and follow up
