View allI'm having some trouble during sex because the time we spend in bed isn't as long as I'd likeit's only about 57 minutes. I'm really feeling down about it. What can I do to possibly improve this?
Its normal for sexual duration to vary, but if youre unhappy, techniques like pelvic floor exercises, using the "start-stop" method, or consulting a doctor for guidance on premature ejaculation can help. A healthy lifestyle and open communication with your partner also play a big role.

I'm curious about using coconut oil or Vaseline for anal sex. Are they safe options for lubricant, or should I be looking for a specific gel or oil that's meant for this purpose? Would love some guidance on what's best to use.
As a doctor, I would recommend avoiding coconut oil or Vaseline as lubricants for anal sex, as they can break down latex condoms and may cause irritation. It's best to use a water-based or silicone-based lubricant specifically designed for sexual activity to ensure comfort and safety.

Found out I have a 19mm right PU junction calculus and a 10mm right renal calculus with mild hydronephrosis on the right side. Do I really need surgery to remove these stones or are there any medicines that can help instead?
For your 19mm right PU junction calculus and 10mm right renal calculus with mild hydronephrosis, surgery is likely the most appropriate treatment option, particularly for the larger stone. While medications can help with pain management and sometimes assist in passing smaller stones, the 19mm stone is unlikely to pass on its own and may require surgical intervention
