I'm a 24-year-old and I've been using Viagra to have better sex. I'm worried because it's become a habit, and over the past year, my penis isn't getting as erect as it used to. It would get hard about 2 to 3 times a day before, but now it doesn't. Even during sex, it gets hard but goes soft really quickly. I'm wondering if this is happening because of the Viagra, and Id really like some advice on what I should do.

Taking Viagra regularly without medical advice can sometimes lead to psychological dependence, where natural erections feel less strong or consistent. Stress, anxiety, or underlying health issues can also contribute. To address this, avoid further use of Viagra for now, focus on a healthy lifestyle (diet, exercise, sleep), and consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment options, such as managing psychological or hormonal factors.

Can varicocele grade 1 be fully treated without surgery? I've heard about homeopathy but not sure if it actually works for this condition. Are there other non-surgical options that might help?
Yes, grade 1 varicocele, which is the mildest form, can often be managed without surgery, especially if there are no significant symptoms or fertility concerns. Non-surgical options like lifestyle changes, certain supplements, and embolization can be effective alternatives. While homeopathy is often considered an alternative medicine, there is no scientific evidence to support its effectiveness in treating varicocele

I'm 13 and from Pune. I've been in the habit of masturbating daily, sometimes more than once, and now I'm worried because the skin on my penis has been pulled back. It seems like I've kind of circumcised myself due to all the rubbing, and it's freaking me out a bit. It's awkward because I don't know what my parents would think if they saw it. It's really stressing me out that my penis is now without foreskin. What should I do?
-It's understandable to feel upset, but it's important to remember that this is a natural part of growing up and not something to be ashamed of. You might want to talk to a trusted adult, like a doctor or parent, who can help you understand what's happeni
