Hiya sex witch

Hope ur having a good one!

I have a sexual health question. Im 28yo M and am as far as i am aware overall healthy, but sometimes i have trouble orgasming during sex, but rarely during masturbation. Im aware that contrary to popular belief men dont always orgasm 100% of the time and that there is nothing wrong with having difficulty with "keeping it up" so long as its not health related (i dont usually have difficulty with this part specifically, i just feel from experience that some times this is forgotten among people so i wanted to mention that)

I enjoy sex with my partners and im mentally very in the mood for it! Im not really nervous and havent felt pressured with them but some times it takes a very long time for me to finish, like more that 1.5 hours and up to 2 or 3 one time, and understandably my partners dont usually want to go that long lol i also find it frustrating because i feel the need around the 30-40minute mark but like i dont get that final push if that makes sense?

I did online searching and most answers are kinda wishy washy about causes other than excess masturbation, ive cut down on masturbation because alot of places say that that can be a cause but i only masturbated like once or twice a week and now im down to twice a month but it still happens.

Ive also heard that a too tight circumcision can lead to desensitisation and is what im kinda thinking this might be, i was circumcised at birth and have what the forskin restoration website ( www.restoringforeskin.org ) says is a RCI-0 or maybe RCI-1 which are considered super tight or tight respectively, both of which can lead to lack of sensation. And am considering maybe working on restoring my foreskin due to this, but i wanted your opinion on how like legit this all is considering it kinda sounds idk farfetched to me? Like being able to just stretch the skin back out with tape, is that even a thing? And does this sound like a possible cause?

Thanks for all your hard (no joke intended)'work and ur also awsome!

P.S. tumblr is being fucky on my phone all the time so if this is not anonymous please ignore/dm me to say make it anonymous again or whatever tanks

hi anon,

thank you so much for your question! it sounds like you've put a lot of thought into it already, and it was very interesting to read.

I have some hesitation in declaring that something is physically the matter with your penis, mainly because you mention that orgasm tends to come at a much more typical speed when you're masturbating. in the case of a physical problem I'd usually expect to see similar results whether you were having sex solo or partnered, which to me suggested it might be more of a mental/emotional blockage here?

but, having said that: I'm not a healthcare provider! and it sounds like a visit with one to discuss your observations might be really beneficial at this point.

while foreskin restoration is a thing, it's also a thing that doesn't have much research backing it up, and long-term results aren't very well known. consulting with a urologist before attempting a restoration sounds like it would be a great idea for you, as they could help confirm whether your foreskin is the problem and advise you on safely practicing restoration if it's an appropriate treatment. or, if that isn't the case, they're likely to have a much better idea about what else might be causing your situation.

best of luck!

You know what? Fuck it. I’m a transgender man, I had abdominal phalloplasty with Dr Curtis Cetrulo in Boston. He sold dozens of trans people on a new method of abdominal with all these promises of good sensation, good aesthetics, minimal scarring, and urethral lengthening without an arm graft (which is typically needed in abdo phallo for people who want urethral lengthening). I started having surgery with him in 2021 and had my SIXTH surgery with him early last year. For reference, phallo is often done in 3-4 surgeries, give or take with repairs/revisions and different surgical plans. When I consulted, he told me four surgeries, which then turned to five. And somehow turned to six and I still wasn’t done! I had thick knots of scar tissue and no sensation at all, not to mention I never even had a neourethra constructed. The plan was constantly changing and I made the mistake of trusting him and trusting the process.

In August last year he left Boston and moved to California to continue operating. It doesn’t seem he works on trans people anymore and is no longer offering phalloplasty, and I desperately hope he’s not. It was clear he didn’t know what the fuck he was doing, and the urologist was complacent and didn’t have proper training either. Cetrulo was allowed to experiment on us, under the guise that it was a successful and fully developed method of phalloplasty. He was not honest about its completion. And when it started to catch up with him, he abandoned his remaining patients and moved across the country. With NO repercussions for the way he treated us.

Now I’m waiting for a complete redo using a different graft site with a new doctor, who has taken on many of Cetrulo’s former patients.

See this article? It talks about all accomplishments and his innovations for people with skin burns and other injuries requiring microsurgical work. No mention of the transgender people he treated. The dozens of people he lied to and disfigured. What about us? Why does he get to pretended he didn’t ruin the lives of so many people. I am permanently disfigured because of the work he did on me. I have to live with that medical trauma from a man who didn’t really care about me, who dodged questions, and was inconsistent and unreliable.

And why is he getting away with it? This Harvard grad with a superiority complex. Because 1, we’re transgender, and the medical system has a history of failing us. Cetrulo is comparable to Kathy Rumer and Butcher Brown. Bailey Sarian has a video on Dr Butcher Brown, I recommend giving it a watch if you have an interest in true crime. And number 2, the medical boards and medical systems are fucked up.

I want my trans and nonbinary (etc) friends to know what he did to our community. The damage he’s done. And the lack of consequences for his actions. Word of mouth is so so important in LGBT spaces when it comes to medical care, ESPECIALLY in bottom surgery spaces.

Attention trans guys, nonbinary people, or anyone else interested in or curious about phalloplasty!

My name’s Milo and I’m a trans guy (he/they) who is starting the process of getting phalloplasty. I’m planning to document my process on here and will be posting photos through the recovery process.

Any graphic images will be kept under a readmore with warnings. It’s incredibly hard to find post-op photos of phalloplasties, so I want to do what I can to contribute my experience for anyone else looking into it. I’ll be using the tag #phallojourney so it should be easy to search! Feel free to also send me questions about my experience as things go on!

So far, I’ve only had an initial consult with a urologist about starting the process. We talked about the type of surgery I wanted, some options for additional procedures, and a little about the timeframe I’ll be looking at. I debated between phalloplasty (phallo) or metoidioplasty (meta), but I ultimately decided that I wanted to go with phallo. One of my big goals is being able to stand to pee, which wasn’t a guarantee with meta, due to length. I also decided that I wanted a vaginectomy (closing of the vagina) but wasn’t interested in scrotoplasty (creating a scrotum). My doctor was great about showing me the different options and talking to me about what I might want. I also decided that I would want glansplasty (this creates the mushroom head look that people think of when they think of a penis) and will be getting urethral lengthening.

There are always risks of complications with surgery, but the two big things my doctor warned me are regarding the urethra. Essentially, it can get blocked or a hole can form and cause leakage. Both of these are fixable though, so if you’re interested in phallo, don’t let these possibilities dissuade you.

The form of phalloplasty I’ll be getting is called Radial Forearm Flap, or RFF. RFF uses the skin on your forearm to create the new phallus and extended urethra. One of my next steps is going to be undergoing hair removal on my arm to prepare it.

As you can see, the hair I have is relatively light, but we still want to remove whatever we can.

I also will be scheduling with a plastic surgeon that my urologist is referring me to in order to go over more of the details. I’ll make sure to update once I have that appointment.

For now, thanks for joining me on this journey as I prepare for my phallo!

Qualifying Life Events

Summary: Set in 2007, when Mulder finds a concerning lump, he and Scully discuss health insurance. 

Word count: 1405

This was insipred in part by this post by @unremarkablehouse

@today-in-fic

Read on AO3 or continue below

2007

Mulder was soaping up his balls when he felt it. 

A lump.

On his testicle.

It was pea sized. Hard. And in forty-six years of ball soaping, he’d never felt it before. 

The edges of his vision darkened, and he leaned against the cold tile of the shower wall. He took deep breaths, trying to bring his panic under control. 

It could be anything. 

It didn’t have to be cancer. 

Right? 

He would have shouted for Scully, right there and then, if she’d been home. But she was at work. Mulder rinsed off, and in nothing more than his boxers, headed to his office to consult Doctor Google. 

.

When Scully arrived home, she was annoyed she didn’t smell dinner. They had discussed this: on nights she got home after seven, he needed to cook dinner. How hard was this to remember? She’d even put a schedule on the refrigerator to remind him. 

“Mulder!” She knew she sounded annoyed. She didn’t care.

“In here,” he called from his office. Scully put down her stuff and stomped across the living room. If he tried to explain to her how some shit about aliens had kept him from cooking dinner, she was walking right back out the door and going to her mom’s. 

She slammed open the door and paused. He was sitting there, in only his boxers, looking at the computer. If that wasn’t strange enough, when he turned to face her, she saw his panick face. 

Her anger dissolved and she crossed the room. “What’s wrong?”

He grabbed her hand. “I need you to look at something.” He stood, and started pulling down his shorts.

“Mulder, I’ve seen that before,” she said, trying to lighten the mood.

He grabbed her hand and placed it on his balls. “There’s a lump.”

Scully’s stomach dropped as she started palpating his testicles. She felt it. 

“Well?” Mulder asked. “I’ve been looking things up on the internet. It seems like the likelihood it’s nothing or I’m dying is fifty-fifty.”

“The internet isn’t good for you,” Scully murmured, continuing to feel the lump. Louder, she continued, “I’m not an expert, but I think it’s more likely a cyst than a tumor. But you need an ultrasound and a consult with a urologist.”

“Can you do the ultrasound?”

Since Mulder had been in hiding, Scully had been doing his physicals at home. A few times she’d brought him to the hospital for a blood draw, wanting to keep an eye on his cholesterol. But this — this she couldn’t do herself. 

“No. I’m not a radiologist. I’m not confident in my ability to tell a cyst from an early stage tumor.” She let go of his balls and stepped back. 

He pulled his shorts back up. “What do we do?”

She had long feared something like this would happen — that Mulder would need medical care and would have to come out of hiding for it. 

“We make you an appointment for an ultrasound.” She tried to keep her voice calm. Detach herself from this situation. He was a patient. Don’t think about anything else. “You can go with your Anthony Blake ID and pay out of pocket. It should be less than $500. It should hold up if no one tries to run it for insurance.”

“Then what?” 

“Then we will know what it is.”

Mulder started pacing. “What if it’s not just a cyst? What if they need to do a biopsy or something?” 

She grabbed his hand and pulled him to her. “Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. If the ultrasound isn’t conclusive, we’ll figure it out. Ok?”

He grunted. She patted him on the back before pushing away. “I’ll order some pizza. Go put something on the TV.”

.

“What if it’s not nothing?” he whispered to her. He’d been lying in the dark, unable to quiet his mind and sleep. 

She rolled towards him and put a hand on his chest.

“I know you want to wait and see,” he said, still staring up at the ceiling, “but my mind is going crazy and I need to know we have a contingency plan.” Mulder had looked up how much it cost to treat cancer. Sure, they could afford a $500 ultrasound, no problem. Even a $30,000 biopsy would be fine. Not how he wanted to spend 30 grand, but fine. A couple million for cancer treatment? They didn’t have that. “I’ll need health insurance.”

“I know.”

“Can we get me health insurance?”

She sighed. “I think the Gunmen could have figured something out, but I’m not convinced your I.D. will hold up. Plus, we need to get you the insurance before there is any record of this lump, or else it will be a pre-existing condition.”

“So ‘Fox Mulder’ needed health insurance yesterday?”

She stroked his chest. “This is why I want to wait. If it turns out ‘Anthony Blake’ needs treatment, then we can start the process of getting ‘Fox Mulder’ insurance. And then none of the diagnostic work will be on your chart.” 

He grabbed her hand, the one that was stroking his chest. “So, what will bring me down is a mass on my balls. Not the government, not the aliens… mother fucking cancer.”

“We don’t know it’s cancer. It’s likely a cyst.”

He rolled his eyes. That had to be the twentieth time she’d said ‘likely a cyst.’

“Well, I guess if I do come out of hiding and get arrested, the government will pay for my treatment in jail.” 

She sighed. “Mulder, they aren’t going to arrest you. If they wanted to, they would have already.”

He let go of her hand and scrubbed his face. “You keep saying that.”

“They know where I live. Yet they have never been out here to search for you. They. Don’t. Care.”

What she was saying was logical, even reasonable. But he couldn’t shake the fear. But he could shove it aside, for the moment. “Ok, assuming they really don’t care, how do I get health insurance without a job? Just call an insurance company?”

Scully retracted her hand from his chest. “We’ll get married and add you on my plan as a dependent. That will be significantly cheaper than purchasing individual insurance.” 

He froze. Slowly, he turned his head to look at her. He could just make out her face in the moonlight. “Did you just propose?” 

“I proposed a plan to get you health insurance. And anyway, you’ve already proposed to me half a dozen times.”

“Do you want to get married? Other than for the insurance?”

“I… I don’t know that getting married would change anything for us. I’m committed to you, and I think you are to me.”

“I am.”

“So,” she took a breath, “the main difference it would make is in health insurance and taxes. But none of it matters if you’re in hiding, so it didn’t make sense to bring it up.”

He reached out, taking her hand again. “I want to marry you. And not just for the health insurance.”

A smile tugged at the corners of her mouth. “That’s very romantic.”

“What can I say? I’m a romantic guy.”

They settled into bed, him wrapped around her. His mind felt more at ease, now there was a plan. He drifted off to sleep, thoughts of their wedding displacing fears of cancer. 

.

A year passed. ‘Anthony Blake’ had his ultrasound, and it came back conclusive that the lump was only a cyst. Thoughts of weddings and coming out of hiding were put on the back burner, until one day the FBI approached Scully. They needed Mulder’s help, and all would be forgiven if he assisted them. 

It turned out coming out of hiding involved a lot of paperwork. New driver’s license, access to bank accounts. Setting up retirement crap again. Trying to figure out what to do with his life, now that he could do anything. 

One night, when he knew Scully wouldn’t be home too late, he cooked her favorite meal (that he could make) and put a cloth on their old table. He lit candles, and put on what could only be described as ‘make-out’ music. The table set, the food ready, he added the final touch. 

A print out. The form to add a dependent to a health insurance plan, due to a qualifying life event. And on top of the form, Mulder placed a ring.

One in every two women will suffer a urinary tract infection (UTI) at some point in their life. 

But for women like Angela Dullaghan, what is usually an easily curable infection has ruled her life. 

The 61-year-old has suffered with chronic UTIs since childhood and estimates she has spent £9,000 on treatment.

"For years, I thought it was my fault," said Angela. "It impacted on my work, my relationships and my social life." 

Angela, who lives in Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, said she had seen five NHS urologists since attempting to get treatment for her condition over the past two decades, and has often felt dismissed. 

Angela Dullaghan says she tried everything she could think of to get rid of her UTI

"One consultant said to me, it sounds as if you know more about this condition than I do," Angela said. 

Another high-fived her after she acknowledged it was unlikely he could help her, she added.

The Chronic Urinary Tract Infection Campaign (Cutic), an organisation campaigning for better recognition of the condition, said this lack of medical awareness is what pushed them start their work. 

"Around the beginning of 2016, a group of patients got together and decided that we really needed to do something," said Carolyn Andrew, one of Cutic's directors. 

Its first objective was to address UTI testing, as the tests available often fail to pick up on chronic and recurrent infections. 

This is something that Angela has experienced first-hand: 

"There have been times when I have been absolutely crying and pain and discomfort, send a urine specimen to the GP's surgery and there's nothing abnormal detected," she said. 

Christine Terzo says it is 'about time chronic UTI sufferers are listened to'

Christine Terzo, from Ruthin, Denbighshire, has also suffered with chronic UTIs at several points during her life, most recently for the past nine years. 

The 64-year-old, who was forced to retire early due to her condition, said it has "shaped her whole life."

Christine also said she was being told there was no infection in her bladder and denied antibiotics when she was in serious pain. 

"I had steroid cream. I had pessaries. I had oestrogen cream. I had all sorts of things when really all I needed was antibiotics," she said.

Prof Jennifer Rohn is part of a team trying to develop better testing and treatment for UTIs

Prof Jennifer Rohn from University College London, whose research focuses on chronic and recurrent UTIs, added "old-fashioned" tests used for UTIs can be especially bad at picking up on chronic infections. 

"Basically, the bacteria have ways of getting through the [bladder wall] and setting up shop inside the cells.

"And of course, when they're inside the cells, the immune system can't see them. Also antibiotics - most of them cannot get in there."

What is a UTI?

UTIs are usually caused by bacteria, most commonly from a person's own bowels, entering the urinary tract through the urethra, the tube that carries urine out of the body

Symptoms of UTI include a burning feeling on passing urine and the sensation of needing to pass urine frequently, fever, shivers and pain

Chronic UTIs can be caused by that bacteria entering the lining of the bladder

It was due to this lack of adequate testing and treatment available Dr Catriona Anderson set up her private clinic, Focus, where she often treats patients with chronic UTIs. 

There, the team uses more detailed tests which can identify bacteria in lower numbers. 

Cutic estimated 1.7 million women across the UK suffer with chronic UTIs, and Dr Anderson said it would be possible to run these sensitive tests in the NHS for that amount of people. 

"It's not easy to apply this sort of test to huge populations, but actually you can run it for the number of patients that have this condition," she said. 

'I felt listened to' 

Both Angela and Christine found relief in the past few years upon discovering Cutic's Facebook support group. 

They pursued private treatment with Prof James Malone-Lee - an expert in chronic UTIs - and other consultants at the Harley Street Clinic in London on the advice of other sufferers. 

"Finally, after 30-odd years, I felt listened to," Christine said of her first visit to the clinic. 

However, while both Angela and Christine are both now in treatment, their condition continues to impact heavily on their lives. 

Angela said that factoring in travel, accommodation, medication, and consultation, she has spent "in the region of £9,000" over the past seven years on her UTI, and still budgets about £100 a month to go towards medical expenses. 

Christine was referred to the only NHS specialist clinic in the UK, at the Whittington Hospital in London.

While this eliminated some costs, she still had to pay for the train fare to London and back to north Wales for her appointments, something that she acknowledges many people would be unable to afford. 

"I'm very fortunate, but it's still a chunk out of my money," she added. 

Christine Terzo says that before she began treatment, she thought she was having a mental breakdown due to doctors dismissing her condition

Raising awareness and making treatment more accessible is one of Cutic's main aims going forward, after they successfully helped have chronic UTIs added to the NHS advice page earlier this year. 

The group are also focused on raising recognition of the condition in children, with zero specialists being able to treat them. 

The Welsh government said: "Where possible health boards provide treatment locally but sometimes more specialist treatment elsewhere is needed.

"NHS Wales is developing a 10-year plan to detail how it will meet the standards set out in the Women and Girls Health Quality statement."

The Best Approach to Male Infertility Treatment Depends on the Cause

Infertility is the term which is commonly used to describe the inability to conceive a child. If you and your partner have been trying to get pregnant for a period of one year or longer then you may wish to consult your doctor and ask about fertility assessment. Male infertility accounts for around forty percent of the 2.6 million couples who have tried without success to conceive a child here in the United States. Unfortunately around half of these men will never be able to father children. However, the rest of these men may be able to become fathers with the help of male infertility treatment.

 Different Causes

 A doctor cannot decide on the right course of male infertility treatment until the cause of the problem has been determined. Male infertility can be caused by a variety of factors such as disease, sexual dysfunction, hormonal imbalances, injury, infection, poor lifestyle choices and medical treatments such as chemotherapy.

 Before deciding on the appropriate male infertility treatment the doctor will check the medical history of the patient to look for underlying causes. The patient will also be given a thorough medical examination and his semen will be analysed in order to establish the number and quality of his sperm cells. Best Urologist in Jaipur

 Various Options

 One the doctor knows what is causing the problem then a course of action can be chosen. In some cases natural infertility treatment is the best option. For example, the patient may simply need to stop smoking or take certain supplements to correct a deficiency. Living an unhealthy lifestyle and eating the wrong foods can seriously impair the fertility of both men and women. Kidney Stone Surgery in Jaipur

 In other cases male infertility treatment may be as simple as taking a certain medication. If the problem is one of sexual dysfunction the doctor may prescribe sexual enhancement drugs and recommend a course of counselling. If the patient has a low testosterone level then the problem can be rectified with injections or oral pills that contain this hormone. In the event that that the infertility problem is due to an infection, the treatment might come in the form of a course of antibiotics.

 When the cause of the problem is serious, male infertility treatment becomes more complicated. If the patient has a low sperm count or an obstruction, male infertility treatment may comprise of sperm retrieval. With this process an opening is made into the scrotum and sperm cells are collected from the epididymis, which is the part of the male reproductive system in which spermatozoa mature.

 Sperm washing is another male infertility treatment. This practice involves the separation and concentration of the patient's strongest and most vigorous sperm in order to inseminate it into the female's uterus. During sperm washing prostaglandins and white blood cells are also removed from the semen to boost the probability of conception.

How to Manage Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) Effectively

Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are common bacterial infections that affect millions of people each year. They occur when bacteria enter the urinary tract, leading to uncomfortable symptoms such as pain, burning during urination, frequent urges to urinate, and cloudy or strong-smelling urine. If not managed effectively, UTIs can spread to the kidneys and become more serious. Here’s a guide from the best hospital in Surat — SIDS Hospital — on how to manage UTIs effectively, including preventative measures, treatments, and lifestyle adjustments to help alleviate symptoms and reduce the risk of recurrence.

1. Recognize the Symptoms Early

Early detection of a UTI can help prevent complications and speed up recovery. Common symptoms include:

● Pain or burning sensation when urinating

● Frequent urge to urinate even when the bladder is nearly empty

● Cloudy, dark, or strong-smelling urine

● Lower abdominal or pelvic pain

If you suspect a UTI, contact the best urologist in Surat promptly to confirm the diagnosis and start treatment if necessary. Early management is essential to avoid complications.

2. Get the Right Treatment

For most UTIs, antibiotics are the standard treatment. The best urologist in Surat will typically prescribe antibiotics based on the severity of the infection, the specific type of bacteria involved, and your health history. It’s crucial to take the full course of antibiotics as prescribed, even if symptoms improve before finishing the medication, to prevent the infection from returning or becoming resistant to treatment.

In cases of mild UTIs, some doctors may recommend a “wait-and-see” approach along with pain relief to see if symptoms resolve on their own. However, this is usually for mild, uncomplicated UTIs in individuals without underlying health issues.

3. Stay Hydrated

Drinking plenty of water is essential when managing a UTI, as staying hydrated helps flush out bacteria from the urinary tract. Increasing your water intake can help reduce symptoms and may even speed up recovery.

● Aim for at least 8–10 glasses of water per day: Proper hydration dilutes urine, making it easier to flush bacteria from the urinary system.

● Avoid sugary or caffeinated beverages: These can irritate the bladder and worsen symptoms.

4. Use Over-the-Counter Pain Relief

UTIs can be uncomfortable, but over-the-counter (OTC) pain relievers can help manage symptoms. Acetaminophen or ibuprofen can relieve pain and reduce inflammation. In addition, there are OTC urinary analgesics specifically designed to alleviate the pain and urgency associated with UTIs.

However, remember that while these medications help relieve symptoms, they do not treat the infection itself. Always consult a healthcare provider at the best urology hospital in Surat before taking any new medications, especially if you have other health conditions.

5. Adopt Good Hygiene Practices

Good hygiene can prevent bacteria from entering the urinary tract, helping to reduce the risk of recurrent UTIs. Simple habits can go a long way:

● Wipe from front to back after using the bathroom to prevent bacteria from the anal area from reaching the urethra.

● Empty your bladder after sexual activity to help flush out any bacteria introduced during intercourse.

● Avoid using irritating products: Avoid douches, scented feminine products, and harsh soaps in the genital area, as these can disrupt the natural balance of bacteria.

6. Consider Dietary Adjustments

Certain foods and drinks may irritate the bladder and should be avoided during a UTI:

● Reduce caffeine and alcohol intake: Both can be irritating to the urinary tract and can increase the frequency of urination.

● Limit spicy foods and artificial sweeteners: These may aggravate UTI symptoms in some individuals.

Some studies also suggest that cranberry juice may help prevent UTIs by reducing the ability of bacteria to adhere to the urinary tract walls. While it may not treat an existing infection, including cranberry juice or cranberry supplements in your diet may help prevent future UTIs.

Final Thoughts

Managing UTIs effectively requires a combination of prompt treatment from the best urologist in Surat, good hygiene, dietary adjustments, and preventive strategies. Staying hydrated, following good hygiene practices, and seeking medical advice early can all make a big difference in recovery and preventing future infections. If you experience frequent UTIs, don’t hesitate to work with your healthcare provider to develop a plan that keeps your urinary tract health on track. With the right approach, you can reduce the discomfort of UTIs and lower the risk of recurrence, leading to a healthier, more comfortable life.

Common urology procedures you should know about

Introduction

Urology uses a variety of procedures to address a wide range of difficulties, from benign disorders to more serious diseases. Here's a summary of several common urological operations that everyone should be aware of, particularly those given at Urokul, Kulkarni Reconstructive Urological Centre, led by Dr. Sanjay Kulkarni, the Best Urologist in India.

Cystoscopy: This method is useful for identifying bladder infections, tumors, and stones. It can also be medicinal, allowing doctors to remove tiny bladder stones or tumors while performing an inspection. At Urokul, Dr. Sanjay Kulkarni and his skilled staff use this technology to deliver precise diagnoses and therapy.

Ureteroscopy: In ureteroscopy, a ureteroscope is inserted into the ureters, and the tubes connect the kidneys and bladder, just like in cystoscopy. Direct visualization of the ureters with ureteroscopy can facilitate accurate diagnosis and treatment, guaranteeing that patients receive comprehensive care at Urokul.

Transrectal Ultrasound (TRUS) Biopsy: A TRUS biopsy is a method used to detect prostate cancer. During the operation, an ultrasound probe is placed into the rectum to take images of the prostate. If any questionable spots are discovered, tiny amounts of prostate tissue are collected for laboratory investigation. This method is critical for the early detection and effective treatment of prostate cancer. Urokul, led by Dr. Sanjay Kulkarni, specializes in this treatment and uses cutting-edge imaging technologies to improve diagnostic accuracy. 

Laparoscopic Surgery: Laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive procedure for treating a variety of urological diseases, including kidney disease and prostate problems. Small incisions are created in the belly, and the surgery is performed with specialized instruments while the internal organs are viewed on a monitor. When compared to traditional open surgery, this approach usually causes less discomfort, faster recovery, and less scarring. Dr. Kulkarni and his expert surgical team at Urokul are educated in cutting-edge laparoscopic methods to offer the best possible outcomes for patients. 

Prostatectomy: One common therapy for prostate cancer is a prostatectomy, which involves surgically removing the prostate gland. Both radical and partial prostatectomy are possible. The malignancy's stage and the patient's general health dictate the procedure type. Urokul provides patients with comprehensive care and support during the prostatectomy procedure, guaranteeing that Dr. Sanjay Kulkarni is knowledgeable and attentive to their needs.

Conclusion

Understanding these common urological procedures can assist people in making informed decisions regarding their health. If you or someone you know is suffering from urological symptoms, you should consult a certified urologist.

5 EFFECTIVE TIPS TO MANAGE A LEAKY BLADDER

Struggling with a leaky bladder can be both challenging and stressful. Urinary incontinence, the loss of bladder control leading to urine leakage, affects millions of men and women worldwide, impacting their quality of life. Some people ask why do i pee when i laugh too hard, maybe because bladder control, reflex incontinence or extreme urine. Fortunately, with a few lifestyle changes and effective techniques, knowing the difference between stress and urge incontinence, you can manage symptoms and improve bladder control.

1. PRACTICE DAILY PELVIC FLOOR EXERCISES

Strengthening your pelvic floor muscles can significantly improve bladder control. Kegel exercises, when done consistently, can reduce urinary leakage and support bladder health.

2. MONITOR YOUR DIET

Certain foods and drinks, like caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods, can trigger bladder irritation, making urinary incontinence symptoms worse. Cutting down on these triggers may improve your control and help you manage a leaky bladder.

3. STAY HYDRATED – BUT BE MINDFUL

Drinking plenty of water is essential for overall health, but try to balance it throughout the day to avoid sudden urgency. Avoid drinking large amounts of water right before bedtime to prevent nighttime leaks.

4. AVOID LIFTING HEAVY WEIGHTS

Straining while lifting can put unnecessary pressure on your bladder and worsen leakage. If lifting is unavoidable, make sure to use proper technique or seek help when possible.

5. MAINTAIN A HEALTHY WEIGHT

If you find these lifestyle changes aren’t enough, consult a healthcare provider, such as a Doctor Urologist, for additional support. They can discuss further treatment options, including medications or therapies designed to address incontinence.
