I've been masturbating every day for the past three years and I'm wondering if this might cause any sexual issues. Can you help me understand if there are any risks? And how can I go about reducing or stopping this habit?

Daily masturbation for 3 years can lead to issues like desensitization, erectile dysfunction, or premature ejaculation, but it's not a guarantee; to stop or reduce masturbation, try techniques like mindfulness, meditation, exercise, or hobbies to redirect your energy, and consider seeking professional help from a therapist or counselor if needed.

Is it possible to pass a 6mm kidney stone without needing surgery doc I'm really worried about this and want to know my options

Around 90% of small kidney stones (smaller than 6 mm) and 60% of large stones (larger than 6 mm) pass on their own. If you have a large kidney stone or one that's blocking the flow of pee, you'll need to have a procedure to break up and/or remove it

I'm thinking about trying out this condom brand called Durex Extra Time. It has benzocaine, I think about 5%, and I've never used it before. I heard it might numb the tip of the penis a bit to help delay ejaculation. Are these kinds of condoms safe to use regularly? Could using them often have any negative effects on my penis or overall health?

Durex Extra Time condoms, which contain benzocaine (a mild local anesthetic), are generally considered safe for use. They work by numbing the tip of the penis to help delay ejaculation. However, using them frequently may lead to temporary numbness or irritation for some individuals. If you experience any discomfort or allergic reactions, it's best to discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider.
