I've noticed a big drop in my semen volume over the last 30 days it went from around 4ml to just 1ml, sometimes only a couple drops when I masturbate. I'm 31, not diabetic, haven't had any surgeries, and I'm not on any meds. What could be causing this and which specialist should I see about it?

I've had a hydrocele in my right testicle since 2008 and got surgery in 2015, but the size still isn't normal and it hurts when I touch it. Why hasn't it gone back to normal and what could be causing the pain even after surgery?

It's understandable to be concerned about the persistence of your hydrocele and the pain you're experiencing. While hydrocele surgery, or hydrocelectomy, is usually successful, there are instances where the hydrocele may not completely resolve or cause post-surgical pain

I'm a 13-year-old boy and I've been really concerned about my habit of masturbation. I usually do it about twice a day, and lately, I've been feeling really tired and skinny. I'm worried there's something wrong. Are there any negative side effects I should know about? And if it's a problem, what can I do to reduce how often I masturbate? I'm kinda stressed about it and would appreciate any advice you have.

Excessive masturbation can lead to physical and mental health issues. It is important to find ways to reduce this habit. To avoid masturbation, you can try the following. Keep yourself busy with activities such as sports, hobbies, or spending time with friends and family. Practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation to reduce stress and anxiety, which can trigger the urge to masturbate. Avoid triggers such as pornography or being alone in private spaces for extended periods. Seek counseling or therapy to address any underlying emotional issues that may be contributing to this habit. In addition, to help with your fatigue and weight loss, you may consider taking a multivitamin supplement to ensure you are getting essential nutrients. Also, try to maintain a balanced diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. If you continue to feel tired and skinny, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance.
