I'm wondering if masturbating twice a day could be affecting my weight. I'm aiming to gain weight and I've been hitting the gym every day. Does masturbation have any impact on building muscles or weight gain?

Masturbation does not directly cause weight loss or hinder muscle growth. To gain weight and improve muscle mass, you should focus on a balanced diet rich in protein and healthy fats, along with a consistent workout routine at the gym. Consider adding a protein supplement

I've noticed a lump under my testicles for the past few days. It's not really painful, but if I play or masturbate, I start feeling a dull ache in my testicles. When I touch it, the lump doesn't feel very hard, more like a worm-like structure. Also, sometimes my scrotum feels heavy and looks like it's hanging lower on one side. What could this be?

My dad has been dealing with frequent urination for a long time. The reports show no infection, but he still goes way too often even though he doesn't drink much water. He also struggles with controlling it because of the frequency. Is there a permanent fix for this? Could surgery help solve the problem?
However, frequent urination can also indicate an underlying problem. Some of these may include kidney or ureter problems, urinary bladder problems, diabetes, and prostate gland problems.
