I'm planning to start a family, but I've been struggling with getting a proper erection lately. I've never had problems before, and my sex life used to be good. This has been happening for the past few months. I don't have any medical issues or take any medication, so I'm a bit worried and could really use some advice on what might be going on.

Would removal of the prostate result in erectile dysfunction?

Removal of prostate can happen with or without removal of surrounding nerves based on the patient's condition. Persons whose nerves are spared may have erectile dysfunction for mostly 2 years or so post surgery which regains back slowly. Persons whose nerves are removed may have permanent erection issues and may need medications for it.

Is it possible to increase panis size by 2 inch without surgery. Please help me i am very depressed

Many pumps, pills, weights, exercises and surgeries claim to increase the length and width of your penis. But, there's little scientific support for nonsurgical methods to enlarge the penis. And no trusted medical organization endorses penis surgery for purely cosmetic reasons.

My dad is scheduled for laser surgery to treat his urinary bladder stone and prostate issue, but the surgeon mentioned he won't operate on the left kidney stone because it's small around 5.5mm. The report also mentioned a cortical cyst, which the surgeon says isn't a stone, but we thought it was a 15mm stone. Can you clarify what this cortical cyst is and what we should do about it?

He just needs prostrate surgery and bladder stone removal. As his left kidney stone is very small and doesn't require surgical intervention. Nothing to worry about cortical cyst.
