I'm 21 and I'm having some trouble because I can't get it hard during sex. I used to masturbate a lot, and now I'm worried if all that is causing erectile dysfunction. Could that be the reason?

Excessive masturbation, especially if it becomes a frequent habit, can sometimes lead to temporary erectile dysfunction (ED) due to overstimulation or desensitization. However, ED at your age can also be influenced by factors like stress, anxiety, or relationship issues. It's important to focus on a balanced lifestyle and consult a healthcare provider if the issue persists.

View allMy brother has grade II varicocele in his left testis and deals with mild to severe pain daily The urologist said surgery is only needed if the testis size reduces but can we consider surgery now just for pain relief Are there other ways to manage the pain without surgery
While surgery (varicocelectomy or embolization) can be considered for pain relief in a grade II varicocele, especially if it's severe and unresponsive to other treatments, it's not always the first choice. Other conservative methods like scrotal support, pain medication, and lifestyle adjustments can be tried first. If pain persists and is significantly impacting quality of life, surgery might be recommended.

I have an 18mm stone in my renal tube but haven't had any issues for a year can it be treated with just medicine or is surgery necessary? How safe is surgery and what would you recommend in my case?
Kidney stones should be removed by surgery if they cause repeated infections in the urine or because they are blocking the flow of urine from the kidney. Today, surgery usually involves small or no incisions (cuts), minor pain and minimal time off work.
