I've noticed something a bit concerning recently. There have been big ants getting attracted to my urine for the past few days. I'm not sure if this is connected, but I've been under a lot of stress and have a huge workload. I've also been experiencing wet dreams occasionally. Is there any chance these things might be related?

It's possible that the ants are attracted to your urine due to the sugar content, which can sometimes be a sign of high blood sugar or diabetes. Stress can also affect your body in various ways, including increasing your stress levels and potentially influencing hormonal changes that lead to wet dreams. It would be good to consult a doctor to address both concerns, especially if you're experiencing any other symptoms.

View allmy urologist recommended surgery for phimosis but I'm not sure if it's the best option or if there are any side effects I should be worried about
It's understandable to have concerns about surgical options for phimosis, especially when you're unsure about the best course of action or potential side effects. Surgery for phimosis, often circumcision, is generally recommended when non-surgical treatments like steroid creams or manual stretching haven't been successful, or if the phimosis is causing significant problems like recurring infections or pain. Potential side effects of circumcision include infection, bleeding, and scarring, but these are usually manageable

I can retract my foreskin past the head by about an inch and a half, but I feel like the frenulum might be stopping it from going back any further. Does this mean I have a tight frenulum?
If you're able to retract your foreskin comfortably past the head but feel that the frenulum is stopping further retraction, it is likely that you have a tight frenulum. If it doesn't cause significant discomfort or other issues, it might not need medical intervention. However, if its causing discomfort or interfering with sexual activity, its a good idea to speak to a urologist who can suggest appropriate treatment options, such as stretching exercises or frenuloplasty.

I'm worried I might have phimosis since I can't pull my foreskin back all the way. Are there any non-surgical ways to manage this? I really don't want to get circumcised what are my other options?
Yes, there are non-surgical options for managing phimosis. Topical steroid creams or ointments, combined with gentle stretching exercises, are often effective in softening the foreskin and improving retraction. In some cases, practicing good hygiene and using lubricants during sexual activity can also help manage the condition.
