I'm a bit concerned because my father has had laser prostate treatments twice before, once in 2011 when his prostate was 50mm, and then again in 2014 when it was 60mm. Despite that, he still has issues with prostate enlargement. By August 2015, his prostate had grown to 76mm. We decided to try ayurvedic treatment, and by October 2015, it's down to 56mm. Is this kind of fluctuation normal, and should we be worried about long-term effects or stability, especially since he has gone through both laser and ayurvedic treatments? Any advice on what to keep an eye on or consider moving forward?

I've had a slow urine flow since childhood and was recently diagnosed with a high bladder neck or bladder outlet obstruction. The doctor said surgery isn't suitable for me right now. Are there any permanent treatment options in ayurveda or homeopathy that could help without needing surgery?

A bladder neck obstruction may occur at birth due to connective tissue or muscle issues. This can cause a severe obstruction of the upper urinary tract and can lead to kidney malfunction, which can sometimes be fatal Homeopathy may offer some relief for the symptoms of bladder outlet syndrome (BOO), but it is not a cure for the underlying condition. While homeopathy can be helpful in managing symptoms like frequent urination and discomfort associated with bladder infections (cystitis), it cannot address the physical blockage or structural issues causing BOO

I'm experiencing vaginal penetration during sex, but I'm ejaculating within just 5 minutes. Is this normal, or am I finishing too quickly? If it's quicker than usual, could you give me some advice on how to last longer?

its normal anything less than 90 seconds falls under rapid ejaculation.
