I'm really worried because my sperm count has dropped and my penis feels weak. I used to be addicted to drugs but I've stopped now, and I'm not seeing any improvement. What should I do to get my reproductive health back on track?

Congratulations on quitting drugs, a crucial step towards recovery; to address low sperm count and penis weakness, consider consulting a urologist or an andrologist for personalized guidance, and in the meantime, adopt a healthy lifestyle by eating a balanced diet rich in antioxidants, exercising regularly, managing stress, and getting enough sleep, as these changes can help improve fertility and overall sexual health.

View allI'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.

I'm dealing with a situation that's been worrying me: my penis bends to the left when it's erect, and my foreskin doesn't pull back easily; when I try to force it, it hurts. I've talked to my wife about this, so that's a relief, but I really need a solution. Could someone please provide some advice on how to handle this?
