Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

You need proper clinical examination and investigations.
Investigations include routine hemogram,RBS,Lipid profile,LFT,RFT,ultrasound of abdomen.
Ultrasound of abdomen can exclude many conditions.
Treatment can be started after clinical findings and investigation reports.
Some of your problems like depression,small size and erectile dysfunction may be due to psychological causes, so consult psychiatrist also.
Get well soon.

Take Care
