I'm really worried if masturbation and ejaculation can affect my height and growth. I've heard that it might cause stunted growth, and it's stressing me out. Can you tell me if there's any truth to this?

I've been diabetic for 10 years and my doctor recently told me to lose weight because my diabetes is worsening. Would weight loss surgery help control my diabetes better? What are the potential risks if I decide to go for it?
Weight loss surgery can be helpful in obese diabetic patients. Most of our patients were able to come off their diabetes medications following weight loss. It is difficult to comment on whether you would benefit from weight loss surgery as i do not have any details about the type of your diabetes, medications and your weight. You may want to consult a qualified diabetologist.
