My father has grade 1 prostate enlargement at 56cc and is currently on medications like martifur, tamsulosin hydrochloride, solicept, and b complex. He's very weak and using a catheter to pass urine, so surgery isn't an option for him right now. Can grade 1 prostate be cured with just medications, or is surgery the only way? His health is fragile, and we're really hoping medicine alone can help. What would you suggest?

View allI'm dealing with some issues like premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, and a low sex drive. I've been taking makardhwaj vati for the past two weeks, one tablet a day, and I'm feeling better. Can I keep taking it, and if so, for how long? Is it safe to use over the long term, or are there any potential side effects I should be aware of?
Makardhwaj Vati is an herbal supplement commonly used to support male sexual health. While it may help with issues like premature ejaculation and low sex drive, its long-term safety isn't well-documented. It's generally considered safe in moderate use, but I recommend consulting a healthcare provider to ensure it's suitable for your specific condition and to avoid any potential side effects with prolonged use.
