Snitching to the mom would ruin your relationship with the patient. his social skills are pretty good to me if hes getting laid at his age. based on vignette, testosterone levels dont seem to be an issue. and suggesting decrease in masturbation is not medically relevant. The most lucrative next step would be to schedule next appointment like you would with any patient. Dont overthink this question. its straight forward! keep it simple!

This doesn't make sense to me at all. What will change by the time of the next appoinment ???? Or are they trying to say that his behaviour is normal ??? Isn't it excessive ??

elasticscatter  It said the next ROUTINE examination (like, his next yearly checkup). Basically, it's saying carry on as usual and don't do anything differently based on this info. +1
