Male fertility problems plz help

Asked anonymously on 2nd July, 2022 at 11:12 am

It is easily treatable through the Ayurveda medicines.

There are so many causes for low sperm count like varicocele, hyseocele… Some infections, sexually transmitted infections, including gonorrhoea... Ejaculation issues, undescended testicles, Hormone imbalances.

Problems with sexual intercourse like erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, painful intercourse.

Exposure to radiation, X rays, overheating the testicles.

Elevated temperatures impairs sperm production and function… Like sitting for long periods, wearing tight clothing or working on a laptop computer for long stretches of time also may increase the temperature in your scrotum and may slightly reduce sperm production.

So better to avoid all these.

Alcohol & Tobacco use, smoking, Emotional stress, Depression and overweight also causes low Sperm count n low motility.

Take food items rich with vitamin C. vitamin D and zinc.

Start taking hot milk twice a day also two to three dates in the morning and in the night with milk.

Avoid junk food, oily and more spicy food, alcohol, tobacco, tension and anxiety.

Start doing brisk walk or running or cardio exercises for at least 1 hour a day.

I am suggesting u some ayurvedic medicines.

Take dhatu paushtika churan one teaspoon in the morning & in the night.

Take tablet shukar matrika bati one in the morning and one in the night.

Take tablet Brihat Bangeshwar ras one in the morning one and one in the night after food.

All three preferably with milk or with water.

Do all the above suggested treatment for 4 months and see the results.

If you don't get satisfactory results then please go to your family doctor or a good sexologist or urologist.

You can also contact me on my private chat or directly on my clinic numbers.

We can send you the medicines by courier.

Asked anonymously on 23rd June, 2022 at 8:30 pm

It is not acne.Its bacterial infection. You need to apply Antibiotic ointment to it. To prevent frequent infections, you should go for laser hair removal. it will keep the area clean and hygienic.

There is NO medicines (tablets, capsules, goli, bati, oil, tail, cream, powder, churan, vaccum pumps, tension rings, rings, exercise, yoga. or any other type of medicines or procedures) available in the world that could Increase the size of the penis (i.e. length & girth.. motai of penis).

Even if one is ready to spend lacs of Rupees.

Size of penis is not important for satisfactory sexual relationships.

For this one should have a good hardness in the penis & should take sufficient time before discharge.

So please forget about increase in size of penis.

If you have any problem in getting hardness in the penis or you are suffering from quick discharge, then you may contact Your Family Doctor or chat with me on my private chat.

Or you can contact me in my clinic

We can send you the medicines by courier also
