I'm noticing that my sexual libido is dropping, and I think it's related to how often I masturbate. Could you suggest foods that might help boost my libido? Also, I've been feeling low on energy during sex. Any advice on what I could do to get that energy level up?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A decrease in libido and energy during sex can sometimes be linked to diet and lifestyle. To support sexual health, consider incorporating foods rich in zinc (like pumpkin seeds, spinach, and seafood), healthy fats (such as avocados and nuts), and antioxidants (like berries and dark chocolate). Also, ensure you're getting enough rest, managing stress, and staying hydrated.

View allI'm dealing with a 3mm stone in my left kidney. I'm curious if there's any general medicine in homeopathy that could help me pass it. Also, is there something preventive I could take to avoid future stones?
3mm stone will usually pass through urine on its own, no need of any treatment, but keep yourself well hydrated all time so that you can avoid formation of stone further, Regarding alternative medicine sorry I have no knowledge in that so cannot advice you.

I'm really confused and worried right now. Yesterday, I had a really bad stomachache and ended up going to the hospital. They gave me an injection for the pain, and after some time, I started feeling better. The doctor took an X-ray and showed me that I have three kidney stones, about 8mm each. He prescribed medicines for 5 days but recommended that I get laser surgery to remove the stones. I'm not sure if I should go through with the surgery. Is it possible to avoid surgery and get rid of the stones with just medication? I'd really appreciate your advice.
Given the size (8mm) and number (3) of kidney stones, laser surgery (lithotripsy) is a common and effective treatment, but it's not the only option; your doctor may consider medical expulsive therapy (MET) using medications like alpha-blockers (e.g., Tamsulosin) to help pass the stones naturally; however, the success of MET depends on the size, location, and number of stones, as well as your overall health, so it's essential to discuss the risks and benefits of both surgery and medical treatment with your doctor to determine the best course of action for your specific situation.

I've been regularly having oral sex with my wife and I'm wondering if it's safe. Are there any precautions we should be aware of?
Oral sex with your wife is generally safe if both of you are healthy and practice good hygiene. It's important to ensure both partners are free from any infections or sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Regular dental checkups and using barriers like dental dams can help reduce risks, along with maintaining open communication about sexual health.
