I recently had stents placed in both my ureters and they were there for a week after my RIRS procedure. After the stents were removed, I tried to masturbate after a couple of days because I felt the urge, but I ended up having this weird experience where it felt like sperm was coming out but nothing actually did; it was just dry. Should I be worried about this or is it something that can happen?

After stent removal, it's normal to experience temporary changes in ejaculation, and the "dry" sensation could be due to inflammation, scarring, or residual swelling, so consult your urologist to rule out any complications or blockages

I've been dealing with itchy testicles for a year now, and it's really getting worse. I make sure to clean my genital area daily, but it tends to be dry. I've tried everythingaloe moisturizers, Vera gel, soframycin oilbut nothing seems to work for long. I get some temporary relief, but the itching is really bad at midnight, early morning, or after going to the office gym. Can you suggest any medicine or ointment that might help with this?

For persistent testicular itchiness, consider consulting a dermatologist or urologist to rule out underlying conditions like eczema, psoriasis, or fungal infections; in the meantime, try applying a hydrocortisone cream (1%) or an antifungal cream like clotrimazole, and maintain good genital hygiene, avoiding harsh soaps and wearing breathable clothing, and if the issue persists, your doctor may prescribe stronger topical or oral medications.
