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.

I'm dealing with a 3mm stone in my left kidney. I'm curious if there's any general medicine in homeopathy that could help me pass it. Also, is there something preventive I could take to avoid future stones?

3mm stone will usually pass through urine on its own, no need of any treatment, but keep yourself well hydrated all time so that you can avoid formation of stone further, Regarding alternative medicine sorry I have no knowledge in that so cannot advice you.
