I've been dealing with a urinary tract infection that lasted for nearly 2 months, from mid-February to mid-April. I initially thought this was why I couldn't ejaculate after masturbation during that period. Even though I'm now cured of the UTI, I'm worried because things aren't back to normal. After an orgasm, only a little semen comes out, and my penis feels really dry all the time. I'm really scared about this situation but I'm hesitant to visit a doctor because I'm still single. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

Hi there..dry ejaculation ie man doesn't ejaculate semen after climax or releases very little.. many causes like repeated ejaculations use up al body's semen and hence further ejaculate can be dry, or Blocked sperm duct (ejaculatory duct obstruction), Certain medications used to treat high blood pressure, enlarged prostate and mood disorders, Genetic abnormalities of the reproductive system, Male hypogonadism (testosterone deficiency), retrograde ejaculation is common cause of dry ejaculate. Any surgery done over prostate, urethra could also cause.. sometimes dehydration also causes less semen.. have more fluids, don't be anxious about this, have proper nutritious food, maintain hygiene in private parts.. consult sexologist and urologist once.. there is nothing to be ashamed or scared to visit doctor for this problem since your single, as this needs evaluation and treatment as this could lead to infertility in future.

I'm dealing with a varicocele and I'm wondering if I can still go to the gym and continue working out. Could you let me know what to expect with exercises and whether they could affect my condition?

Not all varicoceles require surgery. Surgery has the potential to cause testicular damage..... However, the primary treatment of varicoceles is surgery and indications include: Pain....infertility ...To prevent testicular atrophy..... All methods involve ligation of veins to prevent abnormal blood flow. The recurrence rate is usually less than 10%.... Consult urologist......
