I'm a bit worried because I used to have random and morning erections, which I assumed were normal, but for the past month they've stopped completely. I also feel like my sex drive has really decreased. Is this something I should be concerned about, or could it be a normal phase?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's not uncommon for sexual drive and erections to fluctuate due to factors like stress, lifestyle changes, or hormonal imbalances. However, if youve noticed a persistent decrease in libido and erectile function, it might be helpful to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues like hormonal imbalances or other health conditions.

View allI'm thinking about getting a frenuloplasty, and I've got a few questions. How much should I expect it to cost, and how long will it take for me to recover completely? I'm also a bit anxious about the pain level after the surgery. Is it going to be really intense? Appreciate any advice you can give!
Frenuloplasty surgery typically costs between $500 to $2,000, depending on factors like the clinic, location, and complexity of the procedure. Recovery usually takes about 1-2 weeks, with most patients resuming normal activities within a few days. Pain is usually manageable with over-the-counter medications, and any discomfort typically subsides after the first few days.

I've been having this issue where my urine culture shows Klebsiella Pneumoniae. I've done this test a couple of times over the past few months and it keeps popping up. I've tried antibiotics, but they haven't really helped. What medication should I consider to get better? I'm worried and just want to feel healthy again.
The persistent presence of Klebsiella Pneumoniae in your urine culture, despite previous antibiotic treatments, suggests a possible antibiotic-resistant strain or an underlying condition like a urinary tract obstruction, kidney stones, or a neurogenic bladder; consult your urologist or nephrologist to discuss further treatment options, which may include a urine sensitivity test to determine the effective antibiotic, alternative antibiotics like Amikacin, Gentamicin, or Fosfomycin, or procedures to address underlying conditions, and in the meantime, drink plenty of water, urinate when needed, and practice good hygiene.

I'm 28 and considering circumcision. I'm a bit worried about whether there might be any impact on size after the procedure. Also, what are the benefits of getting circumcised at this age? Any insights would be really helpful.
Circumcision at the age of 28 is generally safe and can have several benefits. The procedure can help reduce the risk of certain sexually transmitted infections, such as HIV. It may also lower the risk of urinary tract infections and penile cancer. In terms of size effect, circumcision does not have a significant impact on penile size. The most common pros of circumcision include improved hygiene, decreased risk of infections, and potential reduction in the risk of certain medical conditions. If you decide to undergo circumcision at the age of 28, it is important to follow post-operative care instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
