Question 1

I've been diagnosed with bilateral varicocele grade 1 on the right side and grade 2 on the left. Lately, I've noticed my testicles shrinking, along with weaker erections and lower sex drive. I've tried ayurvedic and homeopathic treatments, but I'm not sure if they're helping. What's the best way to treat this? Also, could surgery lead to fertility problems down the line?

Accepted Answer

For a bilateral varicocele with associated testicular shrinkage, weaker erections, and lower sex drive, the best course of action is to consult a urologist or reproductive endocrinologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan. While surgery is the most common and effective treatment, other options like embolization or lifestyle changes might be considered. Surgery, while generally safe, may have a small risk of impacting fertility, but this is often manageable

Question 2

I'm wondering if applying olive oil every day to the penis and glans might lead to a loss of sensation there. Just a bit worried and curious about the possible effects it could have. Could this actually make the area less sensitive over time?

Accepted Answer

Daily massage with olive oil on the penis and glans is unlikely to cause a sensationless penis. However, excessive or improper use of any oil or substance could potentially lead to irritation or sensitivity issues. It's important to consult a healthcare provider if you experience any unusual changes or discomfort.

Question 3

I'm wondering how many times a healthy person should normally pee if they're drinking 8 glasses of water each day. Is there a usual frequency I should expect, or could it be different for everyone?
