Dear Dr. G, I read your article on condom use with interest last week, and I must confess that I have also been having trouble with using barriers for protection.

I didn’t have a robust sex education in my earlier days, but I am still an absolute believer in safe sex.

Dear Dr G, My wife and I are in our mid-40s and have two teenage children. We don't intend to have any more kids and my wife has been on the pill to that effect. However, the pill seems to be causing more side effects in my wife as she gets older.

The gradual swelling of the testicles tends to be benign in nature.

Dr G talks about hernia.

Dr George Lee talks about varicocele and its effects.

Hydrocele and epididymal cysts may cause swelling of the testicles but are easily diagnosed in a clinical setting.

Sperm allergy is frustrating and can cause tremendous strain in a relationship.

I need to put Dr. G on the spot to debunk the myth of abstinence and prostatitis. Firstly, can you please tell me what exactly is prostatitis and is there a correlation between frequency of intercourse and prostate inflammation?

My wife and I have been married for 13 years and we have two amazing children. We are very happy now and not planning to have more.

I am a father of a beautiful daughter who is now five years old and hoping for a boy next.

As the levels of sex hormones diminish with age, this will in turn diminish the interests in sexual intimacy, more obvious in menopausal women than aging men.
