I'm 19 and have bilateral varicocele measuring 2.2 mm and 2.6 mm but I think it's getting bigger. I get occasional scrotal pain, no erections, and see a bunch of veins there. I don't want surgery because it might come back. Can homeopathy really help cure varicocele? What other options do I have?

I'm currently in the hospital for a bad pain I was having, and they found a 5.7mm stone near my kidney. It shrank to 3mm, and now I'm thinking about switching to homeopathic treatment.

I'm feeling really dissatisfied with my sex life. My wife and I only manage to have sex once at night, and unfortunately, it's very shortonly around 45 minutes. I really need some advice on how to have more sex and maybe even make it last longer. I'd also love some tips on making my penis longer. Can you help?
