I'm 26 and still a bachelor and a virgin. I've been worried because I've got this habit of masturbation, and I'm curious if it might affect my ability to have kids in the future once I get married. Could this be a problem for me later on?

Masturbation is a normal and healthy activity that does not cause infertility or affect your ability to have children in the future. If you have concerns about fertility, focus on a healthy lifestyle and consult a doctor for reassurance or further guidance.

I've been having trouble maintaining a strong erection during sex, and it's really affecting my ability to perform properly when the moment comes. Could you offer some advice or suggestions on what might be causing this and how I can improve my situation?

A healthcare provider can help diagnose underlying causes and recommend treatments such as medications, lifestyle changes, or therapy. Lifestyle changes: Focus on a healthy diet, regular exercise, reducing alcoholsmoking, and getting enough sleep. Stress management: Practice relaxation techniques like meditation or deep breathing, and consider therapy if anxiety or depression is involved. Pelvic exercises: Try Kegel exercises to strengthen pelvic floor muscles and improve erections. Open communication with your partner: Discussing concerns with your partner can reduce anxiety and improve intimacy. If symptoms persist, seek professional help to find the right treatment. Erectile dysfunction is common and treatable with the right approach.

I have a 3.8 cm stone and some smaller ones in my left kidney do I need surgery for this? And if yes, is it okay to wait until the first week of December or should I get it done sooner?

A 3.8 cm kidney stone and smaller ones in your left kidney likely require surgery. Waiting until the first week of December may not be advisable. Large stones (over 1 cm) rarely pass naturally and can cause severe pain, obstruction, or kidney damage. Early intervention is crucial, especially if you are experiencing pain, infection, or urinary tract obstruction.

I'm a bit worried about something that's been happening with my husband. We're both younghe's 32 and I'm 21and we've been married for six months. For the first five months, everything was fine, and he was able to insert his penis into my vagina. But for the past month, he hasn't been able to do that because it doesn't get strong enough. He can still release sperm, but the penis doesn't stay firm enough to insert. What could be causing this, and what should we do?

Your husband may be experiencing erectile dysfunction. I recommend he consult with a doctor to determine the underlying cause. In the meantime, he can try using sildenafil (Viagra) before sexual activity to help with achieving and maintaining an erection. Remember to follow the prescribed dosage and instructions provided by the doctor.
