I've been using delay spray for the past 7-8 years to help with PE, but I haven't really paid attention to the instructions all that time. Now my partner and I are trying for a baby and there's a chance we might have conceived, but nothing is confirmed yet. I'm just worried if the delay spray could have any effects on conceiving or on the embryo or fetus that's developing. Could it be a potential issue?

Delay sprays typically contain local anesthetics like lidocaine or benzocaine, which are generally considered safe for external use in small amounts. However, prolonged or excessive use could potentially affect sperm motility. Its advisable to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice, especially when trying to conceive.

I recently had a urine test that showed RBC 23 HPF, and I'm a bit concerned. I did an ultrasound and X-Ray KUB, and both came back normal. Been experiencing a burning sensation when I pee. I tried some homeopathy medicine for a month, and the results looked normal, but then another urine test a month later still showed RBC 23 HPF. What could be going on? I'm really worried and could use some advice.

The presence of red blood cells (RBC) in the urine can indicate various conditions such as urinary tract infection, kidney stones, or inflammation in the urinary tract. Since your ultrasound and X-Ray KUB results were normal, it's important to address the burning sensation in your urine. I recommend taking a course of antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin 500mg twice daily for 7-10 days to treat any possible urinary tract infection that may be causing the symptoms. Additionally, you can take Phenazopyridine 200mg three times a day for 2 days to help relieve the burning sensation. It's also important to stay well-hydrated and avoid irritants such as caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods. If the symptoms persist or worsen, further evaluation by a urologist may be necessary.

what cream or oral medicine can help treat phimosis without needing surgery i really want to avoid surgery if possible

For mild to moderate phimosis, topical steroid creams and stretching exercises are often the first line of treatment, with the goal of softening and stretching the foreskin to allow it to retract more easily. Topical steroid creams, such as betamethasone valerate (Betnovate) or hydrocortisone, are commonly used. Stretching exercises, when combined with cream use, can further enhance the foreskin's elasticity and ability to retract
