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 have a 67mm kidney stone stuck in my right ureter - is there any way to get rid of it without going through surgery? I'm really hoping for non-surgical options if possible

A 67mm stone usually needs surgical removal; non-surgical options are rarely effective at this size.

I'm really worried about erectile dysfunction and was wondering what causes it. Are there specific factors I should be aware of? Also, what are the available treatment options? I'm trying to understand how this might impact me and what steps I can take.

It's important to address any concerns about sexual performance with your healthcare provider, as factors like stress, anxiety, or physical health may play a role. Instead of relying on capsules, focusing on relaxation, communication with your partner, and possibly seeing a specialist for personalized advice can be more effective for improving stamina.

I've been feeling something strange going on with my testicles, almost like a nerve is being pulled, and sometimes it's painful. I've been really stressed over the past few weeks, and I'm wondering if this could be related. What should I do?

The weird feeling and pain in your testicles, possibly related to stress, may be caused by epididymitis, orchitis, or testicular torsion, so it's essential to consult a urologist or healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and diagnosis
