My mother is 58 and she is diabetic from last 5 years. She is taking Tab Amaryl 1mG, voglitor (0.2mg 500). Recently after Dexa scan we found that her bones are getting weak and there is a high risk of fracture, she is on medicine like tab Dolo, Tab Uprise D3, Tab Calcimax, Tab Osteofos, Tab pregaba. She is also taking Cranpac-D for immunity. She is getting repeated UTI from last 4 months and each time same bacteria responsible for this is Escherichia coli. Doctor advised Septran DS after going through the Urine culture report. But the problem is the infection returns just in a week after discontinuation of Septran DS. What could be the root cause of the problem, please suggest a permanent solution to this problem.

The root cause if low immunity, which is the main reason for infection to return. Ask her to take tab. Chandraprabha vati (dhootpapeshwar company) 2 twice a day just before meals. These will also be beneficial in diabetes. If she takes regularly, she won't suffer from regular uti.

Until recently, broad spectrum antibi...more

It usually happens with mirena during initial 6 mth but usually menses stops at all after 6 months which resumes again when mirena is removed. So have patience or get it removed if it's very much troublesome.

Asked for Male, 44 years old from Coimbatore

My son, six years old, was hospitalized thrice when he was three years old with high fever - 105 F. Each time he was treated with antibiotics and discharged after about 10 days of hospitalisation. Third time it was diagnosed that he had bilateral urinary reflux (grade 4). He was on a maintenance dosage of trimethoprim. We performed reflux procedure at Coimbatore and he had no fever for about 1.5 years. Last December he had one more UTI and was treated with antibiotics at home. Nuclear scan done two years ago indicated his left kidney was scarred and shrunk. Functioning 33%. We repeated the scan last month and the functioning of left kidney has reduced to 27%. His vitals are normal (blood pressure, urea level, creatinine level) We are worried that his kidney may shrink further and lead to lower functioning and other complications. Is it possible to stop the shrinkage and strengthen the functioning? Is it possible that his kidney would grow in future?

Premature ejaculation is very common problems account for 30 percent of normal male suffer from this issue
It is very common misconception and self diagnosis made after seeing porn videos
Please don't compare yourself with Porn Star
Ejaculation is very normal for 2-3 minutes
Don't rush for the sex
Try to be relaxed
Talk to your partner
Orgasm's for female different from male
Stimulate her
Do plenty of foreplay
Your partner is backbone of your treatment
