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.

View allI'm 29 and I'm dealing with a few issues that are really bothering me. My penis is small, and I have trouble with it not getting hard when I'm having sex. Plus, I end up finishing way too quickly. It's really affecting my confidence, and I just want my penis to be bigger and thicker. Can you give me some advice or suggest something that might help?
For increasing penis size and improving hardness, you can consider taking Viagra (Sildenafil) 50mg before sexual activity. For premature ejaculation, you can try Dapoxetine 30mg. Both medications can help improve your sexual performance. However, it is important to consult with a doctor before starting any new medication to ensure it is safe for you.

I've had a kidney stone for the past 7 years and recent USG shows CKD stage 1. Do I really need surgery for the stone even though I don't have sugar or blood pressure issues? Also could my menstruation problems be related to these kidney issues?
Patient is advised for surgery,since the stone is large enough to cause abdomen pain and back ache.Nephrologist opinion is advised to the patient for further management.

I've been diagnosed with a very small reducible hernia and bilateral hydrocele. Should I consider surgery for this or are there other treatment options? I'm a bit worried about whether this needs immediate attention or if I can manage it without an operation. What would you recommend?
Hydroceles can call for surgery if they cause symptoms, become large or continue to show changes in size by about a year of age. If the hydrocele is "non-communicating," meaning there is no related indirect inguinal hernia, the hydrocele sac is taken out, often through an incision in the scrotum.
