Reduction of glans sensitivity can be achieved through the use of both creams for numbing and behavioral methods. Nevertheless, it is recommended to visit a urologist for further consultation and tests to exclude any potentially serious underlying diseases.

Questions & Answers on "Urology" (1030)

Good evening, male, 47 y/o. For about 30 years I have been suffering from pelvic pain that arises ONLY a few hours after ejaculation. The pain originates precisely at the base of the scrotum and extends over hours to the entire scrotum and sometimes to the shaft of the penis. It arises as an itch, then a pinch, then grows in intensity until it becomes aching with a strong sense of heat accompanied by pronounced relaxation of the scrotum. Ice and (sometimes) supine position are the only things that provide temporary relief. I should add that prolonged abstinence has always given me discomfort and sensation of urinary urgency, which disappears with orgasm. Until two years ago the pain disappeared with sleep at night, so I only had regular sexual activity before going to sleep, and in this way I had a normal sex life and children. Then it began to occur EVEN THE NEXT DAY starting around noon and escalating into the evening, then (usually) disappearing the next morning. Over the years I have consulted several urologists. In 2001 the first transrectal ultrasound (all negative). Recent worsening of symptoms (i.e., their persistence even the next day) prompted me to confront other urologists, who were unable to help me. Prescribed spermioculture and Stamey test (all negative), prostate echo normal (some calcification). For the past two years I have been taking prostate supplements, anti-inflammatories, muscle relaxants, PEA etc without success. I tried acupuncture, ozone therapy, craniosacral osteopathy, TENS, pelvic floor physiotherapy (identified and treated contracted "triggers"), without success. A neurologist hypothesized muscular causes possibly related to a tempomandibular dislocation (hypothesis ruled out by maxillofacial surgeon) and prescribed Mutabon Mite 2 cpp/day which I took for three months, without success. A psychologist specializing in chronic pain has suggested nociplastic (psychogenic) pain and is helping me to manage the distress this problem causes me, but unfortunately not to reduce it as I had hoped. Thanks to her, however, I was able to accurately track the point of origin and course of the pain (so-called "somatic tracking"). On the advice of the GP I went in February to the Niguarda Hospital Pain Therapy where, with hypothesis pudendal neuropathy, I was prescribed pelvic MRI (resulted adductor enthesopathies), lumbosacral MRI (resulted disc dehydration, asymptomatic), pelvic EMG (no abnormalities), physiatric examination (no abnormalities). I have follow-up visit in September to evaluate nerve block, but in light of the negative EMG I don't know what they will say. In the meantime I have been prescribed Pregabalin 25+25 and then 50+50, which makes me sleep very well but has no effect on the disorder, so I will insist a little longer and then I think I will discontinue. I am very frustrated, I am asking if anyone reading me has any idea, if not of a treatment, at least of a diagnosis that I've never been given. Thank you.

I am also suffering from frequent & incomplete urination in the night, and have been diagnosed with BPH, wherein the urine comes out in a trickle, and I am unable to empty the bladder. This causes sleep deprivation. I am suffering this since long. In this case also I have tried many medicines, and now I am taking 1 tablet after breakfast and 1 in night. I have tested positive for prostate enlargement , and PSA tests are. negative. The last sonography test in February 2021, has shown prostate @40 gms Tablet Dynapres 0.4 1-0-0 Tablet Max Void 8 0-0-1

More detailed history and tests like Uroflowmetry and Ultrasound with Post void residual measurement will give accurate diagnosis. If it’s BPH only and not improving with medicines then might need a surgical treatment. There could be other reasons like urethral stricture or high bladder neck which is also dealt surgically.

I have ED and PE based on past experience so I consult urologist he gave duraplus 10/30 for 30 days every night currently I am not in sexual activity and I said this to doctor also then I gone to another urologist for 2nd opinion he gave tadaflo 5 for 30 days every night and duralast while having intercourse i also told this doctor that I am not in sexual activity, so please suggest me which approach is good

Male | 26

Both Duraplus and Tadalafil are drugs used for erectile dysfunction treatment. Duraplus is compounded by Vardenafil and Dapoxetine, and Tadaflo by Tadalafil. The medication is dependent on some factors, which include age, medical history, and other medical conditions. I would recommend you to see a urologist who is well-versed in erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation to get a proper diagnosis and treatment plan for your condition.

It seems that you are suffering from some form of impotence. It is advisable to have an appointment with a urologist to determine your condition and proceed accordingly. The specialist can talk about the treatment process that may include medication, therapy or any other intervention. Do not be afraid to get help, for there are several treatment options that work.

It began when I was approximately eight years old, occuring once at that time, I had to use the restroom to urinate, and upon returning to my bedroom, I experienced a strong urge to urinate again in a large volume. After that incident, it did not happen again for a long time. As I grew older and entered my teenage years, the issue resurfaced. I started urinating frequently with short intervals and in significant amounts. It can endure for a few minutes to several hours. When it occurs, my urine takes on a cloudy color, and the final urination is slightly yellow, indicating it's the last one. There is no pain, and it can happen in the morning or at night, but the nighttime instances bother me more. The pattern is intermittent, with breaks lasting weeks or months. I initially suspected diabetes and tried a diet, leading to very low blood sugar, especially since I am an active person. The urge to urinate returns when I stay up all night, possibly influenced by hot temperatures making my genital sweaty. Surprisingly, hunger or low blood sugar doesn't trigger it, however how can a diabetic individual experience decreases in blood sugar without the use of medications? Strangely, during these episodes, my hands feel dry, persisting until the frequent urination stops.
