I'm really having some trouble during intercourse. When I do oral sex, my erection is strong, but when it comes to penetration, I just can't seem to find the right spot, and I start to lose my erection. I've only been married for two weeks, so this is all new to me. Could you please guide me on what I might be doing wrong or how I can keep my erection?

Its not uncommon for men to experience difficulty maintaining an erection during vaginal intercourse, especially in the early stages of marriage. This can be due to anxiety, stress, or the pressure to perform. It may help to focus on relaxation, communicate openly with your partner, and consider consulting a healthcare provider if the issue persists.

I have a 4.2mm and 4.5mm kidney stone in my left kidney with hydronephrosis and calyceal separation of 9mm. My prevoid volume is 289cc and PVR is 20cc which they say is insignificant. Can you explain what the 9mm and 20cc measurements mean? Do I need surgery for this or can it be treated with medication?

The 9mm refers to hydronephrosis severity, and 20cc PVR is normal; stones this size often pass or dissolve with meds.
