I'm dealing with something called polycystic and I'm not exactly sure what that means. Could you give me some advice on what exercises or foods might help with this condition? I'm really looking for some guidance here.

Consult a doctor or urologist for proper guidance. They may recommend:
- Topical creams or ointments to loosen the foreskin.
- Gradual stretching exercises.
- Preputioplasty (a minor surgical procedure).
- Circumcision (as a last resort).
Avoid forcing the foreskin back, as it can cause further injury and scarring.

View allIs it okay to take Sinarest while I'm on Inderal 40mg? I've been dealing with Graves' disease and was on Neo Mercazole 5mg with Inderal for months, but they recently stopped the Neo Mercazole. I'm continuing with the Inderal, and now I've got this blocked nose and watery eyes because of my sinus. Could you let me know if adding Sinarest would be alright?
Taking Sinarest, which contains paracetamol, phenylephrine, and chlorpheniramine, along with Inderal 40mg can potentially increase the blood pressure-lowering effects of Inderal. This combination may also increase the risk of side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and difficulty concentrating. It is important to consult your doctor before taking Sinarest while on Inderal 40mg. Your doctor may suggest alternative medications for your sinus symptoms that do not interact with your current medication regimen.

I'm a 28-year-old male and I've been masturbating since I was 15. Now, I'm worried because my gonads and penis seem small and my testosterone levels are at 450 ngdL. From what I've found online, this seems low and might be due to hypogonadism. I'm experiencing some signs of low testosteronelike premature ejaculation, less muscle mass, mood swings, low self-confidence, and hair thinning. I recently saw a doctor about my hair loss, and she gave me DUTASTERIDE, but I'm unsure if I should take it since I think my testosterone might be low. Is 450 ngdL considered low? If it is low, what's the best treatment? Should I consider testosterone replacement therapy or something else? What can I do to overcome these issues?
