I'm feeling super confused and kind of worried about masturbation. I usually do it once a month, but afterward, I end up feeling really down, tense, and sort of hopeless. It also messes with my motivation for studying and work. I've heard so many mixed opinions about whether masturbation can be bad for mental, sexual, or physical health. Some doctors say it's perfectly fine, while others call it a harmful habit. Can it really affect someone this much, or is it no big deal? I'd love to understand this better.

Stress and pain can also stimulate the serotonin and melatonin production in the brain, which transforms painful experiences into pleasure. The release of epinephrine and norepinephrine in pain can also cause a pleasurable 'rush'.

I'm really worried about my wife. She's been getting angry a lot lately, and it's starting to become violent and abusive. We've only been married for a year, and she's 32. It seems like she can't control her anger and becomes really stubborn, refusing to listen to anyone. I'm not sure what to do. Can you give me some advice on how to handle this?

To confirm TB elimination, patients typically undergo a combination of tests and evaluations. Here are the key indicators: - *Sputum Smear Conversion*: Patients need to show negative sputum smear results, indicating the absence of TB bacteria . - *Chest X-ray*: A chest X-ray is taken to check for any remaining signs of TB infection. - *Clinical Evaluation*: The patient's overall health and symptoms are assessed to ensure they have improved. - *Follow-up Tests*: Additional tests, such as sputum cultures or molecular tests, may be conducted to confirm the elimination of TB bacteria. It's essential to note that TB treatment typically lasts for 6-9 months, and AKT3 is not a standard TB treatment regimen. I recommend consulting a healthcare professional for personalized guidance and confirmation of TB elimination.
