Undescended testis at 25 is unlikely to descend now.Surgery is typically required to reduce risk of cancer and infertility.

I've been masturbating about two or three times a week, and I'm worried if this could lead to impotency. I feel like my penis isn't as big as it was when I was 18, especially when it's flaccid. I can see nerves on it and also on the back of my hands. Does this mean Im getting weaker or is it normal? Am I doing it too often? Could this increase my risk of diabetes, because my mom has it?

Diabetes occur through hereditary also but not all the cases,and masturbation does not lead to impotent

I'm dealing with a varicocele and I'm wondering if I can still go to the gym and continue working out. Could you let me know what to expect with exercises and whether they could affect my condition?

Not all varicoceles require surgery. Surgery has the potential to cause testicular damage..... However, the primary treatment of varicoceles is surgery and indications include: Pain....infertility ...To prevent testicular atrophy..... All methods involve ligation of veins to prevent abnormal blood flow. The recurrence rate is usually less than 10%.... Consult urologist......
