I'm concerned about the size of my penis because it feels smaller than it used to be. I used to think it was long enough, but now I'm not so sure. I masturbate regularly, but not as often as I used to. Can you help me understand what's going on and if there's a way to make it bigger?

To address your concern, focus on overall penis health rather than solely pursuing enlargement methods; regular masturbation is normal, but excessive frequency may lead to temporary size fluctuations; consider maintaining a balanced lifestyle, including a healthy diet, regular exercise, stress management, and adequate sleep; also, be aware that there's no scientifically proven method to significantly increase penis size, and beware of unverified claims or products promising enlargement.

I found out that I have a 4.5mm calculus in my left kidney, and now I'm really worried about what I should eat to keep these stones from forming again. I already drink about 3 liters of water every day, so I'm wondering if there's a specific diet I should follow. What do you recommend?

-Keep drinking plenty of water to stay hydrated and prevent stone formation. Adjust your diet by reducing oxalate-rich foods and limiting salt and animal protein. Regular follow-ups with your doctor will ensure you're on the right track.
