I'm dealing with bilateral grade 1 varicocele and I'm a bit worried about how masturbation might affect it. Is there any connection between masturbation and varicocele, like, could it make it worse? I'm just trying to figure out if it's safe for me to continue or if I should avoid it.

How many times should you pee a day?

Most people urinate between six and eight times a day. But if you're drinking plenty, it's not abnormal to go as many as 10 times a day. You may also pee more often if you're taking certain medications, like diuretics for high blood pressure.
