I've been wondering about a few things and wanted to get your advice. I'm curious if a penis size of 12-13 cm is considered good for sex, and are there any natural ways to increase size? Also, I tend to release sperm quite quickly, often within a minute, and I wonder how I might control that better. Does masturbation actually make your penis size smaller? I'd love some recommendations on foods that could help with penis enlargement and improving sperm health. Is it okay to shave regularly down there, and I also spend a lot of time nude at home; could that be harmful in any way?

I have a 12mm kidney stone and my doctor recommended surgery but I'm really hoping to avoid it. Are there any other options or treatments that could help pass or dissolve the stone without going under the knife?

It is impossible to pass a 12 mm kidney stone as it is too big to move through the urinary tract. Also, such a big kidney stone is highly unlikely to dissolve through oral medication and thus requires surgery for safe removal.

my penis hasn't grown since childhood and stays around 3 inches when erect is this normal or could there be an underlying issue are there any surgical options to address this

A penis length of around 3 inches when erect may suggest a condition called micropenis, which can have hormonal or developmental causes. It's important to consult an endocrinologist or urologist for proper evaluation. Surgical options like penile lengthening procedures exist but are considered only after medical assessment and counseling.
