A high PSA level and a weak urine stream in men can be a sign of several conditions, including an enlarged prostate (BPH) or prostate cancer. It's crucial for your father to consult with a doctor or urologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Is a circumcised penis a reason for premature ejaculation?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

My friend is 31 and has been trying to have kids for the last 6 years. He just got an ultrasound scan that showed left varicocele. Is this likely causing fertility issues and can it be treated with medication or does he need surgery

A left varicocele, especially in someone actively trying to conceive, could be a contributing factor to infertility. While some varicoceles don't require treatment, if it's significantly affecting sperm quality or production, surgery might be considered. Medications may help manage pain or discomfort, but they won't address the underlying cause of the varicocele
