I'm looking at my semen culture report, and it mentions a "scanty growth of periurethral contaminants" in the growth section. I'm a bit worrieddoes this mean I have some kind of infection? Could you help me understand what this might mean for my health?

Question

I have been dealing with a 5mm kidney stone and Im not sure what steps to take to manage it. Also, I have PCOD with an ED of 21mm, and Im struggling with irregular periods. I weigh 63 kg and my height is 51 cm. My doctor advised me to lose weight, but Im not sure if thats the right step or if there are more serious issues I should be worried about. Can you guide me on how to tackle these health concerns?

Question

I'm really wondering about what to do next. I was using Triamcinolone Acetonide Ointment USP 0.5 for phimosis for the last couple of months while I was in America. Now that I'm in India, I'm finding it hard to find the exact same thing. I've heard about Betnovate and Diprovate G as possible alternatives. Could one of these be a good replacement, or is there something else I should consider? I'm honestly a bit concerned about switching and just want to make sure I'm continuing with the right treatment.

Question

So my husband's sperm count came back as nil after his recent test, and we're quite concerned about this. The volume is measured at 2ml, and the viscosity seems normal. However, the report mentioned the presence of 45 pus cells and prostatic cells. I'm really worried about whether this means he can still become a father. Can you help us understand what might be going on and if there's anything we can do?
