I'm a bit worried because I tried taking a Manforce 100 mg tablet about 30 minutes before having sex with my girlfriend, but it didn't seem to help me stay longer, and I ended up with a headache after half an hour. Can you tell me the right way to use Manforce 100 mg before sex and how long it's meant to keep you going? I'm also curious about the differences between the 50 mg and 100 mg doses. I'm 23 years old, by the way. Should I stick with the 100 mg?

Manforce (sildenafil) 100 mg should be taken on an empty stomach with water about 1 hour before sex for best results, as it needs time to work. Its effect lasts 46 hours but doesn't directly control duration. If 100 mg causes headaches, try 50 mg instead. Consult a doctor to confirm the dose suitable for you.

I've had bilateral varicocele for the past 2 years and have been feeling dull pain for the last 10 days. I'm taking Venixmin 900 mg and rutoheal but there's no relief. The surgeon said it's mild and doesn't need treatment, but the pain bothers me. I'm in my 4th year of MBBS and worried about infertility risks. If the pain goes away, do I still need any treatment?

What's the better option for frenuloplasty stitchless or with stitches? Are there any side effects I should know about and how much does the surgery usually cost?

For frenuloplasty, a stitchless procedure using a laser or other advanced techniques is generally considered a better option due to quicker recovery, less pain, and reduced risk of infection compared to traditional methods using stitches. Side effects can include mild discomfort, swelling, and bruising, which usually subside within a few days. The cost of frenuloplasty in India typically ranges from INR 30,000 to INR 35,000, but can vary depending on the clinic and specific procedure.
