My ultrasound showed grade 5 and grade 2 varicocele in both testicles. The doctors are saying surgery might be the only option is that really the case? Are there other treatments I could try first? I'm a bit worried about what this means for my fertility and overall health. What would you recommend?

Grade 5 varicocele should be managed by microsurgical varicocolectomy Good success rate with very few complications Also can be done as day care surgery

Question

I'm dealing with 34 kidney stones spread across both my kidneys, each about 4 to 5 mm in size. I'm considering taking Cystone to help with this, but I'm not sure if that's the right approach. How should I go about it if it's recommended? What dosage and time frame would be best for something like this?

Question

I'm 16 and have been masturbating quite a bit, sometimes up to three times a day. I've noticed that the veins on my penis are becoming more pronounced and seem to be multiplying. Every day, a new vein seems to pop up, and a couple of them are really thick and very visible, even when I'm not aroused. Could you help me understand why this is happening?

Question

I have multiple kidney stones with mild hydronephrosis my KUB sonography shows a 15mm right PUJ calculus causing mild hydronephrosis and a few small left renal calyceal stones plus a 9mm distal ureteric calculus causing mild proximal hydroureteronephrosis My urologist recommended laser lithotripsy with stent placement but I'm wondering if homeopathy or ayurveda can help avoid surgery The doctor said it needs urgent removal due to the hydronephrosis but how long can I delay it Is a 15mm PUJ stone too big for homeopathic treatment
