Ive noticed that my sperm seems quite thick, and my partner and I are trying to conceive. I'm really curious and a bit worrieddoes thicker sperm mean somethings wrong, or could it actually be a sign of good health?

Thick semen can sometimes indicate dehydration or a temporary change in consistency, but it doesn't necessarily affect fertility. If you're trying to conceive, it's important to focus on overall health, including hydration, diet, and timing. If you have concerns, I would recommend discussing it with a healthcare provider who can evaluate your specific situation.

I have phimosis and consulted a doctor on Practo who recommended daily exercises. I tried them for a few days but didn't see any improvement. The doctor also advised against surgery. Should I keep doing the same exercises for longer or try phimosis rings available online? What treatment would you suggest?

circumcision is the surgery advised to the patient.
