My wife is 48 with only one ovary and tube left. I'm 55 with no bad habits and had varicocele surgery 10 years ago for mild oligospermia, but now dealing with erectile dysfunction. What tests should I get to check male fertility, and is there still a chance we can conceive naturally if her remaining tube is open?

Get semen analysis, FSH, LH, testosterone; HSG for wife—natural conception is possible if remaining tube is open.

View allI'm dealing with phimosis and really don't want to get surgery. Can you tell me if betamethasone cream is available at local pharmacies without a prescription? Also, which brand or type would be most effective? I'm really stressed about this and need some guidance to manage it.
Immediate treatment is needed to avoid serious complications like restricted blood flow to the penis. A doctor may be able to return the foreskin to its original position. Sometimes surgery to remove the foreskin (circumcision) may be recommended.Yes, phimosis can often be managed without surgery. Non-surgical treatments like topical steroid creams, gentle stretching exercises, and maintaining good penile hygiene can be effective, especially in children. For adults, similar treatments can be tried, and in some cases, balloon dilation might be an option

I've been having some issues with my penile foreskinits really dry and cracked lately, and it hurts whenever I try to pull it up. A few days ago, I noticed red spots on the head of my penis, and it was really itchy. I tried using Dettol and warm water, which helped for a bit, but it's not a permanent fix. What might be causing this, and what should I do?
