I'm really concerned because I've been married for a year now and still haven't been able to have penetrative sex with my wife. Every time I try to get close, I either lose my erection or can only get the tip of my penis in. Plus, her vagina feels really tight and she can only handle one finger without pain. We're both working professionals and end up tired by the end of the day. I'm not sure if this is due to my erectile dysfunction or if there's something else going on here. Can you suggest some solutions or advice to help us get through this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing both physical and emotional factors affecting your ability to achieve penetrative sex, including possible erectile dysfunction and concerns about vaginal tightness. I recommend consulting a healthcare professional to address potential underlying issues such as erectile dysfunction, stress, or any physical discomfort your wife may be experiencing. A doctor or therapist can offer tailored advice and support, which may include treatments for erectile dysfunction or guidance on relaxation techniques and communication for both of you.

My dad's PSA level is 8.62 and his prostate weighs 65 grams. The MRI shows BPH but everything else looks normal. Should he consider surgery or can this be managed with medication?

A PSA level of 8.62, combined with a 65-gram prostate and a BPH diagnosis from an MRI, suggests that medication may be a good first approach, but surgery could be considered if symptoms are bothersome or if medication is not effective, according to the Cleveland Clinic and the Mayo Clinic. A biopsy is not automatically indicated with these findings, but your doctor will likely discuss this further with you based on the MRI results and your father's symptoms.

I've been diagnosed with multiple mild hydroureteronephrosis caused by a 7.1 mm stone in my upper ureter. There are also two stones in my right kidney (4.9 mm and 6.9 mm) and multiple stones in my left kidney with the largest being 4.7 mm and 2.2 mm. What should my next steps be? Can this be treated with just medications or will I need surgery?

Given the combination of stones and mild hydronephrosis, a multi-pronged approach is likely needed. The 7.1 mm stone in the ureter is likely to require medical or surgical intervention, while the smaller kidney stones might be managed medically, followed by a more targeted approach if necessary.
