Ive got these three kidney stones, around 10mm each, and Im a bit worried about them. One has already moved into my bladder and looks like the other two are on their way. Im on alfuzosin and drinking enough fluids, which seems to help with urination. Im curious to know when and how these stones will pass through. Could you provide some insights? Im reaching out from India.

View allI've noticed there's blood in my semen and it's got me a bit worried. I did a urine culture, semen analysis, and semen culture; everything came back negative except they found pus cells between 20 to 25 in the semen analysis. Is this something I should be concerned about, like an infection, or is it something normal?
Pus cells found in semen analysis indicate the presence of infection. To treat this infection, you can take antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin or Levofloxacin. It is important to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed by your healthcare provider.

I'm having trouble maintaining an erection during sex with my partner, even though I can get one during masturbation and foreplay. Its just during actual penetration where it becomes difficult to keep it up. I even tried taking Viagra 30 minutes before intercourse, but it didnt really help much. What can I do about this?
It sounds like you might be experiencing performance anxiety or a psychological component affecting your ability to maintain an erection during intercourse, even though you can achieve one during masturbation or foreplay. It's important to address any stress or anxiety related to sexual performance. I recommend consulting a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation, which may include physical or psychological factors, and to discuss potential treatment options beyond medications like Viagra.

I'm 17 and have been wondering about how often it's normal or healthy to masturbate. Im a bit worried if there's any harm or risk to my health from doing it too much. Can you give me some guidance?
Masturbation is a normal and healthy part of human sexuality, and there's no specific frequency that's considered "right" or "wrong"; as long as it doesn't interfere with daily life, relationships, or mental health, masturbation is generally not injurious to health, but excessive frequency (e.g., multiple times a day) may lead to temporary physical or emotional issues, so moderation is key.
