Dear Doctor, I also have another concern regarding my sexual health. Whenever I have sexual thoughts or become sexually aroused, a small amount of clear fluid (pre-ejaculate/precum) is released from my penis. I usually stop the arousal by diverting my mind before ejaculation because I want to avoid the odor and stains that occur after ejaculation. Is it medically normal to stop at the pre-ejaculate stage, or is it better to allow ejaculation to occur? Could repeatedly suppressing sexual arousal before ejaculation have any harmful effects on my health or contribute to any urinary, prostate, or sexual problems? Thank you for your guidance.
Hello Doctor, I have been experiencing dizziness on and off for some time. When I stand up or walk, I feel unsteady, as if I might fall. I also experience the same sensation while sitting on a bike or in an e-rickshaw. There is no spinning sensation, but I feel a loss of balance. I recently underwent a full body health check-up. Some of the important findings are: * Vitamin D: 13.7 ng/mL (Deficient) * Vitamin B12: 167 pg/mL (Low) * Platelet Count: 117,000/µL (Low) * HDL Cholesterol: 23.7 mg/dL (Low) * LDL Cholesterol: 131.4 mg/dL (Borderline High) My blood sugar tests (Fasting Glucose and HbA1c), thyroid profile, kidney function, and most other blood tests are within the normal range. Could these abnormal values be related to my dizziness and balance issues? Please let me know what could be the possible cause and what further evaluation or treatment you would recommend. Thank you.
