I'm a bit worried because I used to have random and morning erections, which I assumed were normal, but for the past month they've stopped completely. I also feel like my sex drive has really decreased. Is this something I should be concerned about, or could it be a normal phase?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's not uncommon for sexual drive and erections to fluctuate due to factors like stress, lifestyle changes, or hormonal imbalances. However, if youve noticed a persistent decrease in libido and erectile function, it might be helpful to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues like hormonal imbalances or other health conditions.

View allI have a 7mm lower ureteric stone and right now I'm feeling pain at the tip of my penis along with some burning sensation There's also mild pain in the upper bladder area but no kidney pain at the moment I'm taking dynapar lasix and alfoo tablets Do you think this stone can pass naturally or will I need surgery
A 7mm stone in the lower ureter might pass naturally, but it's not guaranteed. The pain you're experiencing, especially at the tip of your penis and burning sensation, could indicate a potential issue. pain can shift around as the stone moves through the urinary tract.

Had emergency kidney stone surgery last Thursday and still have the urethra stent in. I've called the urologist's office multiple times but keep getting the runaround it's been five days now and I'm really worried. What should I do about getting the stent removed?
It's understandable that you're concerned about the ureteral stent after your emergency kidney stone surgery. After five days, it's important to clarify your situation and get the stent removed. If you haven't been given specific instructions about removing it yourself (with a string attached), you should contact your urologist again and request a removal appointment

I've been struggling with premature ejaculation and it's causing a lot of stress and anxiety in my relationship. I've heard about lycopodium 1mg and I'm wondering if it actually helps with this issue. Also, can it address erectile dysfunction and the feelings of being overly excited or anxious during intimate moments? Its getting pretty frustrating and I'd really appreciate any advice.
_Thyroid Antibody Test Results and Thyroid Function: Understanding the Implications_ Given your test results, here's a breakdown of what they mean and recommendations for next steps: *Thyroid Antibody Test Results* 1. *Elevated Anti-Thyroid Peroxidase (TPO) antibody*: A level greater than 1300 indicates the presence of autoimmune thyroiditis, such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis. 2. *Normal Anti-Thyroglobulin (Tg) antibody*: A level of 28 is within the normal range, which suggests that the autoimmune response is primarily targeted against thyroid peroxidase (TPO) rather than thyroglobulin (Tg). *Thyroid Function Test Results* 1. *T3, T4, and TSH levels within normal ranges*: These results indicate that your thyroid gland is functioning normally, and hormone levels are within the expected ranges. *Vitamin D Level* 1. *Low Vitamin D level*: A level of 12 is considered deficient. Vitamin D plays a crucial role in immune system regulation and overall health. *Recommendations* 1. *Consult an endocrinologist*: Schedule an appointment with an endocrinologist to discuss your test results and determine the best course of action. 2. *Thyroid scan or ultrasound*: The endocrinologist may recommend a thyroid scan or ultrasound to evaluate the structure and function of your thyroid gland. 3. *Vitamin D supplementation*: Consider taking Vitamin D supplements to address the deficiency, as recommended by your healthcare provider. 4. *Monitoring and follow-up*: Regular monitoring of your thyroid function and antibody levels will help your healthcare provider adjust treatment plans as needed. Please consult an endocrinologist or a healthcare professional to discuss your specific situation and determine the best course of action.
