I'm a bit concerned because my sex life used to be good, but recently I've noticed my penis isn't getting erect like it used to. I'm not sure what's going on and it's worrying me. Could there be an underlying issue causing this?

Erectile dysfunction can have various causes, including stress, anxiety, underlying health conditions, or medication side effects. It is important to consult with a doctor to determine the underlying cause. In the meantime, you can consider using medications like Viagra (sildenafil) at a starting dose of 50mg as needed, taken about 1 hour before sexual activity. However, please consult with a doctor before starting any medication for erectile dysfunction.

Question

I'm looking to get surgery because I've got a hydrocele on my right side. Could you tell me how much this kind of surgery would cost?

I've been dealing with a kind of mild to medium pain in my testicles and I don't have any other symptoms. The doctor checked me out and mentioned something about slight epididymitis and put me on levofloxacin antibiotics. It's been about 10 days on the meds, but I'm not really seeing any change. Any idea why it's not improving? How long does it normally take for epididymitis to get better, and do you think trying a different antibiotic might help? I'm a bit worried and would appreciate some guidance.

Question

I've been feeling really tired and weak all the time, and it's been getting to me. Every time I go to the bathroom to urinate, my legs feel weak too. It's pretty concerning, and on top of that, I've been dealing with erectile dysfunction. I'm worried about these symptoms, and I'm not sure what's going on. Could you help me understand what might be causing this?
