I'm a bit concerned because my father has had laser prostate treatments twice before, once in 2011 when his prostate was 50mm, and then again in 2014 when it was 60mm. Despite that, he still has issues with prostate enlargement. By August 2015, his prostate had grown to 76mm. We decided to try ayurvedic treatment, and by October 2015, it's down to 56mm. Is this kind of fluctuation normal, and should we be worried about long-term effects or stability, especially since he has gone through both laser and ayurvedic treatments? Any advice on what to keep an eye on or consider moving forward?

I'm 24 and have been experiencing some issues due to over-masturbation, like lower erection, semen leakage, and fatigue. I also find it hard to concentrate, and I feel like my strength is decreasing, which is messing with my mental state. I'm thinking about trying kohinoor gold plus and shilajit capsules to help with these side effects. Do you think they could be effective for someone in my situation?
