I've been thinking about my habits recently. I used to masturbate a lot, but I've now stopped for about a week, and I haven't watched any porn either. Is it okay to completely stop, or is it healthier to do it every now and then?

Stopping masturbation for a week is unlikely to cause harm, and it's okay to abstain or reduce frequency voluntarily; whether to resume masturbation or maintain abstinence depends on personal preferences, values, and goals; consider focusing on overall physical, emotional, and mental well-being, rather than frequency of masturbation.

View allI have an 18mm stone in my renal tube but haven't had any issues for a year can it be treated with just medicine or is surgery necessary? How safe is surgery and what would you recommend in my case?
Kidney stones should be removed by surgery if they cause repeated infections in the urine or because they are blocking the flow of urine from the kidney. Today, surgery usually involves small or no incisions (cuts), minor pain and minimal time off work.

So my husband's sperm count came back as nil after his recent test, and we're quite concerned about this. The volume is measured at 2ml, and the viscosity seems normal. However, the report mentioned the presence of 45 pus cells and prostatic cells. I'm really worried about whether this means he can still become a father. Can you help us understand what might be going on and if there's anything we can do?
A nil sperm count, also known as azoospermia, can make it difficult to conceive naturally. However, there are treatment options available. Your husband may benefit from a consultation with a doctor specializing in male fertility. In cases of azoospermia, medications such as Clomiphene or hormonal treatments like Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) may be prescribed to help increase sperm production. Additionally, surgical procedures like Testicular Sperm Extraction (TESE) or Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration (PESA) can be considered to retrieve sperm for assisted reproductive techniques like Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) or In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). It's important to consult with a specialist to determine the most suitable treatment plan based on your husband's specific condition.

I'm a 34-year-old and I'm concerned about my sex life. I'm noticing that the duration is really short, like it only lasts about a minute. On top of that, my sex drive has been pretty low too. Is there anything I can do to make it last longer and increase my desire?
Yes you can use it. but consult with your doctor first
