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.

I have bilateral varicocele with sizes 2.3 mm and 2.6 mm, diagnosed as grade 1. I'm really hesitant about surgery has anyone successfully treated varicocele using just ayurvedic or natural remedies? Looking for options that don't involve going under the knife.

Grade 1 varicocele may not need surgery‚ÄîAyurvedic therapies like leech therapy, herbs, and lifestyle changes help in some.

I've been dealing with this issue and could really use some guidance. In my younger days, I masturbated a lot, often without lubricant or sometimes using soap. Now, the head of my penis is really dry, and if I dont put on moisturizer twice a day, it ends up burning a lot. What can I do about this? Is there something else I should be using or looking into?

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
