Can I take Duralast 30mg twice in one day if I want to use it once in the morning and again at night? And is there a stronger pill out there that can help with delaying ejaculation just for one-time use?

Duralast (30mg) is typically prescribed for once-daily use, and taking it twice in one day may increase the risk of side effects. For delaying ejaculation, there are other options like Priligy (dapoxetine), which is specifically designed for on-demand use. It's important to consult with your doctor before adjusting the dosage or trying new medications.

I've been dealing with some issues related to urination and I'm worried it might be connected to my past habits. I started masturbating when I was 16, but I've stopped for over a year now. Even so, I'm experiencing night falls and a delay in urination. Could this be related to what I used to do, or might there be another cause? I'm really concerned and wondering what steps I should take to address this.

It's good that you've stopped the habit, but it may take time for your body to fully adjust. Difficulty with urination and nightfall can sometimes be related to underlying factors like stress, hormonal changes, or prostate health. I recommend consulting a healthcare provider to evaluate your symptoms and discuss potential treatment options.

An ayurvedic doctor says he can treat my undescended right testicle that's still up in my abdomen without surgery should I trust this approach or is surgery the only real option? I'm worried about risks if I delay proper treatment

With hormone treatment, your child is given shots of a hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin. This could cause the testicle to move to the scrotum. But hormone treatment often is not recommended, because it's much less effective than surgery.
