I've been wondering about something and could really use some guidance. I'm 17 now, and I've been masturbating for around 2 years. Ive heard that semen contains zinc, and I'm worried if this could actually lower testosterone levels over time. Is this something I should be concerned about or is it just a myth?
No, masturbation does not lower testosterone levels

I have a frequent urine problem and consulted a urologist who prescribed me Pyridium, Urispas, and Alkasol syrup. After checking my urine report, he said my urine pipe is slightly shrunk and recommended surgery, but I don't want to go for it. I'm also taking Cantharis 30. Are these medicines okay or should I try something else?
yes. sx needed.
