I'm wondering how soon I can have sex now that my kidney stent has been removed. I had a ureteroscopy and laser surgery on May 11, 2017, to take out a stone from my kidney, and they left a stent in for two weeks. It was just removed yesterday, and my urine is mostly clear now, with just a bit of blood. Can you advise me on whether it's safe to resume sexual activity and if there are any precautions I should take?

After the removal of your kidney stent, its generally safe to resume sexual activity once any discomfort or bleeding has subsided and you're feeling comfortable. However, it's important to listen to your bodyif there's still slight bleeding or discomfort, its best to wait a few more days. Always consult your doctor if you have any concerns.

View allI have an 8.33 mm kidney stone stuck in my ureter about 7 cm from the bladder. Is there a chance it can pass on its own or will I need surgery? I'm currently taking Elements Uri flush syrup but not sure if it's enough to help
An 8.33 mm kidney stone stuck in the ureter, 7 cm from the bladder, has a lower chance of passing naturally, but it's not impossible. While the Urology Associates of Central Missouri indicates that stones larger than 6 mm rarely pass on their own, the precise location and other factors can influence the outcome. Your current use of Elements Uri flush syrup may help, but it's crucial to consult a urologist for personalized advice and potential treatment options.

My mom is 62 and diabetic recently got tested for a UTI and her report showed pus cells at 1015 but the urine culture came back negative for bacteria. She had her bladder removed a few years ago in surgery. Could the negative culture still mean an infection or what else might be causing the high pus cells?
continue tablet ceftas 200 mg per orally twice daily for 7 days ,culture and sensitivity of urine is advised.

I've just got my semen analysis results, and it shows pus cells in my semen at a level of 3045. I'm trying to figure out what could be causing this. On the results, my sperm count is 36 million, morphology is at 70%, and everything else seems to be within the normal range. Could you help me understand what's going on and what kind of treatment I might need?
The presence of pus in your semen, also known as pyospermia, can be caused by various factors, including prostatitis, epididymitis, urethritis, or a urinary tract infection (UTI), and despite your relatively normal semen analysis parameters (sperm count, morphology), it's essential to consult a urologist
