I'm experiencing heart palpitations and I'm really worried. I usually masturbate about 5 times a week and I'm constantly stressed out. Can anxiety and masturbation lead to heart palpitations or cause chest discomfort?

I've been diagnosed with mitral valve prolapse and I've got a bit of trivial regurgitation. The doctors said I don't need any treatment for it, which is reassuring, but Ive been using minoxidil 5% for my baldness and sometimes I notice my heart beats a little faster. My cardiologist mentioned it's okay to use it, and my dermatologist also recommended it knowing these symptoms. Is it genuinely safe to keep using minoxidil in my situation? I'm just a bit worried about how it might affect my heart condition.

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I'm really confused about my cholesterol levels. I just found out they're very high, even though I'm pretty active and do heavy workouts every day. I'm 76 kg and 173 cm tall. I thought exercising regularly would help, but my cholesterol still isn't going down. Can someone explain why this might be happening or what I should consider doing next?

In addition to exercise, it's important to focus on your diet and possibly consider medication to help lower your cholesterol levels. I recommend you start taking Atorvastatin 20mg once daily. This medication will help lower your cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. Remember to continue your exercise routine and follow a healthy diet to further improve your cholesterol levels.

I'm really worried because I fainted like 45 times yesterday while I was with my boyfriend. It all started when I suddenly passed out while hugging and kissing him. He managed to wake me up each time and even gave me some chocolate to eat, but I kept fainting again after a few minutes. The whole time, he was holding me and trying to calm me down. I hadn't eaten anything since last night, except for a cup of milk then and another one this morning. Could this be because I didn't eat enough, or is it something more serious?

You experienced repeated fainting spells (syncope) while hugging and kissing your boyfriend. Possible causes: Medical Conditions 1. Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar): Lack of food intake, especially after milk consumption. 2. Dehydration: Insufficient fluid intake. 3. Anxiety or stress: Emotional distress. 4. Cardiovascular issues: Rare, but possible
