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'm 24 and I've been masturbating a lot, almost like it's become a habit I can't break. Lately, I've been feeling really low and weak because of it. I've noticed that the nerves on my penis are super visible, and I constantly feel sensations there, even when I'm just sitting around doing nothing. It's kind of embarrassing to say, but I've been needing to urinate like 23 times within a span of just 4 hours, which is really affecting my daily life. This whole situation is really distracting me. What should I do?

I'm experiencing some discomfort and it's been worrying me. It started with pain in my lower abdomen, and after a while, I began feeling pain in my penis and the nearby pelvic area. I've had IBS for quite some time, and I'm wondering if this penile pain could be related to my lower abdomen issues and IBS. Does that make sense? Could they be connected?
Recurrent vaginal yeast infections can be challenging to manage. Since you've already taken two doses of fluconazole (FAS 3-kit) and still experience recurring infections, it's essential to consider other factors contributing to the recurrence. *Possible Reasons for Recurrence* 1. *Hormonal changes*: Your periods might be triggering the recurrence due to hormonal fluctuations. 2. *Incomplete treatment*: The initial treatment might not have fully cleared the infection. 3. *Underlying medical conditions*: Certain conditions, such as diabetes, can increase the risk of recurrent yeast infections. 4. *Antibiotic use*: Recent antibiotic use can disrupt the natural balance of vaginal flora, leading to yeast overgrowth. *Next Steps* 1. *Consult your gynecologist again*: Discuss your recurring symptoms and ask about further treatment options. 2. *Consider alternative treatments*: Your doctor might recommend alternative antifungal medications, such as clotrimazole or miconazole, or a longer treatment course. 3. *Maintain good hygiene and lifestyle habits*: Continue to follow your doctor's advice on hygiene, fluid intake, and dietary changes. 4. *Probiotics and dietary supplements*: Certain probiotics and dietary supplements, such as lactobacillus acidophilus, may help maintain a healthy vaginal flora. *Fluconazole Use* While you can take another dose of fluconazole, it's essential to consult your doctor first. They will assess your situation and determine the best course of action.
