I've completely stopped masturbating because I used to feel super fatigued and lazy afterwards. I was doing it every night and it's become a concern for me now. I'm a 33-year-old guy, and I'm just wondering if stopping entirely is a good idea or not. Could you give me some advice on this?

Stopping masturbation completely is a personal choice and can have different effects on individuals. It is important to listen to your body and how it responds to the change. If you are feeling fatigued and lazy after masturbating, it may be a sign that your body needs a break from it. It is generally considered safe to stop masturbating completely, as long as it does not cause any physical or emotional distress. However, it is also important to find a balance that works for you. If you are experiencing any discomfort or changes in your physical or mental health, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further guidance.

I'm 26 and dealing with pain in my left testicle turns out I have grade 1 varicocele after getting a USG. Is there any way to treat this without surgery? The pain gets worse when I have strong sexual urges, stand too long, pass stool, or lift heavy stuff. I just want to get back to my normal pain-free life and start working out again

Yes, there are non-surgical treatments for a grade 1 varicocele that can help manage pain and improve your quality of life. While surgery is the most effective long-term solution, it's not always necessary for mild cases like yours. You can try lifestyle changes and over-the-counter pain relief to manage your symptoms

I'm a bit worried about something that's been happening with my husband. We're both younghe's 32 and I'm 21and we've been married for six months. For the first five months, everything was fine, and he was able to insert his penis into my vagina. But for the past month, he hasn't been able to do that because it doesn't get strong enough. He can still release sperm, but the penis doesn't stay firm enough to insert. What could be causing this, and what should we do?

Your husband may be experiencing erectile dysfunction. I recommend he consult with a doctor to determine the underlying cause. In the meantime, he can try using sildenafil (Viagra) before sexual activity to help with achieving and maintaining an erection. Remember to follow the prescribed dosage and instructions provided by the doctor.

I'm a 25-year-old woman who just got married, and my husband is 26. We're not planning to have a baby for at least three more years. However, my husband has been experiencing premature ejaculation. Could this lead to pregnancy? What steps can we take to address this, and what type of protection should I consider?

Yes, premature ejaculation can still lead to pregnancy, as sperm can be present in pre-ejaculatory fluids; to manage this, consider consulting a urologist or sexologist for guidance on treating premature ejaculation, and in the meantime, use condoms or other barrier methods as a reliable form of birth control, and consider emergency contraception like Plan B or i-Pill if you have unprotected sex.
