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'm Rajesh, and I've been wondering something. My sperm doesnt really shoot out, and Im worried if that might affect my chances of getting a girl pregnant. Is this something I should be concerned about?

Is the seven coming in little quantity or not coming out at all? Are you reaching orgasm and still no sperm is ejaculated?? Do you have erection issue? Need some detail history to evaluate properly

Found a 3mm calculus in my reports is this something that requires surgery or can it be treated with medications? What complications should I be aware of based on the sonography and CT scan findings?

A 3mm calculus might not require surgery unless it causes significant pain, blockage, or infection. Medications like alpha blockers and drinking plenty of fluids can help in passing the stone.

I've noticed that my penis seems smaller in both length and width compared to how it was before, and it feels like it's shrinking over time. Is there any medication or treatment available to help get it back to its previous size?

hey, length of penis remains the same , it will not decrease , don't worry, it attains max length during erection and shrinks afterwards
