default
Posted on Tue, 10 Dec 2013
Question: Sir, 1 year before I had good erection but after I experienced hair loss I started taking Finasteride and used Minidoxil lotion continuously for 3 months even I used to masturbate frequently after three months I started noticing lower erection and premature ejaculation. Even I used to loose sperms in toilet. I stopped taking Finasteride tablets and noticed just some improvement. After around 1 month I was diagnosed with Harnia on left side so I got operated upon and then I saw the size of my penis turned to very small. I consulted the urologist but he asked me to wait, I saw some improvement but still even today size of my penis is half of what it was earlier and I think it is after operation. Even I see premature ejaculation. My age is 26, Male I will be thankful if you can answer my queries 1. What should I do to my normal erection and improve ejectile. I have stopped completely masturbating and taking Finasteride but I am using minidoxil lotion for my hair loss, my marriage scheduled in near future 2. Should I take some some natural things like garlic over long term that would solve my problem. I just want use some natural remedy from day to day life. 3. Anything else as care or any exercises that I should do

Sir, I have a few questions now 1. Should I use minidoxil lotion for my hair loss, 1ml of 2% lotion once in a day, hair specialist has prescribed me twice a day but I will be using once just on safer side 2. I also have been loosing few sperms in toilet when I put pressure on my stomach. 3. I am consuming non veg almost daily or eggs. Will it fulfill my bodily requirements of protein or zinc or any specific fruits that you will suggest to consume frequently 4. Should I join gym but I read somewhere that doing strenuous exercises also causes sperms to loose. 5. Should I consume 1 part of garlic daily as I read on net that consuming helps to improve erection by thinning blood and also it has some enzymes that helps improve erection. I will be thankful if you can solve my queries.
