I am a 69-year-old male with an enlarged prostate and am currently taking Tamsulosin. My doctor has recommended a TURP procedure, but I am concerned about potential side effects such as loss of ejaculation, erectile dysfunction (ED), or incontinence. Are there safer or other options available?

I have abnormal vaginal discharge that started around 2 days ago. It's a light green color, looks like cheese, and has a noticeable smell. I am not currently taking any medications and am 29 years old. My period was supposed to come 3 days ago but hasn't arrived. What could be causing this discharge and what should I do?

I’ve been very nauseous this entire day and have been trying my best to eat, but in the past 3 hours it has worsened and it hurts too much to eat. I have very sharp pain localized in my stomach area. I’m not using any medication and I’m 16 years old. I have anxiety and a fear of throwing up. I’ve had similar symptoms 6 years ago, and these symptoms are almost always there with varying intensity. Drinking tea and talking to a counselor makes me feel better, but my parents getting mad at me makes it worse. I’ve had constipation, tightness in the belly, difficulty breathing, and shivering. I saw a doctor 2 months ago and had a lab test on my stool for any bacteria, which came out negative. I’ll be starting mental therapy soon. I have no history of alcohol, drugs, or smoking.
